    I thought of it because it's what I am considering making for dinner....that, or chicken tortilla soup.

    I've got a recipe thats fairly easy for chicken & black bean enchiladas...and it even includes greek yogurt :) If you are interested let me know and I'll PM it to you....in exchange for your pickle recipe, or course :D

    of course. :mrgreen: can always use some new recipes. do you put it in a crock pot?

    And the pickle recipe....pail or canned?

    I will send it over to you when I have a more time to type it up....
    and canned please :D
    Makes much more sense...

    Feeling great after 11 hours of sleep and this day is already hilarious. Trixi busted out his/her winter belly sweater and a new song: Poker Face. A dance was included with the vocals. Move over Gaga...

    that just sounds wrong... :lol:
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Is it the veggie dip's fault? There's a reason I don't like veggies...

    Hope everything works out ok for you.

    That happens in Cuban culture too, mine is the Feast of St. Barbara, Dec. 4 :) my grandmother would get a cake when I was little, and then we'd have a nice dinner afterwards as I got older

    Sweden too. Mine is July 19th. My grandparents and I exchange cards and gifts on our name days. Sara was the wife of Abraham and the mother of Isaac as described in the Hebrew Bible and the Quran. The Hebrew name Sara indicates a woman of high rank and is sometimes translated as "princess". It also means "lady." :lol::lol: That's right!

    Happy Dimi Day, Dimi!!

    Thank you for your kind words...so many nice ppl on this forum :mrgreen:

    I've been practicing since yesterday, my speeches and all.

    I even have some questions for the interviewer. I've researched the company, the services they provide, etc so I'm well versed...I hope.

    I'm being interviewed by the vice president in about 2 hours time, which doesn't help my nerves any.

    Enthusiastic is the goal. :)
