Thanks Guys.

I am crushed. :( I just heard that there was a sci fi convention last weekend in Melbourne, and Alan (Wash) was there. They are few and far between in Melb, but last time I looked into one it was over $300. This one was only $30.. apparently Alan did an hour long Q&A. *sigh* missed opportunities.

Major shpeherd for SG Atlantis was there too....

HUGS Magda tightly..I miss you

Just popping in MrG and I are having a great weekend at home:)

Rosie...question can I roast several heads of garlic and then keep them in the fridge? How long before they spoil?

*walks over and offers DTH and Zero some chocolate-covered espresso beans*

*fills a small bar-bowl with more of the same* These are fairly potent, so beware.

GorramGroupie, not only do I remember that jingle/commercial (skiing by night) I remember the name of the group that wrote the *original* song: The Hillside Singers.

We had a copy of the Christmas album they cut, and my mother would play it every year. ('Course them bein' her cousins mighta had somethin' to do with it...)


MSG hon, I'm not sure how long it will last refridgerated. Till it looks/smells funny would be a first guess. Could be a last guess too..
You might try roasting and then freezing, which would theoretically give it a lot longer useable lifespan. Or you could put it into something, float it in olive oil, and then put it in the fridge, which would help. Or you could do home canning with it..
Sorry I'm not really being terribly helpful here.

I've spent the better part of the evening peeling several pounds of my harvest from this year and I'm still not done. The fumes may be getting to me! I'm going to whirl it to tiny bits and freeze it in snack baggies. It was either that or dehydrate it, and I'm more confident in the preservative powers of cold.

We went apple picking, then grabbed a gallon of maple syrup, then hit the pumpkin stand. We are spherically enhanced! Tomorrow's schedule is comprised of a train ride to leaf peep with my mom, her bf, my sister and the two niblets, hubby, self and son. Possibly also sister's hubster, but I think he may be working out of town.

I need to wash my pumpkins, but the sun went down. Tomorrow will be warmer and they will dry better.
Did I mention we're having really wacky weather? It's been in the high 70s, which it NEVER does this late in the year, then it bungees into the 50s, then back up to record/near record highs. If those lakes stay warm we are sooooo with the snow thing this year. Warm moist air hitches a ride on a cold front and POOF twelve feet in four days, or four inches a day for two months, or..
You get the idea. We usually expect snow anywhere from oh..now..to Mothers' Day. There are points in the early and late range when we just get a gentle reminder to find the shovels and make sure the snowblower still runs, or not to put the scarves up quite yet, but from mid Nov to mid Apr we do not usually see the ground.
Did I mention it gets very gray here?
I found out (and recently had independent verification) that the name for Syracuse in Chinese is "Snow City".

Kaele's coming for a shindig next weekend! So far it's just her and the kidlings. She should be getting the last of the fall color, and ditto the apple crop. I mentioned briefly somewhere that if there are browncoats we know and love (or tolerate ) who will be in our area for TurkeyDay I will be more than happy to feed/house orphans for the holiday! (Roxy babe! You busy? It's just an hour and a half on the Thruway..)

EDIT: Please make sure to get the roasted garlic OUT of the skins before doing anything with it. Trust me.
..oohchocolocolatedbeans!...
