    Molten Chocolate Puffs With Raspberry Cream

    What a great recipe name! If I had a restaurant, this would DEFINITELY be
    on the menu; I can't imagine anybody NOT wanting to try it.

    Yeah, I was afraid of that. I may wait and make those for DH and
    take something more Asian style instead, because we'll have limited
    kitchen space. Those Mahogany wings Carol posted looked good too...

    Those Mahogany Wings are AWESOME. The recipe works well for drumsticks,
    too. I like to garnish them with chopped-up scallions. Make sure there are
    plenty of napkins!

    Yeah - I saw his posting history. I suspect that James is a
    friend of some sort. I mailed him a friendly note a couple times,
    but "it" never replied. There would seem to be two different
    personalities posting from that address. One uses capital
    letters, the other doesn't. IME, that's not something you turn on
    and off. You always do it one way or the other, not both.

    Good catch. You're right, that isn't very consistent. I also noticed
    his first post was a good 8 months before he began posting to Usenet
    regularly, which often indicates a sock puppet account. Doesn't AOL
    allow more than one username per account?

    They allow 5, I believe. I have a few friends with AOL and they
    always use each other's accounts - whoever happens to be logged
    in. These were posting through Google. So once the cookie was
    set to log in as one person, everybody on the machine used the
    same AOL account.

    The fact that it was posted through Google doesn't rule out that
    the machine is open to outsiders. Since ~[censored]~ has eluded to
    having some "hacker friends" (though we suspect she's lying),
    there's every possibility the machine has been compromised. And
    by using the AOL software, it's almost a given.

    I assume their running AOL over Cox cable, as the IP resolves to a
    COX network. Like most cable providers, Cox resells AOL internet
    service over their cable lines. The AOL email account is good,
    since my email didn't bounce (twice).

    Yeah! If I ever have a few bucks to spare, I'll mail you some nuts
    and some instant pistachio pudding. And a recipe for Watergate Salad
    to use the pudding mix in. Aw, heck. Here it is. It sounds
    terrible, but is yummy. Crash wants it with every big meal.

    I don't think we have pistachio pudding here. But I have seen the nuts.
    I'll get them some time to try.

    Heather, if I am ever unfortunately widowed, and you are single, and

    I scoff at the laws! I am a scofflaw! I was married for 10 1/2 years to a
    woman, I was never one to care about legalities!!!!

    Cute-poet-chick and I got "married" at the "Chapel of Love", aka the
    check-cashing place in San Diego. We had to show our drivers'
    licenses, and we hadn't noticed until that moment that not only was
    our hair the same in the license photos, but we had worn the same
    sweater (not the same kind -- the same identical sweater) in our
    photos, taken four months apart. From then on, our drivers' licenses
    were called our "Wedding Photos".

    Alan's Green Bean Almondine

    Thanks, Alan, and I have all of those ingredients except
    I don't like canned mushrooms, I have fresh. I'm making
    this tomorrow.

    I probably won't make it for a while, but the recipe is definitely a
    keeper... :-)

    Yeah, I'm sure that it would make the coating soft. We've never
    actually gotten as far as adding sauce. They're so good naked that
    they're gone before we can consider saucing them. I guess it just all
    depends on what you want from them. Personally, I like the crackle. I
    hate slimy skin on my chicken.

    Well, now you've done it. I can't wait to amuse Miguel with these
    "naked chicken wings", so I think I'll make some tonight for dinner
    with baked potatoes. I have to go to the store anyway...

    ROFLMAO! I saw Pat post a little bit ago. Please post your thoughts
    on them. I'm sure she'd love to hear your glowing praise!

    Also, use whichever herbs and spice you like. I'm the one who listed
    what I use. It's definitely not cut in stone.

    I didn't make them -- I'm not feeling well lately, so I got
    Miguel to stop at the store on the way home and pick up a sirloin
    tip roast instead. We cooked it on the rotisserie and had that with
    the bakers and some corn. I'm hoping to be able to try the wings on
    Thursday -- I'll definitely post my results... :-)

    I'm still
    debating between roasting or broasting. I do know a high heat is needed
    for this dish 😉

    After all these years, I still don't know what brosting is. I
    remember going to restaurants to eat broasted chicken and that's the
    most experience I've ever had with it.

    Broasting is a patented process of deep frying under pressure.

    This thread has morphed into little more than a collection of your rants,

    they don't know if they did not feed your affliction that this thread would
    have evaporated within 10 posts, and you would be looking for other targets

    <clears throat> Until recently, you did pretty much the same thing.
    I've got to develop your nonchalance so I can follow in your
    footsteps. I don't like what I'm becoming.

    I'll be the first to admit to feeding and fighting with some of those who
    ranted and defamed others and myself. I learned my lesson when I realized
    just how completely nuts most of these people are. Sane interaction is not
    possible and it's simply not worth the attempt.

    And this is what I need to emulate. It's very difficult for me,
    though. I am a work in progress. <G>


    So, you're putty in his hands?

    I reply to the threads/persons as long as they are relatively calm and
    sane.....
    If they go beyond that..I shut up.

    Thanks, Dave... that's another thing I don't have any experience with:
    a pressurized deep fryer - although I've heard of it. Isn't pressure
    frying a method some home cooks in the South use with chicken?
