I don't see Hershey as dumpy just different and my boys love coasters. Dorney is the one I'm fond of. Right now if given the choice they'd choose UNI, Hershey and Disney in that order.

My problem with Hershey is the theming. The entrance is great, but then the ride areas have none. Christmas Candy Lane is nice to go to with all the lights. I hate what they did with Chocolate World and the free ride. They took all the theming away from the entrance to the ride. It was awesome when it was jungle themed. Now it is just a bleak hallway, and they have a picture before you go on the ride. We liked it better when it was during the ride. It is just a commercialized area now. We did go there last weekend and went to The Hershey Lodge for lunch. Now that hotel had a really nice shop with nicer items than you would find at Chocolate World.

1 Cup chickpea flour, 1/2 tsp onion pwder, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp pepper, 1/3 Cup nutritional yeast, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1 Cup water. Combine all those together. separately have chopped veggies of your choice already sauteed.
Pour the batter in a frying pan as if you are making pancakes. Sprinkle some veggies over it. Flip it when you start to see a lot of bubbles. Just finish it on the other side. It cooks just like a pancake. I make a bunch out of this, but with your boys it may only be one meal.;) There are loads of these recipes on the internet. This was the first one I ever found. Got it from a heart healthy cookbook.

I just had to try this! But I had to do some substitutions to make it work without running to the grocery store.

1 Cup chickpea flour - I used 2 eggs
1/3 Cup nutritional yeast - I used 3 pieces of bacon (chopped)
1/2 tsp baking soda - I used american cheese
1 Cup water - I just drank it.

I was delicious! :)

@figmentfan423 & @MySmallWorldof4 I bought pasta made from chickpeas at my grocery store the other day. They had a lower overall carb count than regular noodles so I thought I would give them a whirl. I haven't tried them yet, I was just wondering if either of you have and if you had any suggestions about cooking them, taste, and what to make with them.

I bought pasta from lentils before. Never garbanzo beans. Just found a link of recipes for you for it. http://blog.eatbanza.com/ let me know how it turns out.

Which is exactly what my last paragraph was attempting to convey. Just because your children didn't see life that way, doesn't mean that others haven't influenced how employers perceive the situation. If he couldn't get hired with his architecture degree, but did with his masters that means that they did indeed have a position available but the requirements were raised because "generally" the way business is done has altered as well. It wasn't that they weren't hiring, it was because they were demanding more from the applicant. And in "general" that applicants were demanding more of the employer. Which came first is probably hard to determine, but, I have never seen a business that was willing to pay more for the same talent if they didn't have a reason.

No what I objected to was the broad stroke you painted a generation of college students, I thought what you stated the "problem" with these graduates was lacked merit, it is very common right now to hate on the mellenials as a whole. Fact is many lost their jobs during the recession. It took years before many of these firms that laid of young and old alike off started hiring again. I used both my kid as examples of starting at the bottom and working up.


"I hate to say it but part of the problem is that people coming out of college with a degree feel that they are above starting at entry level and proving themselves capable of operating businesses to any successful degree. They must have a certain salary, must have some perks, etc. So the employer makes higher and higher demands on those people to show that there is some reason for a company to spend mega-bucks for an unproven entity."

Frankly during the recession the entire construction industry tanked, banks were not lending money, government wasn't building major projects. My nephew though educated to be an architect the ones that still remained employed were not hiring. He was mentored well, told what he needed to do to expand what he could bring to firms. The additional skills was what got him hired, having above and beyond what most have. It just wasn't the kids of today it was adults too. So yes the nephew could have taken a job at Walmart or worked in a firm as an administrative assistant but chose a path that would get him hired in his chosen field. I'm not sure what salaries you speak of or what the perks you are speaking of that this generation is demanding. Confused.
