Makes 1 bar
1 Tablespoon dates, pureed
3 Tablespoons dry ingredients (nuts, dried fruits, coconut, oats, etc.)
- Pit dates and whir in a food processor or mash by hand until they're one sticky mass. This will be the base, the "glue" that will hold it all together.
- To this base, add about 3 Tablespoons of finely diced dried ingredients - the nuts of your choice (almonds, cashews, pecans, hazlenut, etc.), dried fruit, oats, spices, etc. with your hands mix it all together and form into a tight ball.
- Roll this ball into a rope and then pat it flat into a rectangle.
- Tightly wrap in plastic wrap (the wrapping will help the bar hold it's shape as you further mold it) and apply pressure to the top using a flat surface - a cutting board works well.
- To shape the sides you can take two knives and apply pressure to opposite ends of the bar. Refrigerate wrapped bar.
- For larger batches shape into a larger square, chill and cut into desired bar shapes with a very sharp knife.
Some tasty combinations:
- Cashew: 1 Tablespoon dates + 3 Tablespoons cashews
- Almond coconut: 1 Tablespoon dates +2 Tablespoons almonds + 1 Tablespoon unsweetened coconut
- Almond spice: 1 Tablespoon dates + 3 Tablespoons almonds + 1/4 teaspoon each: cinnamon & nutmeg + 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger.
- Cranberry coconut: 2 Tablespoons minced dried cranberries, 1 Tablespoon unsweetened coconut

Hush Puppies
...
Ingredients
- 1 box Jiffy cornbread mix
- 1/2 cup grated onion (1 medium or 1/2 large)
- 5 tablespoons buttermilk or 2 tablespoons skim milk
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 egg, slightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3 tablespoons self-rising flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 slices white bread, crumbled
Directions
- Mix all ingredients together just until they are wet.
- Refrigerate 30 minutes to 5 hours.
- To cook, heat oil to about 350-375 degrees.
- Dip a small spoon in cold water, then get a spoonful of batter, using the side of the bowl to"break-off" the spoonful of batter from the bowl.
- Immediately submerge spoon in the hot oil for a few seconds until the Hush Puppy releases from the spoon.
- Repeat this process with each Hush Puppy, until you have 6 or 7 in the hot oil.
- Do not crowd the"puppies", as you do not want to lower the temperature of the hot oil.
- Getting the spoon wet between puppies is important, as it helps keep the batter from sticking to the spoon.
- If your oil is the correct temperature, the hush puppies should be golden on the outside and cooked on the inside.
- When golden on one side, if they automatically turn themselves over, you're cooking like a Pro.
- If they don't give them a little nudge to make them turn over.
- Possible Problems: If oil is too hot, or"raw puppies are too large", they will get too browned on the outside and be gummy or runny on the inside.
- If oil is not hot enough, the puppies will be greasy.
- Put 1 or 2 spoonsful of batter in the hot oil to test it before making a whole batch of these tasty little treats.
- Adjust oil temperature as needed.
- Although not quite as good as when freshly cooked, freeze leftover hush puppies and reheat them in a toaster oven until warm. They are still mighty good.

Bacon-Wrapped Chicken
...
Directions
Take 4 deboned chicken thighs lay them out flat on your work surface.
Take any sausage you want to use, Italian, Mettwurst, pork, what ever. Mix in your choice of stuffing ingredients, my favorites are garlic, onion, parsley, thyme and some salt and pepper. Mix it well, then take a medium sized fist full and create a sort of cylinder shape. Place the sausage at one end of the flat chicken thigh and roll it up. Set the chicken pieces aside when you've done this.
Take a nice long (24 inches maybe?) piece of aluminum foil and lay it on your work surface with the long sides facing you, and the narrow end to your left and right. Lay six slices of either pancetta or thin-sliced bacon side by side along the center of the foil, ends of the bacon facing you.
Take a chicken thigh and place it at the end of the bacon strips nearest you. Pick up the foil edge and use it as a guide to roll the chicken so that the bacon strips are completely wrapped around it, then keep rolling until you seal the chicken/bacon inside the foil. Twist the ends so that the package is good and tight.
Place each of the four chicken packets in a pot of boiling water for twenty-five minutes.
Remove from water and set the chicken packets aside to cool a bit. Place the foil-wrapped chicken/bacon in the refrigerator for a half hour.
After chicken/bacon has thoroughly coole, take a frying pan and add a couple of tablespoons of olive oil. One at a time, unwrap the chicken/bacon an discard the foil. The bacon will be pink, however, the entire thing will be cooked all the way through. Place the chicken/bacon in the hot olive oil and let the bacon crisp up, turning it as it browns.
After all four chicken/bacon pieces have been browned on the outside, splash about a cup or so of marsala wine into the frying pan and deglaze. Reduce to a thick sauce by cooking on high heat for a few minutes, stirring as needed.
Place each chicken portion on a plate and slice diagonally 3/4 inch slices. Arrange on plate and spoon marsala sauce over the chicken slices.
Serve with your choice of starch and vegetable. Serves 4

I found this at Mother Earth News and have posted it here so you can see the picture and instructions together easily. But, please do visit Mother Earth News, they have lots of valuable information.Materials:
2 5-gallon plastic buckets
1 plastic funnel (from hardware or home supply stores)
Tools:
Drill with a quarter-inch bit
Saber saw
- Fit one bucket inside the other bucket. The space between the respective bucket bottoms is the reservoir.
- Mark an oblong hole in the side of the outer bucket about an inch high and 2 inches long, so the top of the hole is even with the bottom of the inner bucket. Cut it out with the saber saw. This hole serves triple-duty as the fill hole, the overflow hole and the place to stick a finger to gauge how full the reservoir is.
- Cut a hole in the bottom of the inner bucket large enough so the funnel will project into the reservoir all the way to the bottom.
- If necessary, cut the bottom off the funnel so it is about a half inch longer than the space between the bucket bottoms.
- Drill a dozen or so holes at random in the bottom of the inner bucket.
- Fit the inner bucket into the outer bucket; insert the funnel. Fill the top bucket with moist container soil, making sure that the funnel is filled, but not packed with soil. Fill the reservoir, and you’re ready to plant!

Update On Molly

I'm having fun building this blog. There is a list of many other blogs I enjoy visiting. I've added pictures of my babies.... ferrets and cats. I need to add a couple more soon, as Panda accidently had kittens. Yes, I know that means she accidently got pregnant. We were shocked. At any rate, she delivered two kittens with curiously strong cuteness on Mother's day (5/11/08). Very soon I'll be taking pictures of them and posting those to the kitty area as well.

Private Parts Are Missing In Congo!!!
KINSHASA (Reuters) - Police in Congo have arrested 13 suspected sorcerers accused of using black magic to steal or shrink men's penises after a wave of panic and attempted lynchings triggered by the alleged witchcraft.
Reports of so-called penis snatching are not uncommon in West Africa, where belief in traditional religions and witchcraft remains widespread, and where ritual killings to obtain blood or body parts still occur.
Rumors of penis theft began circulating last week in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo's sprawling capital of some 8 million inhabitants. They quickly dominated radio call-in shows, with listeners advised to beware of fellow passengers in communal taxis wearing gold rings.
Purported victims, 14 of whom were also detained by police, claimed that sorcerers simply touched them to make their genitals shrink or disappear, in what some residents said was an attempt to extort cash with the promise of a cure.
"You just have to be accused of that, and people come after you. We've had a number of attempted lynchings. ... You see them covered in marks after being beaten," Kinshasa's police chief, Jean-Dieudonne Oleko, told Reuters on Tuesday.
Police arrested the accused sorcerers and their victims in an effort to avoid the sort of bloodshed seen in Ghana a decade ago, when 12 suspected penis snatchers were beaten to death by angry mobs. The 27 men have since been released.
"I'm tempted to say it's one huge joke," Oleko said.
"But when you try to tell the victims that their penises are still there, they tell you that it's become tiny or that they've become impotent.

Molly Loves To Cook
More about who Molly is. I've been cooking all my life, the wonderful secrets and common sense I learned from my mom, and the things I learned from the professional culinary world over the years, all give me the tools I need to enjoy good cooking skills.
My fiance` raves about the dishes I serve, and our sixteen-year-old son has become so very helpful in the kitchen. He realizes that as the meal nears completion, if he comes out to the kitchen and helps set the table or give me a hand with what ever needs to be done, dinner will be on the table that much quicker. He's an angel anyway, but it's cute to see the way his appetite motivates him, too.

Meet Panda
...
Little Miss Panda is our little special needs kitty. She wasn't breathing when she was born, but someone gave her very special care and she came around, started eating, didn't have a tail, and was pretty feeble. She's about two years old now and has to be fed special food because her body requires extra nutrition.
She gives really good loving, but she does not want anyone to pick her up. She just squeals and fusses until she is set back down. She and Zeeba chase each other through the house, and they are the resident mousers. We live out in the country and from time to time a field mouse with a death wish finds its way indoors. These ladies don't give up, they stalk, they watch, and they always get their mouse.

Meet Boo
...
Is it time to play yet? Huh? Huh? Huh? Is it? Huh?
That is Boo in a nutshell. He was rescued from the local pound the same day that Jack was. Sweet little Boo is about nine months old, and ALL kitten still. He is so handsome, sleek black short fur, a charming triangle face, and he just talks and talks and talks.
Boo loves to be held and loved on, and his favorite toy is my elastic hair tie thingy. All our babies have dry food available all the time, and they get wet food for breakfast (Jack gets his scrambled egg). Boo's dish goes to the floor first because it would be impossible to do it any other way. He is right there, ready to eat, and doesn't even stop to breathe.
There is nothing shy about little Boo, and he has no known fears. He gives us all the loving we can stand, nurses on his soft little blanket and makes bread, and makes us laugh with his antics.

Wisconsin Has Morons Too
...
TWO RIVERS, Wisconsin (AP) - An 18-year-old man was severely burned Thursday after he lit a flame while trying to steal gasoline from a riding lawnmower. He and another 18-year-old man were in a Town of Two Rivers shed early Thursday, trying to extract the fuel from the mower.
At one point, they decided they needed more light, so one of them ignited burning materials, according to Manitowoc County Sheriff’s Inspector Gregg Schetter. The gasoline then exploded, Schetter said.

Flowers For His Girlfriend ...
...
MISSOURI CITY, Texas - A Missouri City, Texas, man has filed a federal lawsuit against 1-800-FLOWERS, Inc. after they sent his wife a thank-you card for flowers he ordered for another woman.
MyFOXHouston.com reported Leroy Greer ordered a dozen red roses and teddy bear through 1-800-flowers.com for a woman while he was in the middle of divorcing his wife. However, at the time the flowers were sent, Greer and his wife were reconciled.
After Greer ordered the flowers in April, 1-800-flowers reportedly sent a thank-you card to his home, which his wife saw. She then called the company, and they faxed her a copy of the receipt, the note he sent with the flowers that read "just wanted to say that 'I Love you'" and a report of what he actually purchased. His wife re-filed divorce papers and is asking him for a $400,000 divorce lump sum and $6,000 per month in child and spousal support. He is seeking more than $1 million in damages from the flower company.

Meet Jack
...
This handsome guy is Jack, we rescued him from the local pound. He is at least twenty pounds of solid kitty cat muscle. I'm amazed at how agile he is for his size.
Jack is a real lover, his favorite food is the scrambled egg I cook him everyday for breakfast because he prefers that to the wet cat food the others get.
Others? Yes, we have four sweet little babies, and you'll get to meet them all here in my blog.
Jack's playtime consists of taking a running leap and landing on the cardboard kitty scratch thing, then hugging it and looking really stoned, which he probably is because it is loaded with catnip. He also wrestles with Boo-The-Bold who delights in hiding around any corner, listening for Jack's jingling collar as he gets closer and closer, and then jumping out and tackling him. Jack could wipe Boo out with one swipe of his giant paw, yet he plays carefully with the fearless little guy.

Little Miss Zeeba
...
Meet Miss Zeeba, (Daddy calls her Precious) she is very territorial about the bed, she prefers that only she sleep with us. If one of the other kitties jumps in the bed, she gets snooty and leaves. But she is such a little lover, a sweetheart among kitties.
I took her in from someone who was giving her away on craigslist, she was three years old when she came to me. The poor little thing was incredibly terrified, it took her a month to trust me. Now I've had her for about a year and she fits right in with everyone. She adores her Daddy, although for a long time she would run and hide under the bed when he entered the room. I don't know what kind of former life she had, but she now has the best life a little baby kitty could ask for. She's spoiled rotten, but she's worth it.

This is a blog where you can browse my favorite recipes, how-to's, pictures of my cats, discover who Molly is and what she's all about, see her artwork, read her poetry, etc.
There will be many labels to browse as I build the blog, and you're always welcome to return and just look whenever.
