Yes it is the dehydrogenase that breaks down the alcohol faster in men then in women so we get hangovers and drunk more readily!! It's awful because I love me some

wine with Shabbat dinners and anytime really....

Hey Lofters,

Quick note to say hey. I wonder where Barb is, I haven't seen her in here for awhile.

Hey EF, thanks for the rep and offer. Hope it's as nice in SC as it is here. This is a lazy day that has the look of rain.

Anyway everything I was going to do today, I'm putting off until tomorrow.
As Scarlett would say, "after all, tomorrow is another day."

Speaking of Scarlett O'Hara, I was with my good friend Mel, down on Peachtree Street where Margaret Mitchell's house is located. It's gorgeous on the outside looking like an antebellum estate.

As you know, Margaret Mitchell never saw Gone With the Wind on screen. She was hit by a cab and died here in Atlanta before it's release. I forget the particulars. And last year, the actor who played one of the Tarlton Twins died here in Atlanta as well. I think he was in his late 80s or 90s. I'm a Yankee, but I'm fascinated living in the south, especially in Atlanta, despite the razzing I take from southerners.

Sidbar: we do have a Classic Movie thread, started by me. Folks drop in every now and then, but Carmen and myself do alot of the posting because avid film buffs. If you are too, feel free to drop in and post about American films, between 1930 and 1975, roughly.

I do live a very hard life here which I hope will come to an end soon. I'm a trauma survivor and I'm going through many changes that will set my life right side up at my age. Tenacity, faith, perseverance, and a lot of heart are key in reclaiming my life. Broad shoulders come into play too, but I've that covered with my workouts.

I have to go now,
J

i am sorry to hear you are having a hard time but it sounds like you see a path out of it? i hope so. i am going through a similar process and i wish it wouldn't take so long! But i work every day on accepting that there is no shortcut

sidebar: i participated extensively in Carmin's classic movie thread on one of the other sites before it died...i will look up the thread over here and see if i can jump in!

i have never eaten fried green tomatoes or fried greens...i have eaten fried corn tho, at Black-Eyed Pea!

Rockinonahigh · 07-07-2010, 07:03 PM

fried tomatos are easy to fix..just slice them about 1/4 in or a bit more thick,ddip them in either egg was or butter milk then fluf them around in seasoned flower or italian bread crumbs till well coated and drop them in hot cooking oil till golden brown.Fried greens are a bit diffrent to fix but easy,cook the greens as u want then or get a can of greens andy kind,drain off most of the water..just leave a bit for moisture,put them in a non stick frying pan wiht a touch of oil on the bottom to keep them from sticking,sperad the greens around about half inch thick then add italian bread crumps over the top till it cover well,cook till as hot as u like.Trun off the fry pan and take it off the fire,then add smokes provalone or parm over till it melts a bit.Help ur self to some good eating.If u use turnips and have cooked he heads leave then in...so good.

What type of offer is this? I used to live in Gautier and would love to be closer to home. (But not in Gautier.) I miss the smell of mimosas dreadfully! I miss the food. I miss the music. I miss the beach. I just miss!
