Just stay away from all the Farah and Michael threads, any thread
started by Andy, any thread in which PeterL is involved in, and
anything with the word Sheldon in it and you'll be fine. That
leaves 1/5th of the group.
The OT threads are attractive to people who don't have a clue how to
cook but they're distracting and discouraging for those who do know
the business side of a pan. As the OT threads grow to record
proportions, the actual cooking info in the group falls like a lead
zeppelin.
But if I didn't occasionally glance at some of those OT threads I'd
have forgotten many people even existed - so they do serve some
purpose, I guess.

Some OTs are a lot of fun. I love the cooking stuff more, though.

this one.

Good. Post some recipes and/or food talk. If you're not part of the

Thanks. I will file that with all the other advice I am getting here
and in other groups. It really is helpful to know who is who.

My favorite salad:
lb macaroni
qt mayonnaise
two #2 cans baby peas
two#2 cans French cut green beans
four small cans tuna
dozen eggs, hard boiled
salt, pepper, dry mustard
Chop the eggs, of course,and drain the peas and beans and tuna, but
the rest is obvious.
Season to taste and eat within a week.
How's that?

Quart of mayo? I'll pass. That's a lot of food to finish in a
week. That's all I'd be eating if I were to eat it all.

Different. "-) I've never seen green beans in a macaroni salad.
Interesting. And to suit my taste, I'd use frozen peas instead of
canned, but if you like the canned ones, that's your prerogative.

And don't believe everything Gregory says, either. Best to make your
own decisions, Vesper. Be an independent thinker. :-)

I suggest you stick around and read the group and find out for yourself.
Don't take someone else's opinion because there is too much history of
arguments, insults, and alliances between folk for you to believe
everything they tell you about someone else.

It would probably hold together ok with less mayonnaise. I buy a
quart for it and I am not sure I use the whole quart in the salad.
