IngredientsVegetable oil, for frying 2 lb clam strips 1 cup buttermilk 1 cup cornstarch ½ cup cornmeal ⅓ cup all-purpose flour 1 tsp curry powder ½ tsp celery salt ½ tsp cayenne ½ tsp salt Instructions Start by heating the canola oil in a pot over moderate heat until it reaches 380 degrees F. While the oil is being heated, rinse and drain the clam strips in a colander. Stir the clam strips together with buttermilk in a large bowl. Drain the clam strips well in a colander. Let them set over a bowl for at least 5 minutes. In another bowl stir together the cornstarch, cornmeal, flour, curry powder, celery salt, cayenne, and salt. Dredge a handful of drained clams in the flour mixture then shake in a large sieve to remove excess flour. Transfer the clams one by one in a baking sheet and then shake them again to remove any excess flour mixture. Fry the coated clams until they're crisp and golden for about 1 ½ minutes. Then, transfer them onto some paper towels with a slotted spoon for draining. Afterward, sprinkle them with salt to taste. Serve with some potato fries and your desired dipping sauce, and enjoy! should be close

nah..lets stay on the same thread. I wouldn't put R-6 unfaced ductwrap. without a vapor barrier. the vb is to keep the insulation clean & dry. wet insulation loses it's R-value. hold out for the 4' wide R-8 usually 50' long. (R-4 is 4x100'. R-6 is 4x75'. R-8 is 4x50') keeping it all the same shipping rate. don't buy the unfaced. even if they have to order the R-8 faced wrap...its worth the wait. and if you have unopened roll they should take it back. on the bag the wrap comes in is the lenghts you cut for what size ducts. usually adding 4-6" including the lap (without insulation to fasten) will work. but check the bag, incase I don't find my table for that. materials you need from supply house are: wrap fsk tape (foil scrim kraft) to seal stapled seams duct stapler (a must have) duct staples duct strap & sheet metal screws paint mastic & brushes mastic tape. keep the length of each install the width of the roll 4'. that the ends butt and overlap is very important. I usually have a roll of duct tape handy (don't tell!) when first putting the wrap on the duct, you'll need something to hold it in place. use 5-6" lengths of duct tape to tape start end of wrap to duct, then wrap the rest of the wrap around the duct, overlap..staple, fsk tape, staple tape. staple overlap over butt end..staple, fsk tape, staple fsk tape. move to next 4" section. once you've worked you way back to main supply (where all ducts are taken off) add screws to make sure all is attached well. keep strapping to sheet metal you'll cut the wrap to go around this as you wrap. the take offs on the supply is where I find the mastic tape to be most useful. sticks well to clean dry surfaces, and once pressed into place will last as long as paint mastic. that it makes sheetmetal to wood, paper, foam sheathing..and many materials makes it worth the cost. sometimes ease of install is what you need, and Hardcast #1402 Mastic Tape is the best product. cut your wrap to lenghts needed. you'll cut out for ducts once wrap is in place before securing. make sure that wrap is cut to fit tight to the duct take off. the wrap on the duct itself should be in contact with main supply duct and wrap for main supply goes over the supply duct wrap. staple & mastic seal. where the supply duct meets the equipment..this should be mastic sealed as well. then use the mastic tape to seal both supply & return ducts (if this applies). two things... you may hesitate at forking out $50 for a duct stapler..but the wrap will NOT stay in place long term without it. also strapping ducts is very important. you want this job to last 30+ years, gravity is the enemy. the mastic you bought dries fairly quickly? run the heat..it will help it. any questions? and btw...if you can learn to do this correctly do a job for someone else..pay for all your materials (the duct stapler) & make a few bucks. I usually charge $2k for 9 supply ducts supply plenum & return. let me know when you are ready for the sealing of the supply box from inside the house. if y'all have questions..just post. best of luck.

Fish sticks. The 'hot dog' from the sea. What's in those things anyway? Fish heads and fins - all held together with salt and grease as glue. Oh how I remember having to force those things down every Friday when I was a kid. I could never understand the rule having to be punished by eating fish sticks on Fridays. Then when I was older I learned that the rule was to eat fish on Friday not fish sticks. My mother thought fish was too expensive to serve. I think fish sticks were a dollar for ten pounds back then. They stunk like fish but tasted like putting a penney in your mouth. They always had freezer burn. My mother only ever bought canned veggies so the fish sticks really brought out the metallic taste of the canned stuff served with them too, so the whole meal was ruined.

No medical attention unless you count me being an RN lol. I've actually been stung a few times now. The first time I didn't really know what stung me and I was thinking it was a spider and was considering going to the Dr but then I went out to look really good under the leaves and saw that it was those caterpillars and researched a little to find out what they were. They aren't deadly or anything..perhaps if someone was actually allergic to them. They do hurt really bad and I am not a whimp about pain normally lol. Don't get me wrong you guys, I don't really think PJP2 attracts them in everyones yard and you should definitely get this rose! They just like him in my yard for some reason but I still grow him. I also don't spray at all because we have a lot of endangered little green tree frogs all over the place and they love my roses. They hide in the flowers and eat bugs. No clue if they eat the Saddleback caterpillars or not. I may go ahead and use NEEM on the caterpillars if I get a big infestation of them this year. I will have to make sure to knock them off with a stick into a cup of something after I spray them to prevent the frogs from eating them full of the NEEM.
