hi Will,
I’m not sure if the recipes in Betty Crocker were very healthy (I eat a lot differently now than when I was a kid), but they are fun to make as a kid, and I think it’s good for kids to learn to cook. ~ Steve

I have two 1960′s Betty Crocker cookbooks. Have not used them in a long time. I’ll have to look for them unless my wife got rid of them thinking they were unused.

I took care of my 3 children part time for 8 years and then full time for 12 years. Even homeschooled them. It was more than a full time job, but definitely more than worth it.

The video was funny, but also great in that it showed the convincing pride he has in his role. I sure hope he is indeed a full time stay at home dad and not just a good performer.

hey RT/Master,
Any Friend of the Trade Show Guru can call themselves anything they want, including their Guru-given surname. All others must follow the Guru’s 10 Rules for Enlightened Comments (just updated). I’m thinking about a few new plugins, including the one you suggested, but I need to see how they fit in with the overall “Master Plan”.

Hey, Steve, you should add keywordluv so that the DF anchors will look cool.

hey RT,
You are correct on 3 men in a boat. I had forgotten about using a triangle of a slice of American cheese to make the sail. I just remembered the 3 mushroom men. Now I’ve got to see if I can find that old cookbook so that I can give it to my kids. ~ Steve
PS. Aren’t google and wikipedia amazing!

I’m starting to feel like I have a personal blog stalker.

Here:

Hollow out part of a baked potato so it looks like a boat Fill the hollow with creamed dried beef Cut a sail from a firm slice of cheese and stand upright in the boat on a toothpick. Three mushrooms on edge of potato “boat” are “3 men”. — Betty Crockers Cook Book for Boys and Girls

It’s also the name of a book from the late 19th century which was turned into 5 movies. And… it’s also slang for the word stop in Iraq due to the shape of Arabic character for the word.

Okay, I cheated. I used Google and Wikipedia.
