Thank you for commenting, Lorraine! You made my day!

I think you'll enjoy your ice cream maker...and the ice cream!

I've done that, too. Yummy!

Donna, thanks for your comment!

Thanks for your comment! This is a much-loved recipe in my family, too!

@teresarusso8623 Hi Teresa. Just start with a few cuts. You can always cut more after you see how your tree responds.

I agree.

Thanks so much!

Yes, the method is the same.

You can freeze them, but I never do. I would place them on a pan. Place the pan in the freezer until the mushrooms are frozen. Then transfer the frozen stuffed mushrooms to a freezer bag.

@@JustOneDonna ok..thanks alot

I'm sorry, but this IS a delicious way to make fried eggs. If you haven't tried it following my directions, you are missing out on a yummy breakfast. Blot before serving.

@@JustOneDonna no thanks!!

Thank you for the kind words!

Hope you enjoy!

Glad you liked it!! Thank you!🙂

It IS🙂 best not to get the leaves wet. In my experience, occasional watering from the top should not hurt the plant. Bottom watering is preferred.

You're very welcome!

I've heard the penny idea before. Apparently we should use coins minted prior to 1982.

I'm sorry to hear that! Check out this link on my blog. www.justonedonna.com/2023/11/five-keys-to-growing-healthy-ficus-tree.html There is a checklist of the things to consider when growing a ficus tree indoors.

It works!🙂

Ficus doesn't like change in my experience. Location is important. Choose a southwest or southeastern location to start. Good luck!

That is a really good question. I am extra careful when I use the bleach. I only use a little, enough to kill any bacteria. I scrub well and rinse, rinse, rinse. The birds in my yard do well with this routine, retuning often and enjoying the bird bath.

Thanks for your comment but there are two main reasons to separate the sugar and salt from the yeast in a bread machine: 1. Protect the Yeast: Salt can actually kill yeast if they come in direct contact. This is because salt inhibits the growth and reproduction of yeast. While a small amount of salt won't completely halt the process, too much contact can weaken the yeast and lead to a poor rise in your dough. 2. Control the Activation: Sugar activates the yeast, and separating it allows for some control over this process. In most bread machines, you likely won't see a huge difference if you don't use the delay timer. However, if you plan on using the delay function, keeping the yeast away from the warm water and sugar ensures it doesn't activate too early. So, separating the ingredients helps create the ideal environment for healthy yeast activity, leading to a beautiful rise and delicious flavor. That being said, if you're not using the delay timer, it might not be critical for every recipe. Always follow the instructions for your specific bread machine and recipe.

Enjoy!

If you swap molasses with honey, maple syrup, or brown sugar you will make a cookie with a different flavor profile. I don't recommend it.

Thank you so much 🤗

I used Ghirardelli Premium Baking 100% Cocoa Dutch Process. I would call it dark cocoa powder. This recipe, with that cocoa powder, had a deep chocolate flavor. The mix of sugars was perfect to my taste. I suggest you try this combination and then tweak it to your personal preference.

LOL, if I had a $ for every time someone expresses concern about this! Really, I don't scratch my non-stick pans with my utensils, but thanks for your concern.🙂

Thanks for sharing, but already posted: www.justonedonna.com/2022/08/easy-creamy-vanilla-ice-cream.html

You are so welcome! Thanks!

You are so welcome!

No, I didn't rinse the rice.

Yes, of course! You'll get a different result but it will be delicious.
