Miss Snark's Wish Is My Command

Yesterday in a fit of tiredness, I came across some hilarious posters and over at Cobwebs Of The Mind, my other blog on Writing, I started a series about them called "Writing And Despair Happy Hour". You can see the posting under the title: Writing And Despair Happy Hour (Part 1).

One of those posters was just so Miss Snark that I devoted it to her. It is perfect. True Snarkyness (or is that Snarkiness?). Right before I went to sleep, I fired off an email to Miss Snark telling her about the Blog entry, but also giving her just a link to the poster, never expecting her to look at the blog, but certainly wanting to share the poster with her.

Imagine my surprise when I opened my email and found an answer from Miss Snark and saying she posted the link to the poster and my email on her site. You can see it on her Blog entitled: Another day, another keyboard. KY! call the keyboard store!

In her email to me Miss Snark requested (does she request? order? beg? - hah that would be funny Miss Snark begging - well she would if I was GC!) asked that I name a fire extinguisher after her.

Well here you go Miss Snark. Your own, special Snark Fire Extinguisher. Just for you.
From now on at Help! I Have A Fire In My Kitchen and in Cobwebs Of The Mind I will use the Snark Fire Extinguisher for those especially dumb scammers and trollers (can I use it for agents who don't like my query letters too?)

But this is for you Miss Snark.

This is the last of Paula's recipes for "food & cooking staples" so far. She writes: Sometimes you run out of an item midway through baking. It is fun to be able to make the missing content out of items you have sitting in your cupboards. Baking Powder Ingredients: 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch 2 Tablespoons Cream of Tartar 1 Tablespoon Baking Soda Just whisk together until evenly blended Baking Art Print 12 in. x 6 in. Buy at AllPosters.com Fifty Percent (50%) of all revenue of any product purchased through Help! I Have A Fire In My Kitchen goes to help feed needy families in Israel. The funds are donated directly to the needy families - regardless of religion, race or creed. The remaining 50% will be donated to a Rape Crises Center for Women in Israel. Paula obviously has a knack in the kitchen. I took this recipe but remember folks it implies you have Cream of Tartar and implies Cornstarch and Baking soda. If I had all this stocked in my kitchen - trust me I would al

Shrek Cookbook - Book Review

This book review was solicited by the publishers of the Shrek Cookbook and contains my opinion of the book. For kosher readers of Help! I Have A Fire In My Kitchen - This is not a "kosher" cookbook though the majority of recipes in the Shrek Cookbook can be used as is, or with just a few sane and healthy substitutions, can be kept kosher. (Indeed as far as I could tell every recipe in this book can be kept kosher.) It is not that difficult to find equivalent and healthy kosher substitutes these days, especially in the United States. Book Details: The Shrek Cookbook , published by Dorling Kindersley ( www.dk.com ) is a publicized as a cookbook for children (ages 4-8). It's 30+ recipes come in Ringbound Hard Cover, so the pages can be turned easily while the book lays on a counter top. The font is large, catering to the child and p
