Thank you! I will try these.
AAACK! I broke a filling yesterday, and have to go to the Dentist Demon!
Otherwise, I would love the thought of that dish; but right now, Oil of Clove is my friend ;-)
I’ve only tried one of those ‘meal kits’; it was a sort of Jambalaya, and actually was one of the very few dishes that have come out of my crock pot well.
But when we look at the cost, as opposed to buying the ingredients individually/doing it all ourselves, it doesn’t seem worth it.
I’m sure it’s useful for very busy people; and it’s often an opportunity to try something new and intriguing without much sweat...
Let me know what you think!
Will do!
Scatter small rabbit figurines around "Mr McGregor's vegetable garden."
Wow, these recipes and tips make me want to make Mexican ASAP. Very cool.
Thanks for that link. We so enjoyed that show and want to watch the next seasons but can’t find 2017.
Your cakes are out of this world. I wish I could get them as beautiful - at least I am having success getting some cakes pretty tasty.
Perfect fudge recipe for today, st. Patrick’s Day.
I think I will make Nigella Lawson’s Recipe of the Day, a deep black Guinness chocolate cake.

Hope your tooth pain is gone! Does oil of clove lessen tooth pain? Good to know.
My husband is painting today so I have no idea what to make later. I was up late making calzone and cream cheese danish strips so I am tired. The calzone has lots of green onions in it though ;)
They are very cute.
You can buy two kinds of tooth pain relief (I became an amateur “expert” on this over the last few days ;-)
Most of the brand-name stuff you buy contains Benzocaine; but some contain Eugenol, which is the ‘active’ regarding tooth pain, in clove oil.
In my ‘barrio’ neighborhood, you can buy the Eugenol stuff - I haven’t seen it in drugstores outside of my immediate neighborhood - and all the labeling on that is in English and Spanish, which makes me think that it’s the preferable choice among the Hispanic population.
Apparently, Eugenol has proven better for tooth pain than the Benzocaine in at least one study, but I haven’t tried it yet. After my experience, I’ve decided to keep both around the house.
They both have possible side-effects, but I haven’t experienced any from Benzocaine.
Some interesting articles about this - the information in the second link has convinced me to go with the Clove Oil, if this happens again:

I suffered from Trigeminal Neuralgia - the ‘suicide disease’ - for several years, starting in my late ‘30s, before an old dentist figured out that it was due to a cracked tooth that I apparently acquired during a bicycle accident - this after many other dentists had missed the cause, and cost me a lot of money for nothing. I was very grateful to find a solution - a lot of people suffer from TN for no cause that docs can find. (Dr. Ben Carson did a lot of work with this at Johns Hopikins, and greatly furthered the medical understanding of the disease and possible remedies for it.)

That’s beautiful. Thanks for sharing the pic.
Is the picket fence made of sugar?
From now on I want only doctors who have never stayed in a Holiday Inn then. ;)
I read the second article and I will get clove oil to have in case of tooth ache. I know Oragel doesn’t cut it. We use oregano oil constantly when someone is sick, and lately with actual weather, we’ve been diffusing it and applying to feet a lot.
I’m glad your TN (which I didn’t know about) was finally cured by finding the affected nerve and fixing the tooth. Wild how things are missed. Cool that Dr. Carson was on it. If I had some terrible neuro issue, I’d feel very comforted with his bedside manner. He sure doesn’t rattle much.
I have green eyes so I’m good for St. Patty’s. I think the Guinness cake is good, I don’t eat desserts but I sniffed the trimmed bits and it smells really rich and just a teense special, not actually like stout but something. It was fun making the foaming head icing.
Dr. Carson is a brilliant physician and surgeon. I only hope that someone with his brains and intuition is coming along after him.
