Halloween eve was spent in Mesquite Nevada, where we had a great meal and Cyndy played the slots for a few hours.
I found a comfortable spot to read while Cyndy played the slots.
Cyndy was off to play in a symphony concert for Halloween. It was a concert designed around child musicians. Costumes were required, thus you see at the right gypsy Cyndy.
Today I must make some pizza dough for tomorrow's pizza night.
Also I want to repeat the directions for making:
Carbon Dioxide Generator
First from the Oct-Nov issue of Cook's illustrated was suggestion from Tom Clark from Noblesville Ind. He suggested creating a carbon dioxide generator to help extend the shelf life of greens such as lettuce. Just exhaling into a bag of lettuce was not sanitary. The people at Cook's Illustrated followed through and developed a neat CO2 generator.
White vinegar and baking soda and of course a small container was all that was necessary to create a CO2 generator for extending refrigerator life of greens.
Three pieces of paper towel and a rubber band to top off the generator, yet allow the gas to escape into the plastic bag containing the greens.
Baking soda acted as the trigger.
CO2 Generator: First freeze 1 teaspoon of vinegar in the bottom of the 2-3 ounce container. Then sprinkle 1 teaspoon baking soda over the frozen surface of the vinegar. Lastly seal the top with the three layers of paper towel and a rubber band. Store in the freezer until you need it.
À bientôt.
