Tied two new mantles on my dual fuel Saturday morning on the kitchen table before heading out. Lit them up to pre-burn them (without the gas on). Everything looks good so far - - wait, a dime-sized hole just appeared in one mantle. After a little tantrum, I opened up another pack and tied a new one on (being extremely careful not to damage the ONE good one). Pre-burned this one, and finally, two good mantles. Carefully re-installed the globe and turned the gas on low and lit. Oh look - - a pea-sized hole in a mantle. Later out on the ice while carefully pumping the lantern, one mantle broke halfway off.
Am I doing something wrong??? The instructions on these Green Tops are very vague, and are basically just some generic little pictures. I know I'm not the only one fed up with these pieces of ****. Can't you guys come out with a more durable product?!?! I don't remember ever having these problems with the Gold Tops.
there a bugger to clean but oh so worth it.
mom used to brown it rolled in flour and salt and pepper. put it in a roaster add onions, dry onion soup mix and bake it. depending on how bog or old it was pretty much depended on how long it needed to bake!!!!! usually a good 3-4 hours!!!!
Any recs on how to find a good general dentist in Stamford? I will be paying cash. Getting a referral from a trusted friend or family member would be nice but let's say this isn't an option.
Thanks
We get eggs from locals who have chickens. The difference in shelf life between washed and unwashed eggs was weird the first time I heard it. Months for unwashed; maybe a month for washed.
Farm fresh is a fair amount different than from the grocery store. Bigger yolks and thinner shells are two of the more noticeable differences. I had my first red yolk eggs a few weeks ago. Kinda freaked me out but it’s no big deal really.
