~*~ MAGGIE'S WORLD ~*~



Good morning to one and all. Guess what? The ezine
rating service that we all love to hate is back UP. Yes,
cumuli.com is up and running again after a VERY long
hiatus. Why don't you have a test drive now?

http://www.cumuli.com/ezines/ra20729.rate

Thanks!


I have a few days off and will be spending them doing one
of my LEAST favorite things...looking for a place to live.
My lease is up and the landlord loves this property SO much
that they decided to give themselves a raise. Unfortunately,
I have decided against it. Wish me luck. I submitted a
30-day notice to leave and I have NO WHERE to go. Oh,
after finding a place...I will be doing my very LEAST favorite
thing: MOVING. Ugh!

Now, to one of my MOST favorite things: FOOD. Since we
share recipes regularly that would be suitable for celebrations,
holidays, etc., I am not dedicating an entire issue to them. I
know, most everyone else is. That's why I'm not. Most of
you subscribe to other publications and have websites you rely
on for such things. I really want to keep this a bit different,
that's why I choose the weekly themes carefully. I want to
give you what you actually will use, without burdening you with
the same thing you see elsewhere. I will be sharing some of my
personal favorites with you over the next few days to give you
some ideas for holiday entertaining. These will be in the section
normally dedicated to a daily menu. Actually, since most of you
really enjoy the menu format, I will try my best to prepare one
that you may consider using for your own. Its not often that
someone chooses a holiday menu for me that suits my every
fancy. Certainly some of you are the same way. So, I will
try a few ideas and hope that you can get some recipes and
ideas for your own Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc. dinners.


I will leave you with this from Linda, CA:

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not;
nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will
not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the
world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone
are omnipotent. The slogan, 'Press on,' has solved and always will solve
the problems of the human race --Calvin Coolidge



~*~ RAMBLINGS ~*~



From Jane, Australia...

Value

To realize the value of ten years:
Ask a newly divorced couple.

To realize the value of four years:
Ask a graduate.

To realize the value of one year:
Ask a student who has failed a final exam.

To realize the value of nine months:
Ask a mother who gave birth to a still born.

To realize the value of one month:
Ask a mother who has given birth to a premature baby.

To realize the value of one week:
Ask an editor of a weekly newspaper.

To realize the value of one hour:
Ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.

To realize the value of one minute:
Ask a person who has missed the train, bus or plane.

To realize the value of one second:
Ask a person who has survived an accident.

To realize the value of one millisecond:
Ask the person who has won a silver medal in the Olympics.

Time waits for no one. Treasure every moment you have.
You will treasure it even more when you can share it with someone
special.

To realize the value of a friend:
Lose one.



~*~ HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY? ~*~



Within reason (of course) this section is for you to "vent"
and tell the rest of the membership how you feel. I will post
just about anything that is NOT unkind to the group.


"Hi Maggie, I am soooo glad you're back. Thank you, Thank you and
Thank you again for what you do for all of us.

Found out today we can finally rate Maggie a 10 for your hard work &
excellent newsletter.

FINALLY, Cumuli is accepting votes again. (Default rating is now set at
10 instead of 5).

What I was wondering is; can we really rate once a day instead of once
a week.???? I copied & pasted the message below so you can let us know
if we all should be doing this daily.

You are an awesome person to work so hard to keep so many people happy &
connected through the A to Z family.

Thank you again--You don't even know how much I need A to Z.

Love Dory

PS.   Wanted to let you know that I did sign up for Bargains.com; it was
quick & easy, after the free trial there is no obligation & no further
commitment, so I hope all of your A to Z family will do this for you!
You do so much for us--your request is a simple thing for us to do for
you."


Dory---If I didn't already know you and know you are a REAL person, I
would swear that MY angel wrote that email. Your email expresses
gratitude (bunches) and is a free gift that is the best to receive. I
thank you. Yes, looks like cumuli.com did some rearranging. I am not
sure about the once-a-day thing. I will try to go vote for the sites
belonging to my a2z subscribers again and see what it tells me. Yes,
the bargain.com is a great way to help the Mags. Lots of folks say they
don't put their credit card information over the internet and won't try.
I understand completely. The credit card companies transmit credit
card data over the internet. We trust their firewalls more than the
companies that rely on them for payments, which makes sense too.
Love,
~Mags~



~*~ DID YOU KNOW ? ~*~



Use yogurt instead of...

Yogurt, in its many forms and flavors, can be enjoyed right from the
cup, spooned over fruit, and added to many other foods. Here's some uses
for wholesome, nutritious yogurt you may not have imagined.

Yogurt instead of mayonnaise...
Blend 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard with 1 cup Plain yogurt, salt and pepper
to taste and use instead of mayonnaise in tuna or chicken salad. Add
herbs if desired.

Yogurt as a base...
For a streamlined base for soups, casseroles or cooked sauces, add 2
tablespoons all-purpose flour to each cup of Plain Yogurt.

Yogurt instead of sour cream...
Replace the sour cream in many cakes with Plain or Vanilla Lowfat
Yogurt. Add 1 teaspoon baking soda to dry ingredients with leavening
called for in recipe.

Discover yogurt cheese instead of cream cheese...
To make yogurt cheese, line a colander or large strainer with a coffee
filter. Place the colander or strainer in a large bowl. Spoon Plain
Yogurt into the lined colander. Cover and place in the refrigerator and
let drip for 24 hours to form yogurt cheese. One pint of yogurt yields
about one cup of cheese.

Please send hate mail to Linda, CA...

Two ministers rode their bikes to the park every Monday to discuss that
Sunday's sermon. One Monday the first minister asked the second
minister where his bike was. The second minister said that he thought
one of his congregation had stolen his bike.

"That's terrible!", said the first minister. "Who could have done it?"

"Well...", the second minister says, "I don't know but it must be one of
them cuz I remember riding my bike to church last week and now it's
gone!"

"I have an idea", says the first minister; "Next Sunday, preach on the
Ten Commandments. When you get to the part about Thou Shalt Not Steal,
really lay it on thick and whoever took your bike will feel bad and give
it back!"

Next Monday the second minister rides up on his bike and the first
minister says, "See, my idea worked after all. I see you got your bike
back!"

"Yeah," says the second minister, "I got my bike back. Yesterday I
started preaching about the Ten Commandments like you said. I got to
the part about Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery and then I remembered
where I left my bike!"


Rosemarie, Kansas City, MO...

When Ralph first noticed that his penis was growing
larger and staying erect longer, he was delighted, as
was his wife.

But after several weeks his penis had grown to nearly
twenty inches. Ralph became quite concerned, so he and
his wife went to see a prominent urologist.

After an initial examination, the physician explained
to the couple that, though rare, Ralph's condition could
be cured through corrective surgery.

"How long will Ralph be on crutches?", the wife asked
anxiously.

"Crutches? Why would he need crutches?", responded the
surprised doctor.

"Well," said the wife coldly, "You ARE planning to lengthen
Ralph's legs, aren't you?"


Johnny, LA...


I've seen two shows lately that went on and on about
how mid-life is a great time for women.
Just last week Oprah had a whole show on
how great menopause will be....

        Puhleeeeeeeze!

I've had a few thoughts of my own
and would like to share them with you.
Whether you are pushing 40, 50, 60
(or maybe even just pushing your luck) you'll probably relate.

Mid-life is when the growth of hair on our legs slows down.
This gives us plenty of time
to care for our newly acquired mustache.

In mid-life women no longer have upper arms,
we have wingspans.
We are no longer women in sleeveless shirts,
we are flying squirrels in drag.

Mid-life is when you can
stand naked in front of a mirror
and you can see your rear without turning around.

Mid-life is when you go for a mammogram
and you realize that this is the only time
someone will ask you to appear topless.

Mid-life is when you want to grab
every firm young lovely in a tube top and scream,
"Listen honey, even the Roman empire fell
and those will too."

Mid-life brings wisdom to know
that life throws us curves and
we're sitting on our biggest ones.

Mid-life is when you look at your-know-it-all,
beeper-wearing teenager and think:
"For this I have stretch marks?"

In mid-life your memory starts to go.
In fact the only thing we can retain is water.

Mid-life means that your Body By Jake
now includes Legs By Rand McNally --
more red and blue lines
than an accurately scaled map of Wisconsin.

Mid-life means that you become more reflective...
You start pondering the "big" questions.
What is life? Why am I here?
How much Healthy Choice ice cream can I eat
before it's no longer a healthy choice?

But mid-life also brings with it
an appreciation for what is important.

We realize that breasts sag, hips expand and chins double,
but our loved ones make the journey worthwhile.
Would any of you trade the knowledge that you have now
for the body you had way back when?

Maybe our bodies simply have to expand
to hold all the wisdom and love we've acquired.


That's my philosophy and I'm sticking to it!

~*~ HOLIDAY FAVORITES ~*~


Hand-picked for you!


Raspberry Cookie Dough Galette
Yield: Makes 6 to 8 servings

Pate sucree, which Jacques Pepin uses to make this galette, is a classic
sugar-cookie like dough with a delicate texture. It is often filled with
custard and fresh fruit; here, only berries are used. The smearing
technique that he uses to bring the dough together is called “fraisage.”
The dough may be baked up to twelve hours ahead of filling.

Ingredients:
Pate Sucree:
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ sticks unsalted butter, softened
3 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
1 egg yolk
1 to 2 tablespoons water

Filling and Glaze:
4 cups fresh raspberries
1 cup seedless raspberry preserves
1 tablespoon raspberry brandy

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. For the pate sucree: Combine the flour, butter, and sugar in a bowl,
mixing the ingredients with a spoon or with your hands until the mixture
is coarse and just barely combined.
3. In a small bowl, stir together the egg yolk and water. Add the liquid
to the flour mixture and work in briefly; some of the flour will still
be dry. Turn the mixture onto a wooden board, gathering it into a mound.
With the heel of your hand, smear about 3 tablespoons of the dough at a
time away from you on the work surface until all of the ingredients are
blended and the dough is completely smooth and uniformly colored.
Repeat.
4. Place the dough in the center of a piece of plastic wrap about 14
inches square, and place another piece of plastic wrap the same size on
top. Roll the dough between the plastic wrap until it forms a circle
about 14 inches in diameter. Peel off the top sheet of plastic wrap, and
invert the dough onto a cookie sheet. Pull off the remaining sheet of
plastic wrap.
5. Roll the edge of the dough inward on itself to create a border about
½ inch thick all around. Press on the border so that it is tapered at
the top, and, using your thumb and index finger, pinch all around the
edge to create a decorative border.
6. Bake the dough for about 30 minutes, until it is nicely browned and
cooked through.
7. For the filling: Using any damaged or soft berries, mix about 1 ½
cups of the berries with 4 tablespoons of the preserves in a bowl. Not
more than 2 hours ahead of serving, spread the mixture over the base of
the cooked tart shell. Arrange the remaining berries on top so that they
cover the entire surface of the tart.
8. For the glaze: In a small bowl, combine the remaining preserves and
brandy. Using a spoon and brush, coat the top of the berries with the
mixture.
9. Cut the galette into wedges with a sharp knife (it has a tendency to
break when cut) before serving.
