I can deliver her up to any halaal butcher in the Seattle area you specify. You'll need to work out details with the butcher. (I don't want amateurs to do the slaughter -- it's a nice goat and deserves not to die painfully.)

I don't know exactly how much she weighs -- maybe you'd get 30lbs of meat from her. PM me if you're interested.

(I thought I'd offer her to Guppers first.

Cool.

Anyways! I have a HUGE GINORMOUSLY GIGANTIC problem. :(

Everytime I make cheesecake the biscuit is too crumbly. I can't add more butter because the taste of butter will become overpowering. And I also froze the damn cake :smack: But as it set to room temperature the base still crumbled. :hinna:


Should I use golden syrup? :D :halo:

I need some potluck ideas. I have several limitations:

- no salads or desserts (the others are bringing those)
- needs to serve at least 20
- can't re-heat (the microwave is tiny so serving dishes do not easily fit inside)
- if it's a desi dish - can't be too spicy

So what would you suggest as an entree that can be served cold or room-temperature and I can make the night before?

Thanks in advance! ]]> Household Affairs and Cuisine corner Sehrysh http://www.paklinks.com/gs/household-affairs-cuisine-corner/372488-potluck-cold-non-heat-entree-main.html http://www.paklinks.com/gs/household-affairs-cuisine-corner/372473-eid-ki-dawat.html Wed, 18 Nov 2009 20:42:34 GMT So what are you planning to cook on Eid?

I cannot let it go because if I dont have something to eat all the time, I feel weak. I dont eat full meals, I eat small things all day long. Fasting is really really hard for me but I try.

The thing is, I finally got a job and its a desk job. When I walked in, I saw SO many seriously obese people; it scared me. I know its because of lack of activity and bad eating. I cant let myself go down that road.

Im already a curvy woman and in the process of losing weight. When I was home, I could control my food intake really well. But at work, when I get hungry I have to eat something...anything...right away otherwise I feel like Im going to pass out. And yes, I have passed out before...once about 5 - 6 years ago. Ever since then, I keep candy or a tiny pack of cookies with me all the time. When I get that light headed feeling, I pop something in my mouth right away.

I need ideas on what to keep with me in my bag or purse that is healthy but energizing. ]]> Household Affairs and Cuisine corner PSquared http://www.paklinks.com/gs/household-affairs-cuisine-corner/372191-chronic-muncher.html http://www.paklinks.com/gs/household-affairs-cuisine-corner/371851-shami-kebab-chicken-kebab.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 07:07:44 GMT can someone post receipe can someone post receipe ]]> Household Affairs and Cuisine corner E2050 http://www.paklinks.com/gs/household-affairs-cuisine-corner/371851-shami-kebab-chicken-kebab.html http://www.paklinks.com/gs/household-affairs-cuisine-corner/371850-oil-do-you-use-cooking.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 07:07:03 GMT I just start cooking recently so dont have any idea which oil is good for cooking. please help me I just start cooking recently so dont have any idea which oil is good for cooking. please help me ]]> Household Affairs and Cuisine corner E2050 http://www.paklinks.com/gs/household-affairs-cuisine-corner/371850-oil-do-you-use-cooking.html http://www.paklinks.com/gs/household-affairs-cuisine-corner/371415-your-dream-room.html Sun, 15 Nov 2009 21:55:58 GMT *If you were on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition; what kind of room would you ask for?*

For thanksgiving I'll be making traditional cranberry sauce, some sort of string beans, I am thinking of steam roasting a whole chicken or if I can get turkey breast, I will roast it. Not sure what else to make.

For Eid, I am thinking of making something and taking it to the masjid... maybe cranberry walnut brownies???

I am not too good at making desi sweets or sweets in general so I want to keep it simple and easy. ]]> Household Affairs and Cuisine corner Lusi http://www.paklinks.com/gs/household-affairs-cuisine-corner/371395-eid-thanksgiving-dinners.html
