ID Very Fragrant Red that turns pink in heat
Comments (8)Looking forward to more pics. You know, I think it might be crimson glory (which, i think is what Seil meant to suggest. ). It's a parent of oklahoma and is considred fairly cold tolerant, for an HT. It gets mildewy- which yours is in the pic (pretty common problem with many roses and not a big deal, btw). High centered bloom is the shape of the flower. It's the shape most people think of for a rose. The center of your rose in the pic is rather cupped. Bummer you lost 2 oklahoma. Most hybrid tea roses are classed for zone 7. This is the zone which all the stems should survive the winter without freeze damage. They generally will still survive in zone 6b. Even 5b. Every climate is different tho- and perhaps Oklahoma is finicky about where you are? Lola...See MoreWant Rotisserie - Turns out as Smoked Chicken!
Comments (5)slucci, What do you mean by raw? Smoke meat does look red, but not raw. What was the temperature and where did you take the reading? The thermometer should read 180 when inserted in the thickest part of the thigh without touching bone. 90 minutes is quick unless it was a small bird. It normally takes me at least 2 hours with a five pound bird straight from the refrigerator. If using a frozen bird, especially if quickly thawed in a microwave, be VERY certain its completely thawed. It will not cook correctly if the breast is thawed but the centers of the thighs are still frozen. Leave the lid on and do place a drip pan under the bird. Also the bird should not be directly over the coals. Rather the coals should be off to one side either to the front or back, parallel with the spit. I haven't owned a kettle style grill, but I believe bricks are placed under the chicken to keep the coals to the side. carlcarter, You should have started a new thread to change topics. The nature of your questions suggests you do not have the knowledge to run the gas line safely, please hire a professional. If youÂre still tempted to do it yourself remember your insurance company will deny any claims resulting form an improper installation and you could be charged with criminal negligence if someone gets hurts or dies as a result of a leak from your DIY installation....See MoreOur Entertaining Nightmares (and how they turned out)
Comments (23)Christmas of 2005 I volunteered to do The Dinner for 10 extended adult family members; I planned a relatively simple meal & it should have been a breeze. Christmas morning, DH's nephew decides that his vegan girlfriend can join us after all - terrific, I'm serving tenderloin & the stores are closed so where do I get vegan food for someone I've never met. SIL saved the day by bringing trophy sized shrimp for appetizers & we saved some for her entree. First crisis averted. Then everyone (except me & SIL who are scurrying like rats to get food ready) are in the greatroom/kitchen drinking, eating shrimp & opening presents & DH cuts his finger on a new pocket knife. Blood is flying & about the same time, a bowl of vinagrette gets knocked out of the frig sending an oily mess everywhere. Finally, dinner is ready & everyone is seated. I plated & served the 1st course of oyster stew with the last 2 bowls given to an elderly lady & myself. I guess most of the pepper had settled to the bottom of the pot & we got the dregs; she choked on the pepper & had a huge coughing spell. Next, the entree was put on the table & it wasn't until later that I realized that I placed a huge platter of very rare tenderloin directly in front of the vegan! In the meantime, I went to pour red wine only to find that DH & his BIL had drunk all except 1 bottle of the good stuff, leaving the rest of us with an amount equal to communion. We decided to take a break before dessert & DH went to the basement to feed the dogs while everyone was settling in the living area. We waited, & waited, & he didn't come back. Finally, I went downstairs & found out that he had passed out on the couch & was dead to the world. That was the last time I've done Christmas Dinner for a crowd. I have no plans for future Yule festivities for this bunch, either. I just remembered: on his way out, BIL missed the step down to the public sidewalk & broke a bottle of port....See MoreWant to know how the Caputo gnocchi turned out?
Comments (7)I stopped at the Dollar General on my way home from Columbus, In tonight and they didn't have any and never heard of it. They did assure me that they were one of the smaller stores so didn't have everything other bigger Dollar General's have. Now I'll be on pins and needles until I can get to another one that has them....See Moreozmelodye
