Caramel Rolls
FROZEN BREAD DOUGH CARAMEL ROLLS

2 loaves frozen bread dough
1/2 c. butter
1 c. brown sugar
1 sm. pkg. of each vanilla & butterscotch pudding (not instant)
2 tbsp. milk
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2-1 c. chopped nuts

Thaw bread, but do not allow to raise. Grease a 9"x13" pan. Tear one loaf into pieces and drop helter skelter into pan. Melt butter, add rest of ingredients and beat smooth. Pour over torn up loaf. Tear second loaf and throw on top (try to place in empty spots). Let raise 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

Place in 375 degree oven for about 30 minutes. Let cool about 15 minutes, turn over on wax paper.

I like to drop each piece of dough into a mixture of sugar and cinnamon before dropping in pan (optional).

Can also leave bread partially frozen before breaking and put all back in freezer. Set out Saturday night and bake on Sunday morning. Very good.

I like Dunkin' Donuts coffee......

I buy Dunkin Donuts Beans in their store....or...sm

Sometimes I go to the grocery store and buy Colombian beans (I love Colombian coffee, among many others) to grind - Brothers brand is really good, believe it or not. 


Also, in Dunkin Donuts while you're buying a nice cup of their coffee, they sell beans, their beans - and they had a sale - buy 1 pound, get the next one like half price.....I cannot remember, as it was a couple of months ago...but I bought 2 pounds and still have one in the fridge to grind.


I NEVER grind in the store.  I have a little $30 grinder I picked up somewhere - Target?  Wal-Mart?  Can't remember that either.....but I grind a container full (like a week's worth) at one time.  You can do more or less - it's personal choice there, or you can grind daily - it's that simple a thing.


But I'll tell you the truth - no matter that I'm grinding Dunkin Donuts beans - it NEVER tastes as good as buying it at their store... I don't know what it is - I use Half N Half (like they do) and it still pales in comparison to the ready-made Dunkin Donuts coffee in their store...


could just be a psychological thing here going on in my head about that.........*lol* 


Happy Java hunting :) 


Beach. Iced tea or lemonade?

Iced Tea. Work or play.

I love their iced tea recipe. (NM)

I think it tastes burnt. But I do like their iced coffee drinks, full of milk and sugar, LOL. nm

Latte

Frrench vanilla latte nm
!
Try a latte but ask for half a shot sm

a small drink usually is one shot, a medium larger is usually two shots - you can actually ask for decaf espresso also - there are so many things you can ask for - just tell them at your local shop what you told us here and see what they suggest.  A latte is a shot of espresso topped with milk and then foam, a mocha is chocolate milk, so I would stick with latte for now - there are also frozen drinks at Starbucks with no coffee in them at all - but cannot think of the name right off the top of my head - good luck!!


micky D's. Latte or espresso?

Hey.....here's a protest site for your latte...

Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks.

I found a recipe for homemade latte that I will try.
You liked Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper?  I thought it tasted like dirt.  But I feel your pain, also, on losing something you love.  Most people didn't like Straight Up latte, too, but I loved it. 
i didn't see the Straight Up Latte today :(
good luck with your search
straight up latte girl see inside
hey I know you said below that you tried your own version.  I was going to reply but was afraid that you wouldn't see it way down there.  Anyway....I like my coffee with 8 tablespoons of light cool whip.  Nothing else.  It's very good that way and may be similar to your latte.  Let me know if you try it!
Would have a really good recipe for pumpkin spice latte?
o
Folgers has discontinued its Cafe Latte line.
I LOVE Straight Up latte.  I don't like anything else.  I am so disappointed.  I don't know how I am going to get through 2nd shift without a latte (or two).  Every time I really like something it is discontinued, just like the Microsoft Natural Multimedia keyboard. 
For those of you that are large like me....
Where do you buy your large size bras?

I need a 40C and am having a hard time finding anything.

Aside from losing weight, which I am working on, do you have any recommendations?

Well, I have a large shopping bag (sm)
hanging in the spare room closet and have about 4-5 little stocking stuffers already purchased and in there. Does that count?
no holes donuts (donut holes ha!ha!)
navel orange

no bake cookies

Sorry, that is about all I can come up with.

As a member of a large church I am always around others. We have different sm
groups and we do dinner once a month, shopping once a week (if you can make if of course), movies once a month, etc. Then I attend a Bible study on Wednesdays with another large group of women and we will get together a lot and talk on the phone during the week, etc. This, along with my family, sister, in laws, etc., and I am far from being an introvert working at home doing MT. Been at it for 8 years.

To be honest, and don't take this the wrong way, but as an MT or anyone who works from home, you decide if you want friends, a social life, etc. We work 8 hour days or some of us work 4 hours. That leaves you lunch hour to get together with a friend or 2, after work for dinner, shopping, and a movie, and then weekends for a couple of hours. We all need balance. It is not healthy to be at home all day with no interaction whatsoever. You will begin to suffer if you continue living that way. Trust me, as a former depressed person who suffered from post-partum depression for 4 years (yes, you read that right!), I had to make a decision that I would not exclude myself from my friends and family, would make NEW friends while I was at it, and it has turned me into a very positive and fun person to be with.

I can't tell you how many parties I've hosted since coming out of my depression. My friends call me Rachel Ray with a mix of Paula Deen (I'm leaning more towards Paula), since I LOVE to decorate and entertain and be a blessing to others, ministering to them if I can, lend an ear or a hand if I can and have an "open" home where people can drop by if they need to talk about something. My life has been fantastic since overcoming depression.

I'm not saying all extroverts are depressed, but that was the reason for me.

Good luck.
what about one of those very large storage tubs--sm
you can buy from walmart for about 7 or 8 dollars. They are pretty large and you can cut a "door" in the side of it so they can get in and out. just a thought.
...myself. Actually a size 12 but still too large around the middle. nm

My, you let her down on a large part of parenting.

I'm in a large city and what you said is not true here.

Function of society at large (sm)
I think you are right to some extent. I personally try hard to keep my word and when I can't, I feel bad about it! I call as soon as I know it's not going to work and I apologize. I try hard not to say I can do something if I am not sure I can. I don't make other plans for that timeframe that I have already committed to see someone during. How is that so hard? If someone is "iffy" about something, they need to say "I don't know, can I get back with you?" Not just say yes and then forget about it. I know a lot of people these days who seem to plan several things for the same time period and then whichever one they feel like doing at the moment gets priority - regardless of who else is inconvenienced or whose time is wasted by it. (I know I'm ranting here...making me feel better...haha.) Then they don't even understand why you are angry or why it is offensive...as though you are being unreasonably demanding to think that someone is going to try to do what they said they would do. Whew.....ok, I'm done. Think I will look at my navel now...lol
Have an 18 y/o Whirlpool, top load, large capacity - sm
not one lick of trouble (knock on wood)--got it with the house (it was 10 then). Have all Whirlpool appliances except for the stove; all are 18-y/o and working great. Very reliable.

Exactly, a very large *gated* community in my state

In a city with a large gay/lesbian population, gay -sm
marriage is an everyday issue. The kids hear both sides of it. They're not isolated in coccoons, and they watch TV and see the negative ads running right now. If they go to Sunday school, then they probably get fed a large dose of fear and intolerance there, as well.

I think it IS educational for a bunch of SF kids to go see a wedding, especially if it's their own teacher. They already know she's gay. And they already know she's are real human being that they probably all love.

What they get out of the experience is a very strong reason to question the hatred & bigotry surrounding the issue of who should be allowed to marry, and who should not.
I'm large-chested, but I only wear push-ups

I wear a 42DD and I wear push-ups because even though I'm large breasted, I droop.  Push-ups provide more contour and shaping than regular underwires. 


If you are having problem with muffintop, though, you're not trying the right size.  Go to JCP or Victoria Secret and have them measure you.  Oprah says 40% of women wear the wrong bra size. 


As far as push-ups go, I really like the ones by Ambrielle, which are sold by JCP. 


Maybe she's thinking of large apartment complexes??
I would think it would be a lot harder to stop people from smoking in those types of apartments when there are maybe hundreds of apartments in a lot of different buildings like they have in big cities. I can understand not smoking in a one or two family home type apartment.
Not unless it's something extra that they just want. They

still make VERY good money for the amount of hours they work.


Sorry about the extra P! NM

Think you had a large garden or orb-weaving spider there! Scary

Guess it got moved. I suggested a large or 2 smaller

Large garden containers = excellent idea! :)

We just put every extra dollar
We could toward paying all the unsecured debt we had until we only owed for the house. Then we decided we didn't really need to be living so grandly, and we really weren't living where we wanted to be anyway, so we quit jobs, sold the house and bought a smaller one where we wanted to live outright with the profit. We had a few thousand left so hubby could take a bit of time and look for work. He's an industrial electrician, so he can really work anywhere. I decided to go in a different direction career-wise, and decided to become an MT.
It's not just MTs though I think we are extra prone to it.
I had much food for thought after talking to a friend the other day about my own antisocial tendencies. She said she had a friend who was extremely outgoing whose job had turned into a telecommuting job and she had practically turned into a hermit. My friend observed that it must be even worse for MTs who are the type of people who tend to be more introverted anyway. I thought she had a real point there.

Maybe a mall job wouldn't be so bad, if you have the time. Or volunteering somewhere you're interested in?

Weight gain, I can't help you with....I had to make peace with my big hips years ago. LOL.
And put on a few extra pounds?

I think the obese should have to pay extra for
and let's not forget the alcohol consumers.
Has anyone ever made any extra...sm

money selling things on ebay?  I have went through the closets and have a lot of things I need to get rid of.  I am posting them on ebay.  After selling those things I may open an ebay store with things I may buy cheap and resell.  I even thought about making little throw pillows and throws and things.  I can make pillows.  My mom is great at sewing and I can sew some things.  Just a thought.  Anything to make some extra cash. 


Has anyone had success selling on ebay?


I do not plan to BUT will get an extra - sm
vehicle they can use, but it will not be theirs so to speak. My parents unfortunately treated my brothers and I differently. They were allowed to get jobs while in HS, save up and buy a car which they both did. I was not allowed to work at all with in HS, therefore no way I was able to save up and buy a car. Lucky for me all my friends either were given cars or had access to one that was a family spare. My one brother was kind enough to let me use his car for the whole summer after I graduated HS as he was unable to have it where he was living at the time. My senior year in college my parents allowed me to use my dad's second car (an antique) which unfortunately the brakes failed on. I think out of guilt, and as a pre-graduation present my parents bought me a Nissan Sentra wagon so I could haul all my junk around, and so I could get to work (worked 2 jobs while at school and usually rode a bicycle but it got wreaked when I took a turn to fast and crashed). I am sure that went over like a lead balloon with my brothers but my college cost a third of what theirs did so they could not gripe too much. After that initial car I was on my own, paid my insurance, etc. though my dad did lend me the difference on the money I needed to buy a Blazer in 1989 (bank would not give me the full amount I needed) which was kind of him. But I will not spoil them by giving them a car....my neighor has gotten his daughter 3 of those new Mustangs so far, she is 17, has totaled 2 so far. I still cannot believe how stupid they are.
Found a list, and this one includes broccoli but in large amounts.

New information this morning on just how much extra put on
There is a news report just coming in on the hamburger drama. The chief of police said so much salt put on it was actually caked on, looked like shards of glass and not only that but pepper put on some heavily that the lettuce was entirely black.
Working all day Sat. for a little extra money so -
I can afford enough gas to drive into town on Sundays.

Life is Simple:
* Wake.
* Work.
* Eat (when I can afford it.)
* Work.
* Sleep.
* Repeat.
