thanks in advance
Lyn

Lyn, I forgot to mention one very important rule here. Anything you ladies giVe recipies for like cookies and cakes you need to send some to the Administrators, ( Greg and I ) for taste approval, LOL...........................Darrell

No worries Darrell, but I think they might be stale & squashed by the time they reach the USA, but if you're game..............
Lyn

yeah darrell i think you should meet her half way.........

Mmmm...those sound good!

A great place to look for any recipe is zaar there is 1000's there if you don't find one I'll find the one I have. good luck

thanks for the tip. I have just checked zaar out WOW so many recipes .... I will definately give it a through search tonight & will let you know how they turn out.

sorry I just realised that i was signed in under Mac's name when I posted my message just now - I apoligise for his avatar if it offended anyone, you know what these boys are like!
So again I thank you for the tip on zaar. My dad had a fall down his stairs yesterday & is in hospital - no broken bones thank goodness - but they have kept him in overnight, mum stayed here last night & we are getting ready to go visit him this morning- hopefully he will be allowed home. So maybe I can get some biscuits baked tonight - I reckon I could do with a couple & a coffee by then.

So, does that mean it's ok to fart now?

Sorry to hear about your Dad, I hope he'll be allowed to go home & nurse his bruises.

Lyn: Hope your Dad's alright

Man! I didn't know they had a website. I learned how to cook out of my mom's Better Homes and Gardens "red and white checked" cookbook. It's falling to pieces and hardly recognizable now. But on a recent trip me and my brother found one just like mom's and its practically brand new! [If you buy a new one these days, it doesn't have the same good ol fashioned recipes in it.]

Oh and there's usually a good recipe on the package of Nestle chocolate chips.

Yes Ezernut we do have Nestle choc chips down under, I have checked out the Better Homes & Gardens recipe site & will let you know how they go.

There is no such thing as "Too many, right out of the oven chocolate chip cookies!!"

and a few from each batch out of the oven needs to be taste tested for quality assurance right out of the oven while hot.

Wrong again, young jedi... Taste test all of them you must . the entire cookie taste you must !
