Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
My internet keeps going off and on. This is the longest time it's been consistently messed up. I probably won't be on too much until it's fixed, as I don't want to use my data quickly on here. Down detector shows a wider outage than in recent days with different areas of concentration.
More lessons learned….
I learned yesterday that though I may able to multitask in certain things, others, not very well.
do not talk on the phone while baking-too easy to lose count on measurements
It doesn’t always work to salvage a dish you’ve destroyed when you put wayyyy too much of something in by making two more batches. Sometimes it’s best just to scrap it, cut your losses and start over.
Conclusion-I destroyed four sourdough Amish Friendship cakes I was going to use one of as a thank you gift for someone who repaired something for me and wouldn’t let me pay them for it by doubling the amount of baking soda accidentally-
Consequence-four volcano cakes that literally boiled all over inside the oven and a bunch of mess to clean up of dishes and sticky mess and the oven set on clean making the entire house give off a lovely burnt cake aroma with upstairs doors wide open to air it out in here. 😂😩🤣😩😭😂🤣🤪😜😭
Poor thing...no good deed goes unpunished! But seriously, everything is a learning curve!
That’s why I couldn’t decide whether to laugh or cry
I know just how you felt juls... been there many times and you just have to laugh!
Sorry you went through all of that. FYI - boil/simmer some white vinegar. That helps with quickly eliminating bad odors.
Thanks. I was more trying to let everyone have a good laugh at my own stupidity

🙏Prayer Garden Podcast Episode 8: Shelly Daye🙏 https://youtu.be/4jrQa465wIo
On this episode we speak with my sister in Christ, Shelly Daye. Shelly and I met through one of my church's small groups. We hear Shelly's powerful childhood story and how that lead up to her moment in meeting Jesus. We discuss how the enemy likes to plant lies in your mind from past trauma and how Christ has the authority to overcome those lies against you. God holds the ultimate power to healing and declaring His truth over yourself will set you free. Thank you for tuning in! Together through Christ we have endless potential.
We appreciate all your support. If you feel led please like and subscribe so we can grow this podcast. If you would like to come on the show, let us know and we can talk further. We also appreciate any constructive criticism. We wanna continue to grow the show
Keto cooking corner
Sorry guys, I forgot the camcorder so I have to document this here:
base:
stuffing (1):
stuffing (2):
topping:
prepare the bottoms
The farce
cooking
Note
The aubergine skin might require some pre-baking of the empty containers (which would then lose some capacity for the filling, unless you are ok with grating the skin when eating.
Enjoy.😋
You are making my mouth water!! You had me at eggplant! 🍆
Black olives, walnuts & cheese, Oh my!
Sounds delicious!
Thanks LQdy!🤗💐
I just added the cashew nuts which I forgot in the heat of the moment.
Oooooohhhh! A man after my own heart! I love cashews.
You want me to blush? Here I am.😊💐
For those that do canning... what is your favorite things to can?
And if you dehydrate ... what are some of the best things to dehydrate to store up on?
Canning……salsa, apple butter, half runner or greasy (cornfield) beans, tomatoes, cut corn, sausage (roll fresh sausage in balls and can)
We can our own marinara, salsa, bbq sauce, soups, ketchup, teriyaki, hoison, and I make sauce with leftover liquids from when I cook meats and use them for later dishes.
Quinces!
Prayers for Nigeria. We have a candidate that's basically like Trump, anti-establishment, grassroots led, and the other candidates are globalists and corrupt. Pray that the rigging is stopped
🙏🏻💐
Yes...so healthy! And, organ specific...when you eat organ meat it goes to specifically to support the organ. Marvelous how God perfectly designed everything!
Try lightly sauteeding calves liver in Marsala wine & olive oil. Fry chicken liver softly in a batter like chicken fried steak.
mom used to cook beef liver, but it had to be sliced very thin, and she cut out the areas that had the arteries/veins, coated with some flour, and fried with sliced onions...that was back in the day that we had to eat whatever mom cooked, no picky eaters allowed...also, chicken livers can be very good, fried, but "fair warning" if you want to cook them at home, MUST use a fork and puncture each chic liver several times before even starting to cook them...otherwise, you'll have exploding grease all over the kitchen...lessons learned, lol...
Nope. Never. Why? Because I’ve had Braunschweiger and could taste a metallic sort of flavor and didn’t like the texture. Actually, it could have been liverwurst. I’m not sure- it came in a fat tube and I was promised it was like bologna but it was not. I’ve also seen raw liver and smelled it being cooked with flour and stuff and was repulsed by the smell. Never. I’m a baby, I know.
Liver ranks up there with gizzards and Rocky Mountain oysters and other organ-y stuff I would only eat if my life depended on it.
I cant gag down liver, but love rocky mountain oysters.
Yeah buddy! In addition to being nutrient-rich, beef liver cooked right is a savory treat. The recipe you shared sounds amazing.
There's a gas station near where I live that has the best fried chicken livers you've ever had. Now, I wouldn't recommend trying chicken livers from just any gas station. I'm waaay out in the country and things are a little different.
Does liverwurst count? Love liverwurst. Had liver and onions ( popular in this area, or used to be) and did NOT care for the taste or texture
