I guess I'm elected ... Well, I guess I got the ball rolling with my Almond Skillet Coffee Cake recipe, so I guess it's up to me to start a separate recipe thread? :wink: I'll start one in a minute ...

An alternative ... Well, if it doesn't sell on eBay for the 29K buy it now price he could always try selling it on BJ since they push the cars on and off the stage to sell them anyway! He wouldn't need to get it running ... :grin:

House calls ... No, but I can at least give you the recipe! :wink: Note: These are not exactly a DIET cookie! :eek: Al’s Killer Toll House Cookies 3 ½ cups of sifted flour 2 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. salt 1 c. butter (or margarine or shortening) 18 tbsp. granulated sugar 18 tbsp. brown sugar 1...

... and ... The other decadent favorite that I take into work that they beg for is a totally "loaded" version of Toll House Cookies ... full of Chocolate Chips and Pecans ... :wink:

Today's culinary delight ... Further to my last post, my wife had a girlfriend of hers over for a weekend visit, so I made her brunch today. Vanilla French Toast with Bananas topped with cinnamon and powdered icing sugar ... Any other "home chefs" out there with flour under their fingernails...

No sale yet? What? Nobody's bought this yet? Surely SOMEONE deserves a special Christmas present this year? :wink:

Anyone Christmas baking yet? No kidding ... Being the number one cook in our house I also do 99% of the baking too ... all throughout the year, not just for Christmas. This is a fairly good one, was a big hit when I took some into work for the rest of the staff. Mmmmmm .... good! :grin: Here...

Lucky thing ... It's a good thing that I backed our C/S out of the garage LAST Sunday before we got the snow flurries, and ran it for a while to keep the battery up! Now that we've installed the optional factory clock it just keeps ticking away ... and slowly draining the battery ... :cool:

More of the same! Well, last night we hit a record low for Victoria in November at - 10.5 degrees (before wind chill) and got another dump of snow! Supposed to warm up and rain this weekend, but I'll believe it when I see it ...

It's even cold in "balmy" Victoria ... Here in Victoria we were at -5 yesterday and had a snow flurry, which is nowhere near normal since we're usually still doing flower counts out here this time of year! :eek:

(Guess what a bunch of the family is getting for Christmas this year?) :grin:

Done! Two 5 packs ordered! Thanks again Jon for all you do! :wink:

Mmmmm .... cookies! :grin:

Plus many thanks ... ... and many thanks again to our good friend and extraordinary GT/CS mechanic Chris McCabe, who also happens to have a background in photography. It was his idea to shoot this year's photo as a night shot with the Victoria harbour in the background. He supplied the high...

Empress Hotel Hi back Amy, Well, although it is the Victoria harbour at night in the background, The Empress Hotel is a bit further off to the left of this photo. Like you, we couldn't quite get the shot we really wanted as the perimeter road that runs around the Victoria harbour is always...

We were out at a local tire shop getting a new set of tires installed on our camper van and this was parked outside. They had just installed a new set of tires on it for the owner. It's a VW based kit car made to look like a Hummer called a "Wombat". Never seen one before, but looks like it...

A new possibility? This could get even tougher if it winds up as a 3 way tie? :rolleyes: You might have to flip a coin ... more than once! :wink:

Underneath ... Ours is "brown road dirt", speckled with "black asphalt" and a few small patches of light "red rust" ... :grin: ... mind you our car gets a fair bit of road use during the Spring and Summer while it is licenced and driveable ... (All kidding aside, we're not sure on the...

Another option (or 2) ... If there is a tie for 1st place you could always use the 3rd place winner instead! :grin: All kidding aside, you could always post the 2 tied pictures in a new poll and have a "shoot off" vote to decide between them ...? Would that drag it out too long? Do you have...

Fairly tight race so far! I hope more members are going to vote before the deadline ...
