Sparkee73 I've never made it home with one of their pretzels. They get devoured in about 5 minutes! LOL I'd be curious, too, to know how well they turn out when microwaved. Probably not as good as fresh, I'd bet. I've never heard of Goldilocks before, but hard...

My husband is a die-hard, dyed in the wool vegetable hater. He knows how healthy they are and he'd like to eat more but he can't get over his aversion to them. How do you incorporate veggies into a veggie hater's diet? He won't...

Personally, my favorite is probably my food saver or my blender. Or maybe it's my coffeemaker. LOL Do you have a kitchen gadget that you can't live without? What is it?

Sparkee73 What did we do before microwaves were invented?? I love mine, too. Thanks for your comment! :-)

Sparkee73 You poor thing! Having to go without coffee for that long is just sad! LOL No one should be put through that. Glad your power's back on! Thanks for your response. :-)

Sparkee73 You know exactly what I mean, then! LOL Mention the word "green bean" and you'd think someone just punched my husband in the gut. If it grows from the ground, he won't eat it! Hopefully someone will come up with a magical solution to the problem. LOL Thanks...

Sparkee73 I've never had the chance to use a convection oven but I hear they're wonderful! I know what you mean about the holidays...there isn't enough counter space in the world when it comes to holiday baking and cooking. LOL Thanks for your response!

I love the process of preparing and enjoying a bowl of nice, warm soup when it's cold outside. It's great comfort food! Does anyone else feel the same? What kind of soups do you enjoy?

Sparkee73 That sounds so good! I'd love to try and find a recipe for beef barley soup and see if I can manage not to ruin it. LOL Thanks for the response!

Is it the leaves turning color? The crispness in the air? Halloween? For me, it's all of the above and much more. Pumpkin doughnuts and apple cider, chilly nights and bonfires...there's so much to love! What do you love about...

I don't like any of them, but I'd have to say dishes and laundry are my two least favorite household chores. They have a way of multiplying when you turn your back for a second! What chore can't you stand and why?

Sparkee73 I'm with you, Wolfie. I hate Christmas shopping, too, and I can't stand feeling rushed AND trying to deal with hordes of shoppers at the same time. Thanks for your response!
