What are you doing in Auburn? God I miss that place. Tell ya what, go by Mama G's and have a Momma's Love for me. MMMMMMMM.... They still running 2 for 1 specials every thursday? OOOh, or Ryans, wednesday night..... You know what I mean.

I have some friends down there. Last I was down there was for the Auburn-Georgia game last semester. Its a nice place. I take it you went to school there?

Oh yeah... '92-96.

Oh, and I was at that game too.

Great game, wasn't it? I especially liked the ending. Unfortunately, that was right after my birthday. My parents gave me a blue jacket, which was warmer than anything I brought with me. Since it was so cold, I ended up wearing that jacket zipped all the way up. All the Auburn fans kept trying to give me high fives while the Georgia fans kept heckling me.

Here's the difference between a game at Auburn and one at Georgia:

At Georgia, everybody stumbles into the stadium falling-down drunk.

At Auburn, everybody stumbles into the stadium falling-down drunk and keeps drinking.

That is not to say, of course, that a lot of Georgia fans don't drink during the game, but its 1/10 instead of 9/10.

I'm sure you enjoyed it... Grumble grumble..... ;8^) You wanna REALLY see a drunken game? Go to LSU some time. Wow.

Hehe, that's funny, my roommate this year went to Auburn for undergrad.

Woooo! War Eagle!

lemme know how you like them cookies.

Thanks for the recipe. I'm not really sure what you mean by the butterscotch nuts. I wasn't aware they were a nut... It'll be a while before I'll be able to make them, but I definately plan to.

In the meantime, the recipe is perfect for the database I'm trying to create. I have a barebones database worked out. Now, I'm trying to create a web tool to view the data. After that, it shouldn't be too hard to create a web tool to enter the data. Perhaps I'll also try to come up with a parsing tool to figure out any random recipe.

Once I get things working decently, I'll start collecting the recipes from everybody I know that is a good cook. The TV in my parents' house is already set up to modulate the signal from one of my server computers to channel 59 on all the TVs in the house, and I've set up an IR transmission system for the entire house. Once I get the server accepting IR signals (which I've already bought the parts for), I'll be able to display and control everything on the TV right there in the kitchen. The challenge is going to be in making the thing easy to control with a simple remote. If I can do it right, it may even be possible to make notes right there, such as "too much seasoning" or 8/10, so we remember next time which are good recipes. I eventually plan to set it up where it'll be possible to search by almost any criteria (ingredients, number served, thanksgiving recipes, Italian food, etc.)

Tim Tams are the only Gods worth obeying. Why do they only put 13 in a pack?
Sucking coffee thru them is the only way to eat them too.

I'm not really sure what you mean by the butterscotch nuts.

This might be where you're going wrong. Do not put butter in your scotch. Do not, in fact, put anything in it, except perhaps a little spring water. Of course, it helps if you start with decent scotch (or Irish) sipping whiskies, not quaffing whisky: Laphroaig, Bhunahabhain, Caol Ila. Not that you're going to find those for $30 a "handle", but then a "handle" is quite a lot. There's a good range at about $45 a bottle at http://www.whiskyshop.com (though you'd expect to pay more like £25 in England).

The only reason I used handle is because I can remember the prices on them better than on a fifth or other-sized bottle. Of course, more whiskey= better. I don't have any Irish whiskey (excluding Bailey's Irish Cream), although I've heard its good.

Personally, I enjoy drinking Maker's Mark or Jack Daniels on the rocks, but I haven't been a big fan of scotches.

While the Thin Mints are good, I prefer them in the Dreyer's Thin Mint Ice Cream... and you are still helping out the girl scouts.

nay, no butterscotch nuts. the nuts are very replaceable with butterscotch chips, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips etc..

I haven't been a big fan of scotches.

Blasphemy!

You probably haven't had any good scotch.

Personally, it's too rich for my blood, and I don't really drink that much, so it's hard to decide to spend $50 or more for a fifth, especially when I'd like to have more than one, so I only ever buy when I'm out.
