Are you talking about the pan in the Homemade Hamburger Helper post? It’s a Viking pan. They are insanely expensive. (I bought several Viking pots and pans back in the day when I was a spoiled suburban housewife.) They are actually amazingly strong pots and pans (and somewhat heavy) BUT very expensive.

I’m with JoLinda, I DON’T READ ANY OTHER BLOGS! I read the best and don’t need the rest! I noticed first thing (after seeing Mr. Pibb) that you changed your photo! Looks great. I’ll be voting as soon as I can come up with two others to vote for….have no idea! Good luck.

Am voting now, it’s going to take awhile to find two other blogs for each category that I am nominating you in. I do read a lot of other blogs, but this one is by far my favorite. Good luck Suzanne!

Hello Mr. Pibb!!

Hubby said it is a good thing Mr. Pibb is not here, we would probably have him on the bed too!
He is so tiny, and just so precious, I already love him!
WELCOME HOME MR. PIBB!!

Apparently its ok to use apple cider vinegar if you lack the white stuff. Just to let ya know!

Thanks so much for this recipe.

Comment on No-Knead Grandmother Bread by Amy

I saw this post on the first day I’d had time to myself, no more Christmas obligations, and suddenly decided I simply HAD to try the original Grandmother bread recipe. I loved that for once I would know what every single ingredient in my bread was - and that there were so few! I couldn’t get my dough smooth and elastic either, but I pressed ahead. It was globbing onto my fingers like a glove when I gave up kneading and left it to rise the first time. It sagged into a puddle of dough when I shaped it into loaves (on a cookie sheet, no less - we’re between houses and my loaf pans are buried deep in a storage space). And yet, after thirty minutes in the oven, I had two beautiful round loaves of heavenly-smelling bread. Slightly dense, I’ll admit, but not in a bad way. Not at all. So thanks for posting the no-knead recipe, and if I gain weight this year because I can’t stop eating this bread - I’ll know who to blame. ;-)
