OK, I never claimed to be the sharpest knife in the drawer and here is proof.
At a Christmas gathering last night some friends gave us a freshly baked loaf of apple cinnamon bread from a local bakery. We had a slice each for breakfast this morning and will do the same tomorrow. Then, brilliant me decided to save some of it for later using the new FoodSaver.
Carefully cut a couple of really nice, thick pieces, prepped my storage bag and then hit the vac/seal button and promptly sealed it right up, vacuuming out all the air and crushing the bread at the same time. It could not be flatter if I stomped it. Lesson learned...you don't seal up fresh bread in the vacuum bags. Maybe that is what the optional canisters are for.

I freeze bread and other baked goods in freezer paper or a zip lock and vac seal the next day. No more squishies
If you get a chance watch one of the qvc presentations or youtube for more info and uses for it
Happy zen day. I'm taking today off Not that I get to spend the day on my bottom It seems I need to do some food shopping, return something my dh bought himself(without checking if it was the right thing for a project, and hopefully have time for a quick trim before heading home to cook. Yesterday I wound up making minestrone with smoked pork butt because my boys didn't bother to read what was written on the vac seal bag I sent them for chicken and when I went to make the stock, you get the picture. I'm thinking maybe it wasn't a mistake

They only look a little squished to me. They still look like pretty thick slices (and tasty, too).

I have been meaning to say this. I am sure you've all heard this, but Cuisinart recalled some of the blades on their food processors. The blades that have been recalled are fastened to the attachment with rivets and the blade can crack and break off into food. I checked mine on Friday and it has a crack by one of the rivets. I ignored the recall because I thought it was for newer processors and I bought mine in 2008. This recall is for some models of food processors manufactured since July 1996!
I did request a new blade and you can do so here. But I did end up buying one, because I use my food processor most days, but I definitely use it most this time of year. I don't mind chopping things by hand, but I do use it to blend sauces, make hummus, etc. You can't do those by hand! LOL

THNX I didn't know. Mine's a Kitchen Aid but I think my MIL's is a Cuisinart I'll let her knowI have been meaning to say this.

Thanks for the tip. Yeah, I should check out some videos and maybe read the owner's manual as well.

It was a bit hilarious. I am sure the look on my face was interesting as I looked at my results.
My silly mistake turned in to a really good breakfast. My wife took the squished bread and made a milk/egg mixture to soak it in, then made some really tasty French toast out of it, so it was not wasted, but the French toast was a little dense...kinda like me.
Figured we should go ahead and use it now instead of trying to save squished bread for later.

Thanks for the heads up. I just checked ours and it does not have the blade with the rivets. I checked the recall and found our model Cuisinart food processor is not on the recall list but would not have even known to check, as I have been avoiding the news the past few days. Just too much stupidity for me to handle without getting stressed and mad. Being a news junkie, I will ease back in soon...edited out the rest of the rant.

Hello-
I am in with a DVD (Tonique-Born to Move) I haven't done in about two years or so. I was in the middle of it and it stopped and fast forwarded. There was a scratch and I lost about 20 minutes worth of work out. I am finding that some of my DVDs are scratched and I think it's from moving three times in less than two years.
Anyway, it worked my legs unevenly, because as I was working one leg, it FF'd to the other. I kind of want to buy a new DVD, but it's $35. It's a shame because it has 3.5 of content on it and I am only missing 20 minutes. But my legs are uneven. LOL
I think I might be unable to walk tomorrow, because it was squat-lunge-a-palooza.

I am on a news moratorium myself. I have a subscription to an online newspaper that I read, but I am not watching the news right now. My husband keeps calling me to watch the news with him downstairs and I'm like, "Nope. I'm just gonna stay up here and listen to Nat King Cole sing "O Holy Night. "
While I know some of you are advoiding the news just a heads up MSN's home page had something that made me think of @Sans Souci because they has something about the one dish in every state you should try and I wondered if you've tried disco fries yet? and @epcotisbest because they had 30 New Year's resolutions that you should be able to keep
Good luck with your legs tomorrow and OUCH! Can you get a downloadable version for less?Hello-

I haven't tried them yet. Honestly, the only restaurant food I have had since moving here is Seasons 52, Hong Kong-style Chinese and Vietnamese.

She charges the same for downloads.
But I found the DVD for $27 with free shipping.

Good morning! DH off all this week so trying to keep him busy and out of my way. I have my routine! I sent him outside to burn some brush.
The fitbits are really working! My DH always walks every day like me but he is checking it all the time and walking all over the place. I knew these were worth it! Lol
Have a great week if I don't make it back on here! Merry Christmas!!
