Are You Too Skinny?

[Jim Koepke]

Someone said you can never be too rich or too thin…

If you are feeling a little too thin, Google > How to make your own deep-fried butter < That should fix you right up.

Using margarine might just be sacrilege.

If it contains butter, and if it's fried, you just know Paula is going to have a recipe for it. :rolleyes:

The guy who created this culinary sensation is also the creator of the Fried PBJ and Banana Sandwich, as well as Fried Coke. I'm going to have to dig a little deeper into that one!

[Belinda Barfield]

Well, that didn't take too long. Fried Coke.

Don't need to Google. Skinny ain't a problem.

One of the coolest recipes I have seen, is you freeze Chili into one of those kids popsicle molds, sans the stick.. then dip the frozen chilli in batter, and deep fry it.. Comes out like a McDonalds apple pie only Chilli:p

John,

If cased you've missed it, go the the big fair in Perry, GA this fall. If you can dream it, it will be there in all its fried glory. I think last year they even had fried honeybuns.

Nope - I'm too short!

Too funny! Several years ago I went for my annual check up. My doc says, "You've grown a couple of inches this past year, what are you now, about 5'6"? I was completely puzzled and said "No, I have gotten any taller." He said, "Are you sure?". I said, "Well I'm pretty sure I haven't gotten taller." He smiled and said, "Well either you're taller, or you are overweight for your height." :eek: I said, "Yes sir, I topping out at about 5'8" now."

I wrote this about 15 years ago.. Thought it might be Appro.:D

The Cookies Inside

So little man you've grown tired of grass,
L.S.D., goofballs and Hash.
Then someone pretending to be a Girl Guide
will hand you a box with "Cookies Inside".
Well honey before you start fooling with me,
Let me inform you of just how it will be.
For I will seduce you, and make you grow fat,
while rooting through cupboards and places like that.
You think you won't suffer the shame and disgrace,
of waking up in a gutter with crumbs on your face.
So you'll start sniffing the box and be thinking I lied,
as you tear off the wrapper and open it wide.
Grabbing each biscuit you twist, with your mouth in a grin,
and you'll lick the cream from each one before stuffing it in.
You'll need lots of money to control all your fear.
for your Girl Guide "cookie pusher" only shows up once a year.
You'll swindle your mother for the box she just bought.
You'll lurk around school yards, searching lunches till caught.
You'll mug and you'll steal for my sugary taste,
and feel smug contentment, as I increase your waist.
Then one day as you realize the monster you've grown,
you'll solemnly swear to leave me alone
then sweety just try getting me off your back,
your a slave to the chocolate, vanilla, and now mint in a stack.
The hot chills the cold sweats, and withdrawal pains,
can only be quelled by my sugary grains.
there's no other choice, and you've hunted and looked,
for deep down inside you know you are hooked.
You may desperately seek out any Girl Guide, there's no telling,
and beg them for cookies whatever flavour they're selling,
You'll return to my realm, as I have foretold,
and you'll give me your body, your heart, and your soul.
You'll give up your morals, your conscience, your pride,
and you'll be together, with the "Cookies Inside"

What is this word? Is this in the dictionary? What was the question?:)

If it has bacon, I'm in.

Buffalo wings...the ultimate in clever ways to induce fat and sodium into your diet. Chicken wings with skin, rolled in an egg and flour batter, deep fried in cooking oil, drenched in a spicy cayenne pepper and butter sauce, then finally dipped in blue cheese dressing before it hits your lips.

[Dan Hintz]

Damnit, Scott, now I'm seriously craving wings! And it's dinnertime, too!

[Greg Peterson]

Actually, yes. My doctor thinks I'm a little on the thin side. There use to be a time I could eat whatever I wanted and any amount and it would just burn off. Now I have to watch it.

Of course if I had the same muscle mass I had twenty years ago metabolism wouldn't be a problem.

[Phyllis Meyer]

I love skinny...noodles...fettucini-linguini-vermicelli:)
