photoshooter wrote: Here is what I have been taught about cooking.
My mom is the typical leave it to Beaver mom. Cooked, cleaned, ironed.
So, being a child of the 60's I was taught, to have supper ready for husband when he comes in from work. Food, like real food ready.
Baked potatoes can even be done in the microwave now. Hamburger patties, are easy. Liver and onions a cinch. See dinner is almost ready.
I'll just be having the baked potato thanks lol. I grew up where my mom didn't allow any one in her kitchen including me. When I married for the 1st time I had no clue how to use a " manual" can opener. if it wasn't electric I couldn't use it. I had an easy bake oven, odd my burning carreer started at a very early age and just progressed lol My kids all knew when dinner was done in our home when the smoke detectors went off on all three floors. I made a meat loaf a while back and the wild animals out side wouldn't eat it. I can sit back and make fun of my self because I really can't cook and it's truly torture for me to HAVE to try. I'm not being a snob but eating out is my way of life and I'm not trading it. My mother was from the " old school" waste not , want not. She cooked nightly and force me to eat. I admit I have a huge issue with food. I can go 2 days with no food and I'm fine. My typical diet through out the day is perhaps a cup of tea umm let me see maybe a bag of popcorn or a slice of cheese. I'm not a food person. I haven't eaten since yesterday ,, I'll have to get some thing later but still not hungry.
Any how your food sounds great, veggies are great. Can you make me a pecan pie? I like nuts, pastichios especially. I eat a hand full of nuts about every day. Nuts and popcorn, yummy.

If we are (sometimes) complaining about the quality of the food here,(Okeechobee) why don't more people stay home and cook.?
We cook constantly. Sheppard's pie. Lasagne.
Boston cream pies.
Fried pork chops, mash and gravy, greens, corn bread.
Brocolli cole slaw.
Sweet tea.
Baked fish and home made potato salad. corn on the cob.
Grilled hoagie rolls, small pieces of steak, melt cheese. By the time we ix all this food, I know we cook better than any restaurant in town. I just do not understand why mom's don't seem to like to cook anymore, it is so easy to do. It sems to be more economical too.
We have 4 in our family all adults, and just love it. Enough food cooked in one day to last 2-3 lunches, have plenty of covered containers, and all of us have full time jobs,
go to church, and extra curricular activities too.
Thoughts?
Darn I had the whole thing typed out and lost power grrr. Now to begin again.
I'd like to invite you photoshooter to my home for a home cooked meal. I'll make a nice ham hehehehe. According to a lot of people I scare them when I cook and rightly so. I scare my self to have to cook. Don't feel I'm a snob or any thing but I don't understand how some people can actually enjoy cooking. Just the thought of going into the kitchen to HAVE to cook is torture to me and others that have been put thought my torture eatery. After I finish cooking aka burning and exploding the food like the last ham you can sit and chuckle as we all do. Then order out lmao. I've been know to explode three microwaves, catch 4 stoves on fire and had 15 ft flames to the ceiling . The good news was that I was wondering how to get the cob webs down from that high up,, problem solved with the flames. I also had 60 guests waiting for there burnt offerings that evening lol. Aww the memories.
My idea of cooking goes some thing like this: open a can of corn, eat off the top, bottoms burnt.
Bake buiscuits at 400 degrees for 4 hours, hubby comes home and says " I see your doing hot stone therapy tonight."

Bake ham for 10 hours, friends come over friend carves ham and it explodes into a cloud of smoke,, where's the ham? I can still see the looks on Acid Ryans face and her hubby that carved that ham lmao, priceless.
Oh my favorite. I tried canning tomotoes once. Got down to the last 4 minutes after all day long working on this torture devise, all jars exploded , pop, pop, pop, I HAD yellow flocked wall paper in my kitchen. Notice the word HAD?
So you are cordially invited to dine with me at any given time and walk away with a whole new understanding of why are there restraunts?
Trust me if I built a home, I'd build it on the site of a previous home don't want to take away habitat, but it would have a sink, microwave and fridge for the drinks. Other then that Icabods here I come.
Photoshooter,
please please, do not eat at luna`s her idea of food is take out or burnt to a crisp and besides the ER is to far away, word of caution, if she is in the kitchen the fire dept is on call, NO JOKE..so if you like your tummy and want to keep it bring your own food       
ROTFLMAO, my belly hurts from laughing.     and finally yes I am of burn.Last edited on Thu May 21st, 2009 10:41 pm by Luna

tonight, it will be rib eyes on the grill, scalloped potatoes, and a tossed salad, corn bread sweet tea, no dessert planned yet.
All guests do the clean-up, clear the table, put dishes into the dishwasher, and mop the kitchen floor, cause we like everything clean, so we can start breakfast in the AM.
which will be waffles, lots of butter and syrup, bacon or ham, hot vanilla flavored coffee,
and eggs if we want them.
Hungry yet?
Omgess you made me so hungry the other day lol I said wow, I'm on my way. Yes I'm hungry!!!! Todays my rebirthday and I'm to go out for dinner , we like a place called Don's restraunt down town Labelle They have good steaks. I don't eat much meat so it's shrimp for me. I can relate to the frozen food section. I walk into the grocery store cringing and trying to gather what I NEED , like a can of pre made soup ( microwavable kind) and other microwavable foods, like pizza bites. Last night my man came home and said where';s dinner, I looked at him and said in the fridge it's called lunch meat and cheese, the breads on the counter. I said you've got to be kidding me, I cooked LAST NIGHT, what more do you want!!!
Ok, so where do you live, how do I get there and I don't do windows lol. After dinner it's off to the casinos for a few hands of blackjack and some slots. Care to join me?lol. I don't win but I sure can stretch 20.00 for hours.

Call Jim McCoin or Joe Levy they can tell u. Or go by the Skip's Restaurant and check the new decor. Workers will be able to inform u. Also, the business License dept. will have knowledge if it is or not.
Hope this helps

Yes, we do cook because there are 4-8 people at our home every day.(i t is called a circus)
My Mother, however lives alone, and her cooking habits have changed very much. So, she invites many folks over for dinners, luncheons, etc. to stay busy, stay happy, as can be expected, and she can use her marvelous cooking skills on others.Our gift of cooking comes from a full line of inheritance.
Yes, cooking is tedious, but our family enjoys it so much, to be together and share.
If I lived alone, microwave, here I come too.

To me cooking means the Microwave get turned on. I am a great cook, but cooking is too much time and trouble when it is just me, and I get home from work so late. I cook on the weekends when I have the kids, and some times I will cook some thing on Sunday that I can eat left overs from the rest of the week. Mostly I just shop in the frozen food section though.

Sounds crazy to me but that is from a reliable source.
Well as of today the ft drum diner is still open .. I have personally known the owner and the family since 1962 and I find it hard to believe that he would just walk in and tell him employees like that ... I have a call into him and will find out the scoop...Why would anyone leave the south side of town and head into a " ghost" town like ft drum ?????

Skip's closed. McCoin bought the restaurant after it closed (never ran it). He is reopening it as a seafood restaurant name SkipJacks.
When are they going to open. I imagine it will be take out as there is not much of a dinning room at Skip's

Well sounds good to me. After Captian D's closed I wished that area had another good seafood place to go. Will have to try it when they open. If any one gets over to the Ft Myers area please try Icabod's. It's on I believe 41 not good with directions but it's next to the Bell Tower Plaza off Daniels Exit off 75 I believe. It looks like an old Irish pub and on weekends they have live bands. This place is fantastic and low cost. I ordered a full lobster stuffed with real crab meat actually it was a crab cake, you can order any three side dishes plus drink for 26.00 and some change. For three adults to eat there it was less then 67.00 including drinks( non alcholic) and desert that took all three of us to eat lol. Any how try it if your over that way is all I can suggest. I eat out a lot for obvious reasons so I can let you know where the good places are to eat lol.

Stay open at night for the drunks at least. it being exacty across from the motel, what a great location!
It was real cute on the inside, and the fried green tomatoes, to die for.
Oh wow, I didn't know Pats was closed. Aww another one gone. I heard Skips also closed down. When I lived there we'd eat at Pats about 3x's a week. I thought there food was good, never had to send any thing back but I didn't like there instant mashed potatoes. All in all I'd say it was a decent place to eat. The girls all knew us and brought us our drinks before we even said any thing lol. I'll miss not going there any more. I guess now you have fewer to chose from which should bring in more revenue to the remaining eateries. Diva, how are you doing? Next time through I'll have to stop and say hi in person.Last edited on Tue May 19th, 2009 09:46 pm by Luna

It dont surprise me the food was nasty and so was the dining room I have a couple of friends that worked for her and they said she was real b**ch to work for. Its probably best she closed it down before someone got sick from eating the garbage she called food.
