    This is what I use most of the time when I peel apples I also have a corer/peeler.

  • deborye
    deborye Member Posts: 2,441

    I have one of these also, it is only good for hard apples terrible on the soft varieties.

    Yeah, I had both of those devices before we moved to this house with my mini-kitchen.  I barely have enough oomph for the first one, and I gave the second one away because I never once used it.  Way too many pieces to clean...lol.  I'll go with the good old-fashioned peeler and knife!

    Michelle - I'm with you. I can peel a whole lot faster with an old fashioned metal peeler than with any "labor saving" peeling device. A couple of weeks ago, I made my first apple crisp since having thumb joint reconstruction surgery. I peeled 8 apples - 5 without ever breaking the peel. I was quite proud of myselfLaughing

    Deborye, I added that website to my favorites.  Once I get done with rads (December probably), I will look into it.  It looks like there are several close to my home.  Now that I have new boob and a new flat tummy, I might really want to look into that.  Can you pm what kinds of things they do?  Any idea of the costs?

    Deborye   WOW sign me up!  Not sure if I have enough money though for all the work I need done! counting on my PS to do the lipo when I get my nips and tats, after that maybe get those pesky spider veins on my legs done.

    My girlfriend will be in town this weekend and we may just have to do an apple buying trip and make some pies, she is the real cook in our group and will be up for the challenge. The apples here in NY are delicous and are starting to appear in our grocery stores. my favorite store puts little signs by the apples telling about variety and what it taste like and best used for.  I will have to read

    I like cooking with Granny Smiths and jonathons.. give me a nice tart, sweet pie please.  Our Lodi tree produced no apples this year and they are fantastic for pies and applesauce if you can find them.. a bit of rhubarb is my secret ingredient.

    Last nite i diced chicken breast and pork chops and sauteed them for a long time with two onions, Mexican spices and a can of tomatoes.. served it on fresh tortillas with guacamole, lime and pico de gallo.. yum.

    Hauntie, Macouns are my fav apples too. I haven't seen them in my supermarkets either yet.

    I am having  zucchini pancakes,applesauce and taylor ham for supper.  I have some good recipes also and will share too.

    Per DD's request, we're having chicken tenders tonight.  I'll have the leftover flounder from the other day though.  Also having some roasted beets, brussel sprouts and a salad.

    Did anyone see the Dr Oz show last week on apple juice? He talks about how high levels of arsenic in them, Gerber being the highest, scary, scary stuff,  he says to make sure when you buy apples or juice to get the ones grown in the US and make sure it is organic,

    Welcome Candie- Would love to see some of your recipes!

    My Taco pizza from last night was good for breakfast this morning LOL!

    Its Friday and our night out, so wont have to cook Yippeeeeee!

    Welcome Candie!  Zucchini pancakes sound interesting, I'm looking forward to that recipe!  And what is "taylor" ham?

      I think my fave is a Pampered Chef peeler from more than a decade ago.

    I didn't see that particular Dr. Oz, but I sure heard about it.  Actually, I don't usually watch him but I did see a part of an episode about cancer this past week. 

    I actually made it to the grocery store today, but I must admit that I was wiped out by the time I got home!  I took the afternoon to get some doctor appointments scheduled.  I am going to see the Head of Radiation Oncology at Dana Farber on 10/14.  It would be sooner but apparently all the ROs in the country will be in a conference the week prior. 

    I am making Chex Party Mix using the original recipe from the 50's (way more butter and no bagel chips!).  I'll be taking most of it to the surprise birthday party for my son tomorrow night. 

    We usualy go out to eat on Fridays, but we've been out a lot this week.  So I decided we're having grilled pork chops, corn on the cob and waldorf salad - great use of that bin full of apples!

    Debbie- mmmm taco pizza!  How did I miss that?

    Welcome Candie!!  I too look forward to you sharing your meals with us :)

    Just a quick pop in for me- I'll come back again later.  Very random, my neighbor played in some big golf tournament today and scoffed a ton of food?  I guess he knew the caterer or something?  He dropped off ribs(I've never eaten ribs) BBQ chicken and baked potatoes- a ton of it.  I have it all warming up in the oven right now for dinner.  He said it was amazing, he took some for their dinner too.  But really, how random (and nice) is that?

    Left over Sheperds Pie for suppa.

    I just got home from visiting my Dad tonight so I am not going to cook at this hour!!!

    DH decided we were going out...so I had a burger and he had steak tips.  Was just OK, but we chatted with some nice people at the next table. 

    Laurie - you've never eaten a rib????   OK, now my "Kansas City" is coming out!  I can't even imagine anyone never having eaten a rib!  I cooked them often when we were camping.  The pork country-style ribs are yummy!

    I like beef ribs, tempted to buy them a MB the ones that you just have to heat up.  I'm lazy.

  • LuvRVing
    LuvRVing Member Posts: 2,409

    I've had those cryovac ribs that are pre-cooked.  Pretty good, really.

     Does anyone know which local store chain might carry Mexican chorizo?  I struck out at my local Shaw's.  DH likes it in my chili, and I was always able to find it in KC.  Maybe I need to go check out an Hispanic grocery store. 

  • chabba

    I'd try a locally owned store in any area with a sizable Mexican population.

  • Laurie08
    Laurie08 Member Posts: 2,047

    chabba- I chuckled when I just read your post.  We're in NH, from what I have seenin my corner of the state, there is no sizable Mexican population! 

    Michelle- I know it is somewhere I have a friend who;s signature appetizer she brings to parties is that- I'll ask her.

    Laurie - didn't realize I had fallen victim to the news media, I'm usually too cynical.  With Washington's huge agricultural industry the media here would have you believe that "undocumented aliens" are everywhere in the country.

  • Laurie08
    Laurie08 Member Posts: 2,047

    lol!  In NH we have a little of everything but not a lot of anything, except maybe french Canadian heritage :)

  • debbie6122

    Laurie- That is so funny you never had ribs before- As Michelle said the pork ones are the best, you really have to try them with your favorite bq sauce.

    Definitely lots of French Canadian, starting with my family - my grandmother and her 8 siblings were all born in Canada.  I remember being in high school (that is when we returned to Nashua) and having kids that were completely bi-lingual.  They always had the advantage in French class!!!

    I'm sitting here with my costume for tonight's 70's party and DH is shaking his head.  I started with the wig because my head was cold and I figured it could use a little gravity to help the style.  I may wash it with my wig shampoo to see if it makes it a bit more manageable.  I make him model his wig and he said he isnt't going to wear it, so I played the cancer card and he said he'll wear it until it gets too hot.  I told him he'll wear it until he does the Sonny & Cher karaoke with me...lol.  Then he can take it off!  His needs to be washed and restyled, too.  So you know what I'll be doing today!!!   I need to get some false eyelashes, mine are gone and my glasse are too contemporary so I'll wear my contacts.  I've never, ever applied eyelashes, this should be a hoot!

     I made a double match of Chex Party Mix - the old, old recipe from the 50's and 60's. No bagel chips, we used Mr. Salty Pretzels which are no longer available. I actually checked all the pretzel bags to find the ones with the most sodium...lol.  There is nothing "healthy" about this snack, but then it's not as bad as half the crap that will be at the party tonight.

    Peace, love and rock'n roll!

    going on the lake today to watch the hydro boat races,  my DH informed that he invited lots of people to go along.  Off to the store I go to get some finger foods to entertain everyone.  think I will also make a huge bowl of popcorn, been craving some lately

    I have never put chorizo in my chili...what kind of flavor do you get from it?  is it hot?

  • apple

    i am so excited.. i have some oxtails and a beef bone or 5.  I am going to make oxtail soup with extra stock for later.  I just love it.  I will add whole small potatoes a can of tomato paste and vegetable reluctantly.. i love veggies but i also love an intense uncompromised beef stock.    I'll probably add garlic and onion and celery but add frozen mixed right before serving.. maybe at the table to cool the soup down.

    I don't have time to make bread today, but wish I did.  The temp. will peek at 70 degrees around 4.

    chorizo (definitely Mexican not Spanish or Portugeuse) really makes chili excellent.  I love HOT, but can't tolerate now with my mouth compromised by drugs.  I do like authentic and rarely find it too hot to handle.   good luck Carrie.  Goya sauce/marinade and lime is really good in chili too.  I like a lot of complex flavors, particularly sour-ish.
