EU Economic News
Doesn't the international nature of modern business mean that the US economy can be in the crapper, but companies can continue to post strong results because of overseas strength? I know there are other explanations but none come to mind right now - can you think of any (other than outright fraud)?- LVG

For the US, what Duckjake is pointing out really is a form of selection bias. His observation tells that there is increased trucking activity along that section that he traveled for the time that he traveled it, but cannot be generalized to regional, national, or international indicators, or...- LVG

That is good to know. I bought the beans from Albertson's in a standard 1 lb package, so I didn't think there would be a problem. But next time I'll look at those websites first. Thanks!- LVG

By this evening, most of the beans had hydrated. So I needed a 24 hour soak, not an 8 hour soak. Must be all that rocket fuel in the lake mead tap water.- LVG

I'll sort them this afternoon and see how they turn out. Maybe I'll take the unhydrated ones and do a hot soak to see if that works.- LVG

A pretty fair amount, the beans were still covered in water. About an inch. It's not that the beans were raw, about half didn't hydrate at all, the looked the same as when I put them into water. The few I sampled were rock hard in the middle, not just raw. Just curious, I left them out...- LVG

Ok, someone tell me how I messed up. Soaking red beans for a dish, put the beans (1 pound) in a bowl w/ 8 cups of water. 9 hour soak. 50% of the beans didn't hydrate at all, still hard as rocks. I picked a few to bite through, hard as rock in the general. All 3, and they look like they...- LVG

It wasn't bad, per se. Edible, but I didn't care for how it came out. I was trying something different, using 1 lb of ground beef and 1 lb of raw mild Italian sausage, along with some garlic, onion, fennel seed, parsley, bread soaked in tomato sauce, and Italian seasoning, to go for a meatball...- LVG

NICE! I'm trying my hand at meatloaf again. Last time didn't go so good. This time, it does not look good either. By the time it was out of the bowl and into the pan, well, it just didn't look right. But we'll see in a bit.- LVG

Funny you should mention that. I haven't been on a scale for about a year and a half now (really ever since I came back from San Diego). Had to go to the doc because I blew out my back, got on the scale, and found that I had actually lost weight from then till now. I was convinced that I had...- LVG

Thinking filet mignon tonight combined with the leftover risotto. Hopefully the mean will offset the super cheesiness of the risotto. Any suggestions on preparing the mignon?- LVG

I love Capital Grille, too bad I really don't have the funds to go there any longer. Tonight - Mushroom Risotto with Italian Sausage. Turned out good. Wish I halved the amount of cheese in the recipe. Only put in about half the chicken stock before the rice was done, so I was a bit peeved that...- LVG
