I used half a block of butter near the end of October. I wrapped the other half and put it into a ziplock bag in the fridge. How long does butter usually last and can I still use it for Christmas baking? Thanks.

Yesterday my husband and I made the classic Carnation Famous Fudge Recipe but it didnt set up.
My husband thinks it might be because it was a little humid but I think it might be because I had trouble getting it to full rolling boil while I was cooking and watching a movie, so maybe it didnt get reduced enough. We are just going to use the unset fudge for ice cream topping, but I plan to try again. I made this recipe last year but not sure what I did different. How do I make sure the fudge sets up?
Also when I was a kid, my mom and I used to make a fudge from recipe called Foolproof Fudge that I remember being much easier and made more but I havent had much luck finding the recipe. Anyone know this recipe?
Thanks for the help.

Hello all.
First time posting and would appreciate some advice on canning and sealing sauces. I've never done any jar sealing and will pretty much just go off the tutorials from Martha Stewart, so any helpful hints? The magazine I have shows how to seal jams and chutneys, but nothing on homemade sauces. Any know if it's possible? How to do it?
I'm particularly interested in canningthis recipe.
Thanks in advance for any help. ^_^

i'm hoping that this is the right place to ask this :)
we live in a cruddy tin box (read: trailer older than i am) & we are looking to stay a little warmer this year. we currently use elec. heaters & kerosene but i would love to be able to spend the winter without a headache...& the risk of the place burning down around our ears. the trailer IS equipped with a propane furnace, however, with the price of propane nearing $3 a gallon we can't afford to fill the tank.
what we were wondering is this: if we were able to find an electric furnace for a trailer (even a used one) how much of an issue will it be to switch it over? do i need to have it done by a certified electrician? i know that we will need to have the ducts cleaned & possibly repaired in places but is there anything else i need to know before we consider this course of action?
thanks so much for any help :D

Hey Guys,
Unfortunately with our last release, and its instability, we were forced to roll back releases. Unfortunately in doing so, it would seem that our notification system has been broken somehow. Our engineers are working on this issue as quickly as possible. We hope to have a patch within the next day, so we can deploy our code and fix the notification system at the same time. Please *bear* with us ;)
Currently all notifications are being queued up so they can be processed as soon as the fix is pushed and verified to be working correctly.
Thank you,

I hate to report but our notification system has gone offline due to code related problems. We have our engineers working as quickly as possible to remedy the situation. At this point we are queuing up all of the notifications to be sent out as soon as a fix is implemented. Thanks |

Pablo and I had a fight last night.
Or actually ... I had a fight, with him.
He doesn't like fighting, not even with me, and he's always the smart one, when it comes to fights. At least that's good.
But I lost it. Truly...
I got so very desperate. Felt dumped not only by Pablo, but by Yael too, by the whole wide world.
We fought, even with Yael's box in hand. I wanted to throw her (ashes) away, through the house... Not really, obviously.. but I was just getting CRAZY from all this.
I hardly slept and hardly talked to Pablo this morning before he left. He phoned me and I asked him whether he thinks Yael hates me. I know the logical answer, but my emotions tell me she can't but hate me.
I should get off Facebook - place of ultimate bullshit: a whole bunch of people you actually don't give a shit about, but that you were kinda curious about - how they were doing after so many years. Am I the only one whose 'friends' seem to be living of either posting all the great success stories of their lives (build/bought a house, pregnant or with cute, little babies, steady jobs...), or else playing these stupid games all day long: Where do they get the time from and seriously, do they have nothing better to do than playing these stupid games and quizes?
I don't have anything better to do, for that matter, yet... whatever...
I guess it's just not my day today.
I messed up lunch BIG TIME. The meat Pablo'd bought on Saturday was completely rancid already, and the veggies I made were burnt and raw at the same time (yes, that's possible!). And I am afraid there is really nothing else to eat at home. Yesterday I lived of rice pudding, today I still have two chocolate mousse thingies left (left overs from a trip to Carrefour)
Anyway: a positive is that I wrote two letters yesterday. Jing and Miriam D, if you read this: soon there'll be mail coming your way. Deni and Michaela, you girls are next.
Oh, and I cleaned the house too...

Hi there!
I'm an American citizen and my husband is Canadian. My husband has lived in Canada most of his life and I've been living in Canada with him since 2004. Recently, I've been wanting to move to the U.S. again and my husband has been open about moving there himself, provided he can get a job in the state we want to move to. I was thinking, to make things easier, we would apply for him to become a P.R. in the U.S.
I've looked it up on the net and found the USCIS website. I found the part of their site that says he could apply for a green card via spousal. According to the site, it says that if we're applying from outside of the U.S., we'd need to fill out the "I-130, Petition for Alien Relative" form and submit it to the nearest consulate along with the fee. If it's approved, then we'd be issued a visa, and he'd land as a P.R. the next time he goes through a U.S. port of entry. Is this correct? Is this all we have to do or are there other forms/fees we should expect to fill out/pay?
If I, as the American citizen, am living in Canada, do we still only fill out the above mentioned form?
My husband currently doesn't have a job in the U.S. Will this affect things?
I am currently unemployed. Will this affect our chances of my husband gaining U.S. P.R.?
I guess I just want to know what we should expect. What does the process of requesting U.S. P.R. involve, etc.?
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make this process easier/quicker?
If there's any info that's needed and I forgot to include it, I apologize.

The Anti-English Spectrum Group, he said, claims a high percentage of the 2,000 foreign English teachers in Korea have no morals, abuse drugs, rape Korean girls, molest children and are spreading AIDS. . . .Source thinks you're not from around here, are ya boy?
How bad is it? Anyone in Korea have current horror stories?

Howdy all you fine people - I have a question whether this biscuit/cookie dough can be frozen.
( Recipe under here, as best I can remember it. )
All the ingredients get combined, then rolled into 'sausages' and put in the fridge overnight, then cut into 1cm thick slices and baked at around 170C for 15ish minutes. I don't have the actual recipe in my posession, I go from a list of ingredients and memory.
The thing is that this makes a massive amount of both dough and mess - I was wondering how long you'd think it'd keep in the fridge, or then in the freezer, so I can just open and bake without the entire process. I'm most worried about how the eggs will react and how the texture will/might change.
