Well that's weird...it was supposed to be THIS article... http://www.seriouseats.com/2016/10/how-to-blind-bake-a-pie-crust.html My fingers must have gotten tappy happy I posted the wrong article lol...but that was a good one too! Glad I'm learning all these tricks when I'm already halfway...

I can't remember who asked about blind baking.... But I have to do some, and was looking for extra tips and ideas, and ran across this. http://www.seriouseats.com/2015/03/science-of-pie-7-myths-that-need-to-go-away.html I was not wanting to use beans for weights; they always leave dimples... I...

Awesome! Thanks @ronott1 and @cmom :) I knew I could count on you guys to provide me with not one, but TWO recipes to decide on! :P I'm making both tonight (fingers crossed that baby stays asleep lol) and testing them out for turkey day! Can't wait; I love the smell of yeast in the house :D

I was looking for recipes for dinner rolls, but most recipes online don't call for any egg... I found a couple on here I might try, and noticed they have egg... So I was curious to find out what exactly the difference is. Found a good article, thought I'd share...

Aww bummer! :( It looked so promising, too... I really don't like some of the tins; lol I tried a ghost once for Halloween and it looked more like Slimer than anything :D I like to try to put as much decoration as possible to detract from the lopsidedness sometimes; if I put piping in just the...

Lol @appps, glad they turned out good :) Maybe some people just have more touchy buds, or maybe didn't eat enough dirt as a tot ha-ha :D An acquired taste, "earthy" ;) Ah, @DigMyChicks, just what I was waiting for, as I was too lazy to scroll back and find it :D I won't, however, be too...

Ha-ha @NorthFLChick, it wanted to be dessert! ;) I'm happy to hear hubby liked them; lol its nerve wracking serving something new around here lol; might as well be a 3 eyed fish the way they look at dinner sometimes :P They're hard little buggers, wouldn't think they needed to cook that long...

Works for me lol ;) It's really weird, the sugar beets from the field, the white ones, taste HORRIBLE fresh or really any way you try to cook them; I really don't know how they managed to make it to be the 2nd most available form of sugar :P I suppose because the red ones don't get near as...

Sure thing! :) They're the first thing I plant in spring, and the last thing harvested in fall; actually causes problems sometimes lol. I went overboard and planted 18 rows of beets for spring, canned those, and the 18 rows for fall are mostly still in the ground lol; the chooks ate off the...

Lol I used to get in SO much trouble with red beets from my mom's garden... I would mash them up in my play "stew", and then discovered the magic of dyeing anything white not stapled down a lovely hue of pink :D Then there's my little 6 year old, really concerned one day because her pee was...

Lucky you! Lol I have some still in the garden, buried under 3' of snow :P otherwise, I have to go 100 miles to go to a bigger grocer that has beets; living in the boonies is a drag sometimes :( But I did go find a couple jars that I canned this summer... And so e pickles, and peaches, and...

My favorite besides canned is slicing them thin and saute in butter; give them that nice crispy buttery crunch ;) Ugh lol, this is setting off a severe beet craving... And I think I saw lemon bars up there... This is not the thread to visit when expecting ROFL :P

Oh ha-ha, I didn't put how many pounds of beets that takes... See what happens when we get lazy and try to cut and paste lol :P Let's see, 1 kg = 2.2 lbs, right? (Haven't had Mr coffee yet lol) 4 1/2 lbs would equal 2 quarts, roughly, so I guess about 1 kg per quart? Lol here's a pic of the...

I usually just use cider vinegar, but you can ferment them too... My go to recipe that the kids gobble up taste a lot like the canned ones from the store, but a little zippier ;) Courtesy of the Blue Ball canning book lol, I've never had to use another one, since these are pretty delicious :)...

Oh you guys need one of these then! http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B014GJ05W8/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?qid=1451741759&sr=8-6&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=Olive+oil+mister&dpPl=1&dpID=41p2B%2BBp1aL&ref=plSrch They are awesome! Just put olive oil in it and it pumps up like a mister so you don't...

Always lol ;) it comes with the territory; I keep a spare pair of boots at my moms ha-ha :D I just like giving her a hard time because I did always ride my horse barefoot; and yes, got my foot stepped on a few times and learned to "two step" at a fairly young age ;) Lol I have sone of those...

Buttcrack! Hey at least my soft pants cover my hind quarters AND my underwear lol... My 22 to stepson used to do that until his little sister pulled his pants down in front of everyone at the fair... Lol "use a belt, boy, they make em for a reason" ;) Lol I can't STAND seeing socks with flip...

Lol I avoid it at 2 anymore, the freaks really come out after bar rush is over ha-ha ;) But, I like to call them "soft pants".. ROFL they're NOT sweats! :P Ok ok, they're pjs ha-ha... Flip flops are a must, even my mom gives me a hard time showing up to work cows with flip flops on :D Hey...

ROFL @3goodeggs, that is too funny :D You don't want to know what we see here in CO lol, especially at 2 am when there's a blizzard coming that day lol... Pj's are a common thing, with flip flops, in 2 feet if snow...to go get some s'more cupcakes :P

Usually I would say that the good thing about practice iis "its free education"... In a bakers' case, it might not be free, but usually we can eat our mistakes :D Oh... That might not be a good thing for the girlish figure if we make too many mistakes ha-ha ;)
