No, It was here- I never go to the Garden Party. I remember it was the same forum as "cat threw up in the washing machine". As I remember the owner was concerned because she was expecting company and the remains of the elk were still on the lawn and the dogs were still eating it. I think the thread must have dropped off.

My wife has a beautiful garden with all kinds of lilies and hosta and many other types of flowers which I have no idea. She wins contests for our yard and we've spent a lot of money with irrigation, truckloads of mulch delivered by semi, trips far and wide to various garden stores to buy the elusive flowers... I say all that to make the point that our yard is her passion and she loves to garden. A couple years ago she went on a vacation with a girlfriend for a week or so. She left me in charge (mistake #1). I was given strict instructions on running the irrigation (we hadn't yet installed our final leg of irrigation that summer and it was hot and dry). Oh, and we have a real deer problem - they will eat her garden down to the ground if we don't spray the garden at least once a week with some "deer-away" stuff that smells like two month old horse urine. Soooo... she gave me instructions to spray all the flowers with the nasty urine smelling stuff she had kindly pre-mixed for me in the hand-pumped sprayer in the garage. Well I did my duties just as instructed, watered, and on the allotted day spent probably 30 minutes spraying the deer repellant onto all the flower beds. When I was done I brought the sprayer back into the garage and suddenly realized I hadn't smelled that horrible smell as I was spraying all the flowers. I then noticed that there were TWO sprayers in the garage. Hmm, i thought. I opened up the second one and PHEW what a smell - well that one is clearly deer repellant. So what I had I just sprayed all over the entire garden? Yes, you guessed it. Round-up. Oh my goodness. Panic set in. I ran out with a hose, but then thought, what if that makes it worse. I feverishly called the manufacturer and tried to get information on what I could do - the guy laughed and said pretty much I was screwed; once it was on the leaves there was nothing I could do. I went out and sprayed and sprayed anyway for hours. Ran the sprinkler for I think 2-3 days continuously. Wife came home. I said nothing. Flowers started looking bad in spots. Then worse. Eventually I had to fess up. And then I went out with a HUGE black permanent marker and LABELED the sprayers. Thankfully after her initial anger, she forgave me. And I wrote many checks that summer to replace flowers.

I agere - let's start a new one! Or we can just add them here :-) ****************************************************** Hamburgers Copyright, Ina Garten, All rights reserved Recipe Summary Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 10 minutes Yield: 10 to 12 hamburgers 2 pounds ground chuck 1 pound ground sirloin 3 tablespoons steak sauce (recommended: Crosse & Blackwell) 6 extra-large egg yolks 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter 12 hamburger buns Carefully mix the meats, steak sauce, egg yolks, salt, and pepper with the tines of a fork, but do not mash it.
