It is. It's quite good.

You can even modify this a bit to make it into a nice drink.
Increase the wine to 2 or more cups. Serve as a punch.
I think canned peaches work better for the punch, though.
Especially if you don't completely drain the syrup.

For some time now his recipe posts only show up when somebody quotes
them, never by themselves initially. Why do you suppose that is? I
usually don't find the recipes interesting but wonder about their noon-
appearance. -aem

My posts to this group are being deleted from Google's archive.
I have no idea why. It seems a stupid, perhaps petty thing to
do.

Have you killed another Mike? You'd need to make an exception for
Mike Muth if you have.

It's not a killfile issue. My posts don't stay on Google very
long and aem uses Google Groups.

Have you figured out how long they stay? Is it faster than the x-no
archive feature?

I don't see how anyone can use google groups as their main news
reader. How do you know if there's a new post in a thread and which
one it is?

I use google because I haven't found a free news server worth
anything. Google is OK. You can mark posts. My ISP no longer
supports newsgroups(Rogers the Buggers)so I can't use Outlook Express
or any other reader. I was thinking of making the big leap and
shelling out $3.95 for Tera News, but they don't do Pay Pal, and I'm
not sending credit card info over the Net. So, my point is that
Google is adequate. Not exactly what I want, but adequate.

This post reminded me of chicken and peaches. Saute' some garlic,
ginger and spring onions. Add sliced chicken breast. Add kikoman soy
sauce. I really like that brand. Add whatever else you like. Add
some sliced canned peaches along with their juice. It's very tasty.

It's usually a matter of minutes. Sometimes an hour or two.

When this first cropped up, all of my posts to this group (back
to December, when I started here) dropped out of the archive.
That's more than 360 of them. Google still shows that I posted
them, but doesn't have them anymore.

I know how it's done. I have a pretty good idea of who is doing
it. I just haven't been able to pin him down to get him to stop.

What do you mean by "mark posts"? Do you mean that star thing about
"helpful"?

The "pay" server I use is APN (Agent Premium News), which is $3 a
month and includes binaries. I bought a block at Astraweb (takes Pay
Pal) and I also have an account at Eternal-September which is the free
(no sign up fee) server a lot of people here use. Unlike you, I don't
worry about credit cards and don't trust Pay Pal. I just check to see
if they have a secured server set up for transactions and use one
credit card only for anything interweb related.

I do chicken and fresh peaches on the grill and it's delicious. Pears
in the winter are great too. Just did pork chops and apples the other
day in a pan (no soy sauce, balsamic vinegar). Yum, yum, yum.

Easy Baked Pork Chops and Apples
http://wellnessmama.com/1513/easy-ba...ps-and-apples/
February 2, 2011 By Wellness Mama


Easy Baked* Pork Chops and Apples

What You Need:

4 (or more) Pork Chops (preferably from an organic source)
2 (or more) apples, peeled and sliced into thin slices
1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar (optional but good)
Salt, pepper and rosemary to taste
2 Tablespoons butter

What to Do:

1. Preheat oven to 350.

2. Melt butter in baking dish and place pork chops in.

3. Season with salt, pepper, rosemary and any other desired spices and
pour balsamic vinegar over all.

4. Top with apples

5. Bake in oven 20-30 minutes until an internal temp of at least 140°.

6. Alternatively, you could cook pork chops and apples together in
large skillet. This only takes about 15 minutes.

7. Serve with salad and oven baked zucchini.

*I cooked mine in a skillet, used EVOO (not butter) and quartered the
apples because I didn't want them to turn into applesauce. Deglazed
the pan with the balsamic and cooked it down to a thick syrup.
Delish!

I made "Parmesan Encrusted Zucchini" last night.
http://www.kalynskitchen.com/2007/09...ni-recipe.html
Didn't boil them first - just used the oven (sprayed them and the pan
with OO Pam before coating them in parmesan). Baked at 400° for 10
minutes, then turned on the broiler for a few minutes to brown while
boneless chicken cooked on the grill pan. Served it with a mixed
green salad lightly dressed with my version of vinaigrette.

If that's important to you, you can click on "Sort by Date." Absent
that, the standard tree shows who responds where. GG's big advantage
is that it identifies the poster so you can easily skip the ones you
don't want to read. That's what makes it easy to use. -aem

Oh and if you sign in GG puts any posts in boldface that have been
posted since the last time you signed in.. -aem

Big advantage over what? All the newsreaders I've ever used, identify
each author before you open their post.

Why don't they stay long? Do you manually remove them? -aem
