Haha! I was watching a comedian one time who said the food network was p*rn for fat people. HAHAHA! I laughed so hard, and my husband looks at me and says "it really is!" with this look of shame on his face. haha! He's not even a bit chubby, but he thinks he is...whatever. Anyway, I just read them for fun, to learn techniques, etc. I've said it before...I'm a huge culinary nerd!

With 5.5 pounds of pie, you may want to invite a few friends! I will bring the ice cream!

I made the mistake of buying Sandra Lee's Semihomemade cookbook a long time ago. Blech! Where is the barf smiley when you need it? She uses Cheese Wiz in her recipes! CHEESE WIZ!

I would call your local store and ask what this week's/month's special is. I have had most of the pizzas on their menu and have not had a bad one.

I have not tried which wich yet, but its on my list of places to go...Perhaps I should go with you so I do not have to stand in a long line. LOL

I draw the line at Sandra Lee. I will not watch her or make her food. I think it looks NASTY! I can see how she could be good for a novice cook though...but seriously...why teach novice cooks that way? Blech!

I have mine in a cabinet and it is a HUGE MESS!!! I would never try to count them Actually, I know someday I will have to. Or I could just leave them for my kids when I die .
My favorites are right in the front. They are the ones from small town schools, electric co-ops, etc. Those are the best recipes and so easy.

Oh most definitely! Whenever I come across one of these I always have to pick one up for my mom too. Though what usually happens is she comes to visit and has me make some selections for her. Dayum I am hungry. I think I need to dig up my Bisquick cookbooks...well, for tomorrow at least.
