Here too.
The green bean casserole with crispy fried onions (funyons?) - not so much.

Canadians are quite fond of Pillsbury crescent rolls. It's not really a holiday meal until you pop a tube or two of those.
Mmm crescent rolls! I made split pea and ham soup with crescent rolls yesterday. I like using the seamless roll dough and making pizza pockets.

My first ever flight was in a DC10 :eek:
The planes were good, the problem were the greedy companies refusing to make the changes on the vulnerabilities on this plane or cheapening maintenance.

Example, the cargo door issue with the DC10's. Most companies refused to comply with the change. They preferred to risk and pay the dead people than roll out an entire fleet door change until they were literally forced or retrofitted the floor.

Yes, they were grounded for a lengthy time too.

Which was a good thing. I still remember reading that the majority of American Airlines and almost all Continental Dc10's had serious cracks on the pylons.
Just a matter of time the pylons failed and caused yet another crash.

Thank you sir. You were an inspiration.
I have never been on another tiny plane since my college years. I wasn't a fan then but when that is what's offered is a plane with one seat on each side of the plane to fly into smaller areas you just kinda s ck it up or at least I did in my youth.
We haven't had much of choice until recently. The trilanders used to fly us to Gatwick 45 mins away.

big planes can still glide, not that much but they can.
Infact, they "deploy" shutes with funny looking fans to give energy to critical components if they lose both powerplants.
We had an air search trislander come down with no power 2years ago over our sister isle and. All OK on board and it landed in a wooded area. Sometimes smaller is better ;)

It's a very sad place, now. I skip it every trip.

Yep, I don't remember being in that pavilion since '07. As we entered that year, we all won a YoaMD extended hours dance party and rides in FW. No Cinderella Castle Suite, but, it sure was fun. I think they gave out 2,000 of them, but, usually only about 500-750ish show up.
The kiddos loved the dance party, but, we spent most our time walkin' on all the rides in FW...! :)

I've never had Lefse but it sounds like something I'd like. Is it traditional throughout Wisconsin? I should make it up there at least once before the holidays.

Lefse is a Norwegian thing and in Northern Wisconsin (and Minnesota) there are a lot of people of Norwegian heritage. I don't know if it is as prevalent in Southern Wisconsin. Lefse by itself is okay. Most people eat it rolled up with butter and either a sprinkle of white or brown sugar. My mom liked it warm with butter and brown sugar. I like to eat it with meatballs (or roast beef) and gravy and maybe some mashed potatoes because the lefse made from potatoes isn't enough carbs!

The Kringla in Norway at Epcot sells lefse and I think they serve it with butter and white sugar. Lefse is very labor intensive if made correctly. The potatoes need to be peeled, cooked, then riced. Then the dough needs to be made very thin and cooked on a flat type of griddle that makes one at a time (about 12 inches in diameter) and then cooled. Our church makes over a 1000 pieces of lefse each year and orders seem to get larger each year. I usually send my Dad a couple packs in his Christmas gift box. I would offer to send you a pack but then I'd need to know your address and you might not be comfortable with that. But if you want let me know by the first week in December the second weekend is the sale. :)

Never even tried White Castle stuffing, because we don't have that around here. (We don't have White Castles in our area.)

My favorite stuffing comes from a box--Bells Stuffing. Yum. And to the stuffing mix, I also put in a little extra of their (separate) special seasoning. (A Bostonian, William G. Bell, back in 1867, created his mixture of seasonings. Rosemary, oregano, sage, ginger, marjoram, thyme and pepper--and that's the same salt-free mixture is still sold today.) :hungry:

I've never heard of this brand but it sounds good. How does it compare to Stove Top? Better? Taste test is needed! :):hungry:
