Guest guest Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 , I'm listening. The big cooler goes in the car before the kids! I don't have any NT recipes but there is a soup I was thinking about making out of Dr. Mercola's total health cookbook. Tony R.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 For anyone who is more computer literate than me (which is most people) -is there someway that we could create a list of who is coming and what they might bring?

I went ahead and did this. To use it, simply click Database in the box to your left. You will see an item called " Sharing & Caring Sept. 25 " Click on that. Then you will see a new table that has two headings: " Name " and " Bringing what? " To add your name and item(s), just click Add Record. Type in the appropriate information in the corresponding box. When finished, click Add Record (it might say Save Record, I forget which). Your data will then be saved. I believe you can go back and edit later if something turns out to be unfeasible for you, but I'm not 100% sure of this. Any questions, let me know. ~Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 Okay, upon checking, I found you CAN edit your own info. So that's helpful. ~Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 Great idea and great job, Joe! Could you add another field for " Wanted " or " Looking for... " I would love to post what I am looking for, I bet others are of the same mind. And that would help people to think of what they could bring (like Therese suggested Piima milk, that made me think of my Piima cultures- just needed some incentive, after all! ;-) Sara PS Just a FYI, Lynn H. makes a terrrrific cheese! I didn't ask what kind it was, but it was delicious! I am not so sure about making mozzerella cheese, I would end up with whey too much whey to deal with! Unless I could find a way to unload lots quick.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 It's colby cheese- not aged or " dried " , just very fresh.

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 I think it would work well to have the first hour to buy. Although we may not have many people the first time, my guess is that eventually we will have more people interested in coming. I am finding that even people who are interested in eating well are just giving up because they cannot find the time to spend in the kitchen. They want to just buy it so they don't have to give up their life as it is. Instead of changing the way they eat, they are looking at finding the ultimate supplement that will make them healthy. Sometimes I have to admit, I would love that to happen also, especially when I become really busy. If this is true of many of you, my guess is that the best thing we can do is try to get everybody to specialize in one thing (more if anyone wants to), but it would be good for all persons to become actively involved. We don't need to make it mandatory, but we could do some encouraging. Also, if we allow one hour of shopping for those who bring something it may be an incentive for more people to try some recipes. This could be the answer to the time problem. I love it!!! Fwd: Sept 25 > > > Everyone, > > Therese brings up some very valid points. Jane, did too, in her recent email to the group. We need to get a sense of how many people will attend, i.e. 5? 25? I'm with Jane in that I would want time to shop as well as time to sell, and I'm with Therese in that we don't want product duplication! ;-) > > Perhaps the first hour it could be only the sellers buying. Those people who brought things to sell can go around looking to swap or just buy outright (or pay for the difference). The problem with this approach is that there wouldn't be someone " minding " the store. But we could probably solve this with having floaters or a spouse at the table so the seller is free to shop. Then after the first hour other people who came with nothing to sell could browse and buy. This all probably would take 2 hours? I thought of the " Round Robin " approach too, but can't wrap my mind around that, for some reason. Just one " floater " would be needed in that way but it will be more time consuming. > > Products I probably will bring: Wild Grape Jelly & Raspberry Jelly (probably some with low sugar, and some with stevia) Piima milk (thanks for the tip, Therese! I have some culture that I should get busy with!) and maybe some homemade Mozzerella cheese! Mmmm! I'm already salivating about Sept. 25! ;-) > > And people, remember, if you are coming, to bring a BIG cooler! Tony, are you listening? ;-) As I understand it, we are also welcome to bring spouses, families and friends. > > Oh, Therese, the link to the DiscussingNT group is here: discussingnt/ Take a look in the files and databases for recipes, once you join. A mini gold mine! ;-) > > Sara- (keep scrolling down!) > > -------------------------- > > From: " Kissel " > " Sara Rheault " > > > Sara and anyone else who is interested, > > I actually don't know much about NT or food preservation in general. I've just been trying alot of the recipes lately. I just learned about NT less than a year ago. I would be interested in the DNT group. Could you send me a link or tell me how to find it? > > What type of recipes/products were you looking for? I'm curious to know what everyone else is bringing too. I'd hate for everyone to bring the same things. The kinds of things that I would like to buy (if anyone is making them) are; > > -Sprouted / dried grains and beans. > -Piima cream > -Creme fraiche > -Buttermilk > -Kefir (grains also) > -Preserved lemons > -Dried coconut meat > -Fresh baked bread > -Sourdough starter > -Any of the snack foods > > I know it's a big wish list....but a girl can dream can't she? > > I've tried Piima cream and Kefir and had some problems with both. I only tried the Piima once and haven't gotten around to it again. It seems that the Kefir is something you have to keep up on and babysit even if you are just storing the grains. That's sometimes hard when you're busy with a toddler and such. > > A few things that I have made, but unfortunately do NOT have extras of are; ketchup, mustard, beef & chicken stock and peanut butter. I think that they all turned out well. The ketchup has a bite from the cayenne though. > My husband isn't sure about the coconut taste to the peanut butter, but I like it! > > Anyhow, I should save some of this to discuss on DNT and at the gathering on the 25th! > > Everyone, please share what you are going to bring and what you would like to buy!!! > > Therese > > > __________________________________________________ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
