Otokichi Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 Using Adobe InDesign CS2 on an Intel Mac running Mac OSX 10.5.x. (This "written for PowerPC Mac running OSX 10.4.x" DTP program seems to work fine, which it shouldn't?) Using a page layout program is MUCH better than trying to use a word processing program, in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 no kidding! I can remember those days when you said you never get sick. Those were the days, my friend... It's just a stupid flu. I'll get rid of it asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barefoot Contessa, Everyday Italian and 30 Minute Meals. I get alot of recipe ideas from those three shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 We enjoy those, too. We also used to like Michael Chiarello when he was still doing new shows. Robin Miller does some interesting things, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 I know a lot of people hate her, but Rachel Ray is my favorite of those. She explains everything so well - even tells you what kind of knives to get and how to hold them, so I don't need to feel too stupid asking someone else at my advanced age how to hold a &*%%$ knife. I also recently learned how to peel an avocado. Yes, I'm a little sheltered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 I like Rachel Ray too. I don't understand how she arouses such contempt in some viewers. Perhaps it's because she was so plastered all over TV all of a sudden. Though her success came gradually she seemed to explode on the scene overnight. Maybe that turned some people off? On her daily ABC talkie she seems genuine and is a very kind host to her guests, allowing them to shine and be the star of the show that day. Anyway, like you I like her.

pinkstones Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 I think part of the reason so many people don't like her is she's grating sometimes. Her voice, her over-enthusiasm for things....sometimes people can find them annoying. I tune them out and just focus on what's cooking, but apparently a lot of people can't do that. Right now I am typing this sentence and eating lunch. A true multi-tasker. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 We have had a heat wave for a couple of weeks now -33º C at 10PM- so it' s not going to be easy to get some sleep. So thanks god I got the flu and fever keeps me sleeping most of the day/night And in case I don' t have fever -because I'm doing much better- I am looking for an old box of Ambien that I'm sure I kept somewhere among my stuff when I stopped taking sleeping pills when I lived in the other house, five or six years ago... I might spend the whole night looking for that pill but I'm sure it is somewhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel Ray has some really weird recipe ideas though, like Macaroni & Cheese with Almonds? Why would that be appealing to anybody. Otherwise she's a good host.

Shawna Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 I've noticed she uses nuts with a lot of her recipes. Says they give things flavor. I guess that's all fine and good... if you like nuts. Which I generally don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
