I am not into making my own cheddar cheeses, I don't have the dark cold cavern for aging it properly.

they have a hillside cave that is for aging, a gloriously musty place.

oh wait you mean beer bread :D

http://thepioneerwoman.com/tasty-kit...sy-beer-bread/ this one looks pretty similar to how I do it.



General Beer Bread Question: I've seen the cheese suggestions. Any recommendations for the style of beer used? Ale, Lager, Stout, doesn't matter what just something I like so I can drink the rest?

Use a beer you like to drink. Generally a darker beer will work better.

They're donating proceeds to the Clinton/Bush Haiti Fund.

I have not made it often but I knew it was good with my Rarh Oktoberfest beer.

I guess when you are old and rich you can say whatever you want :eek:


Rupert Murdoch (NWS) says he never believed the rumor that the New York Times (NYT) would sell to Carlos Slim. "The family treats it as a great heritage," he says, doubting it would sell to an outsider unless forced but "least of all to a Mexican."

Since it is so slow, Copa Starter item, Mushrooms and Feta(too mild feta I might add) and walnut salad

copa needs to work on presentation, this looked like some sort of odd liver dish :D

Yes, it is possible that ZE will open in the future. When it does you'd need to click to process the upgrade; it is not automatic.

You are correct :D. The ANC trip is also a good idea for me to blow my 45,127 miles left in my *old* Plat DL account. I may be on CC looking for another 45k to take the wife. How many SPG do you think it would take to get 45k DL?

I might be able to help you out with this one. :-:

Looks like I can do some partner transactions with Delta then my SPG transfer would only need to be about 24k points to get up to 45k miles. Does this sound right?

Thanks, sbm12!^ So - it sorta works like a 'B-up' except it's for plats!:-:

Looks like I will book sooner rather than later -- am concerned that fares will go up -- being a holiday weekend!:rolleyes:
