    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

This is a very simple snack:

1" cube of salted butter (not margarine). 1/2 cup sugar. Two handfuls of shelled pecans.


Melt butter in frying pan, add sugar and pecans. Stir over low heat stirring constantly until the sugar caramelizes about 5 minutes. Spread pecans on plate and let cool.
 
i may try it some time.
you should try this one take a mixing bowl about 1/2 cup of honey, pecan, a pinch of salt and a pinch of cayenne pepper. mix together then lay out on a cookie sheet and bake until the pecan have a toasty smell to them 8 to ten minutes top.
lucille, you will love it
 
Gordon I've actually tried that and it is wonderful! I have a bunch of pecans in the freezer plus the lady across the street has this ginormous pecan tree, so I use pecans in a lot of recipes. My banana bread for instance has pecans instead of walnuts.
