How Do I Keep My Frosting Smooth During Transport?
Decorating By Goobergirl1601 Updated 12 May 2013 , 9:00pm by maybenot
AI just made my first wedding cake for my nephew. My buttercream was as smooth as can be when I left home. When I delivered the cake 45 minutes away, it was bumpy and lumpy and starting to crack. What am I doing wrong? The temperature here is in the 50's, humidity is low. I has crumb coated and applied a final coat. It wasn't very thick.
I had finished decorating it the day before and stored it in a cake carrier overnight in my basement which is about 60 degrees. Since my flowers were made in fondant, I didn't want to refrigerate it.
I had used the standard American buttercream recipe with Target brand shortening, she wanted the frosting to be pure white.
Would I have better luck with Swiss buttercream? I have had his happen before. It is so frustrating when you have went to so much work and then this happens.
Thanks for any advise you can give me. I don't have a business, I just do the for friends and family as a hobby.
Crusting BCs will crack & shift as a cake is jostled. The cake is more flexible than the icing.
A bit more moisture in the BC, stiffer cake boards (doubled/tripled up cardboards or 3/16th inch foamcore), and a layer of foam (memory foam is best) under the box in the car can all help minimize this problem.

I have an HP probook 5310m that can't charge the battery. It got broken, when a charger failed and fried the charching curcuits. My question is, if it it viable to repair it? There's no warranty, so maybe we are better of bying a new one? Other than not being able to charge, it works fine, but my user can't use it like that.
Let me hear from you all.

Hard to tell what needs to be replaced, could just be the power board or could be something on the motherboard. Unless you know someone who can test the circuitry you are probably best to forget repairing it, otherwise you might spend money on it and end up without it still working. I'd sell it for parts on Ebay or something to get some money out of it.
Apr 30, 2012 at 7:12 UTC
can you borrow another charger?
the charging circuitry is inside the mainboard, this could be costly to replace as well as a tricky job to fit.
Try it without the battery plugged in also.
Can you put the HP serial into their support site to see if its under warranty?
Apr 30, 2012 at 7:48 UTC
I have tried a different battery and charger and found, that it was the charger that was at fault. I have replaced the charger.
I'm sure that there is no warranty anymore.
Apr 30, 2012 at 8:01 UTC
Plenty of aftermarket chargers around to be had for cheap, usually less than half what the OEM originally charged retail. Normally I don't go much for aftermarket parts but on equipment that's already had a good life, 25-30 dollars to get another year or so out of an otherwise OK laptop is a no-brainer. :)
Apr 30, 2012 at 8:06 UTC
I'm unclear now. I thought that a bad charger fried circuitry in the laptop and now, even with a known good battery and charger, the laptop will not run on AC power or charge the battery. Am I mistaken if you use a good charger does the laptop charge and work fine? If that is the case and all you need to do is buy a new charger by all means I agree with the Aaron buy a charger. But my initial advice still stands if the laptop just won't charge or run on AC power.
Apr 30, 2012 at 8:21 UTC
OK, I can see that I have been unclear .-)
The laptop works, when the charger is connected. As soon as it is removed, the laptop shuts down. It is not the battery, as I have tried a new one. I have also tried a new charger, just in case, without luck
Apr 30, 2012 at 8:49 UTC
check on the hp warranty checker site. In UIK the charger has the same warranty as the laptop, yet the battery only has 12 months!
Apr 30, 2012 at 9:29 UTC
Mypoorlypc, The US site for this model in the specs says that it only shipped with a 1 year warranty, which likely is up by now.
Morten, it sounds like the circuitry is fried. and it's not likely the power board, more likely it's the motherboard. It's probably not worth a mobo swap unless you can find a cheap one somewhere. That said if it works with the adapter plugged in you could use it as a spare for someone to work on in the office, etc... Otherwise your best choice is probably to sell it for part or repair and cut your losses.
Apr 30, 2012 at 11:28 UTC
A self repair using used parts is likely the only cost effective option for the notebook.
May 3, 2012 at 7:42 UTC
thanks for all the replies. I think I opt for a new PC.

These LCD stands are all VESA compatible. VESA compatibility refers to an agreed upon standard hole pattern between manufacturers of televisions and mounting brackets to ensure monitors can be mounted without issue. Also standardized from VESA are the sizes of screws used to attach the mounts to the monitors. Each of these plasma TV racks available on this page include screws, spacers, and washers for mounting purposes. While most monitors can be attached without issue, some may require specific screws that can be purchased at any local hardware store. The mount with each of these plasma TV racks is designed to hold larger televisions, and should be able to fit the VESA sizes on every monitor, including the commercial televisions available on this website.
To tower above the crowd, some stands are over 10' tall! These plasma TV racks are used at trade shows and conventions to catch attention from across a room. These stands can hold (2) monitors in either Landscape (horizontal) or portrait (vertical) format. The monitors can be displayed with one in each orientation to create an even more irresistible display. Carrying bags for holding all the components of these displays are included for transport. These accessory bags have both shoulders traps and handles to accommodate different individuals. In addition to providing an easy way to bring the units to and from events, these bags also help protect the stands from gathering dust and grime when not in use.
Some of the 10' stands have a truss design. These monitor holders feature self-screwing rods that do not require supplemental tools for production. In fact, the only tool needed is a screw driver for attach the mounts to the back of your television! Choose from either silver or black finishes, depending on the décor these pedestals will be placed in. These stands can hold (2) televisions that weigh less than 80 lbs. each and are up to 50" in size. For the VESA pattern, any of the following configurations will work: 200mm x 200mm, 400mm x 400mm, 600mm x 400mm. 300mm x 300mm will not work on this stand due to where the bracket rests on the stand itself. Safety clamps on the stand help to ensure the bracket stay securely in place. This LCD fixture is also capable of holding a single monitor mounted on the top of the unit!
If the 10' tall truss unit fits what your business desires, but are a little too big for your purposes, there are also 8' tall versions available. Like its taller brethren, these units also have the same self-screwing rods. For VESA compatibility, these smaller sizes can hold a 300mm x 300mm, 400mm x 200mm, 400mm x 400mm, & 600mm x 400mm. Due to where the mount bracket rests on these stands, use of television with a 200mm x 200mm hole pattern cannot be utilized. These monitor holders, like many tilt bracket holders, are also available in black or silver finish. One television can be mounted on the display in either landscape or portrait configuration. Two sets of poles are included with the mounting bracket in order to prevent the poles from being visible when a smaller television is mounted in portrait format!
There are two other 10' tall displays to choose from. One uses interlocking poles held together using set screws to hold the unit together. The brackets on this satin silver aluminum stand are adjustable for different heights, and can hold (2) monitors in either landscape or portrait orientation. An included carrying bag for transport holds all components of the display. The other available 10' tall monitor stand uses a travel case with wheels for transport. These wheels are also locking to stabilize the stand during transport. The display can easily be set-up in a few minutes by 1 person, and has leveling feet to ensure the stand is stable. Televisions can be displayed in either orientation and the adjustable mounts allow the monitors to be placed at the exact height your business requires. The several configurations for most monitors are available on the product page. Both of these stand options are VESA compatible for 200mm x 200mm, 300mm x300mm, 400mm x 400mm, 400mm x200mm, & 600mm x 400mm.
In addition to these LCD television stands, exhibit booths are also available! This booth features a large 10' wide x 8' tall stature. Two monitors can be mounted (in either orientation) on either side of the display. There are counters directly below each monitor. These accessory counters can be used to present from, hold electronic peripherals, display objects, or even act as an interactive station for customers to sample your wares. A wheeled travel case is used to house the components of these displays, and includes a counter-top & custom stick-on wrap to turn the case into a greeting counter! Conjoining the latest in technology with traditional promotional methods, the back of the unit can have an 8' x 8' graphic attached as an supplemental advertising opportunity. This graphic is fully customizable, and affixes to the display through 2" hook & loop touch fasteners. The unit works just as well without the graphic accessory, and its sleek truss design is sure to bring style to your company's presentation.

Who are Non-Operational People? We're just getting to grips with it. But this (at least to us) anonymous collective are here releasing a stonker of a three-tracker on Berlin label, Vakant.
We could have chosen any of that trio, but our favourite of the bunch happens to be "Octogonal Library," providing otherwordly tribal beats and spacey synths. Bongo beats with a twinge of acid aren't elements you'd first connect with techno, but it certainly works in N-O's favour. Just the right amount of psychedelic flavour from the label otherwise known for its minimal sensibilities.
"Octogonal Library" will be released as part of Organic Transmission, on vinyl on 17th October and digitally on 31st October. You can preorder the album via the Buy link.

Senate Finance Committee Chairman and Ranking Member Introduce Bill to Reduce Medicare Appeals Backlog
On Wednesday, December 9, United States Senate Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Ranking Member Ron Wyden (D-OR) introduced the Audit & Appeals Fairness, Integrity, and Reforms in Medicare (AFIRM) Act of 2015 (S. 2368), legislation designed to improve the Medicare audit and appeals process, and reduce the backlog of hearings and appeals.
The backlog of appeals is having an adverse effect on beneficiaries and providers. Under Medicare law a decision must be issued by a Medicare Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) within 90 days following the filing of an appeal by the Medicare beneficiary or provider. However, the appeal system is backlogged with nearly 900,000 appeals pending review before a handful of ALJs. With stepped up claims reviews in all provider sectors in Medicare, the number of appeals has increased exponentially. Despite efforts by the Office of Medicare Hearings and Appeals (OMHA) to expand the number of ALJs and achieve greater efficiencies in processing appeals, with 14,000 new appeals filed every week, a decision on any current ALJ appeal is over a year away.

Most of the time you can allow the computer to handle sail trim automatically while you focus only in steering a course through the water. However, as you advance there will be times and indeed entire races when you must understand how to manually trim the sails for the desired performance.
The physics of sailing Edit
thumb|500px|right|The Physics of Sailing You don't need to be a rocket scientist (or an aeronautical engineer) to sail a boat. It does help if you can add and subtract 30 and/or 45 to and from the true wind angle displayed on the digital instrument panel. TWA] has the same 0° to 360° range that you can see on any compass.
For those inquiring minds this video may help you appreciate the similarity between the soft cloth of a sail and the rigid wing of an aeroplane. In the later part of that video the concept of sail trim is introduced and this is useful to understand when you are playing VSK in Simulation mode because you must manually trim the sail(s) to generate the desired lift from the curvature of the sail.
In Arcade mode and and Tactical mode you can let the computer take care of sail trim and all you need worry about is steering a course through the water. Tactical mode also allows you to switch between automatic and manual sail trim whenever you wish.
Usually the desired lift is that which produces maximum forward velocity however there are times when an experienced skipper wants the boat to sail slower than this and there are even some uncommon circumstances when reverse motion is desirable. While VSK does not emphasize the sail handling aspect of the sport to the degree that you can, for example, back-fill the sail and quickly accelerate in reverse you may find your boat has spawned in the pre-start area pointed head to wind and therefore, knowing how to steer her to get onto a desired tack is a major time saver.
Optimum velocity made good Edit
The game's user interface (UI) provides a wind arrow in Arcade and Tactical modes of play and the color of that arrow is an indication of the lift being generated by the sail at any moment in time.
- A green arrow is maximum lift* which translates into maximum velocity made good (VMG).
- Yellow, orange, red are progressively worse cases of a luffing sail (which sailors will refer to as a de-powered sail) and so this means that you lose boat speed very rapidly.
- Light-green, light-blue, dark blue are progressively worse cases of an over-trimmed sail (which is equivalent to a stall in aircraft terms) and when this happens the sail is being pushed by the wind in much the same way that the square rig ships of by-gone years were pushed along by the trade winds. It is a sub-optimal use of the sail.
- * Is this the case or is green indicating optimum VMG?
When playing in Simulation mode those same ranges of color are made visible inside the triangular slider at the right of the screen. Each major division represents 10° of angular position of the sail relative to the center line of the boat. When you want maximum power form the sail (for maximum acceleration) you sheet in or sheet out to cause that indicator to glow green or maybe slightly yellow-green. Just remember that as you change course by a few degrees you must also adjust sail trim by a few degrees to preserve the same aerodynamic surface to the wind.
thumb|300px|right|Apparent wind explained Similarly as you gain boat speed the apparent wind shifts in the direction of travel (AWA in the instrument panel) and so to maintain the same aerodynamic lift from the sail you must trim the sail inboard by a small amount.
Trimming your boat for maximum power and maximum acceleration can be about :
- adjusting the position of the sail for maximum lift or
- adjusting the helm to alter the boat's course through the water or
- a combination of both
When sailing close-hauled you will typically trim the boat's heading to take advantage of any wind shifts that lift your course toward the upwind side of the destination mark. Helmsmen refer to this as feathering the boat.
When running downwind you may also prefer to feather the boat because usually you want to sail as deep as you can without losing to much boat speed and if there are waves (swell) then you may be steering in rhythm with the swell to maximize power/acceleration when on the rear surface of a wave and maximise speed/minimize distance to next mark when on the front surface of a wave.
- In both cases you choose to feather the boat because it is the quickest way to maintain trim. The boat is more responsive to small steering adjustments where as the sheets controlling the position of the sails are under a very high load and much more difficult to trim.
When sailing a broad reach or a beam reach point of sail you may choose to adjust the sail trim rather than the boat trim because generally you are steering a course for the shortest distance to next mark having adjusted for any tidal stream enroute.
Of course you won't always appreciate this in a cyber-sailing situation but the game engine does a pretty good job of making the preferred trim method quick and responsive while the alternate is slow and unresponsive.

Aluminum ladders are pretty preferred on the market location. There are amount of acknowledged reasons for its reputation. These come in numerous shapes and sizes. They could be no additional than a phase stool for around the home.
Then you possess 10 foot aluminum step ladder the step ladders that can come in handy for most from the jobs around your property and you also have the expansion ladders which can be raised to unique amounts. The value of these varies and is based on its performance.
A variety of the crucial known reasons for the reputation of the aluminum ladder are:
- Light fat aluminum is robust.
- It's lightweight.
- Its corrosion resistant
- Aluminum Ladders are economical
- They are resilient.
- They are flame resistant
- Aluminium also isn't suffering from moisture
- They will not really call for protective finish that needs periodic servicing.
There are unique kinds of ladders, this kind of as:
- Set Ladder: If its connected completely to a structure is termed a 'Set Ladder' – the framework can be a building or a gadget. Ordinarily that one particular (when the duration exceeds certain height) will be equipped with cages or rest methods or ladder landings for security.
- Expansion Ladder: These enable you to operate at much more than 1 height. These have at least two to three distinctive extensions. Lots of of them have a sliding mechanism at the extensions. They are quite versatile. The greatest advantage of this truly is that you can prolong them and modify the length according to the task you do.
- Phase Ladder: They are ideal for duties about your property. These are shorter and when opened they have a 'A-shaped' type. Stage Ladders could be basically folded for storage. The techniques of the are normally wider and therefore it is a great deal safer and comfy to use.
- Stage Platform Ladder: A whole lot of the step ladders function a platform at the prime. This platform is really helpful to rest equipment or other supplies. If it includes a procedure at the very top rated its known as a 'Method Step Ladder'.
- Telescopic Ladder: Each level of a telescopic ladder slides correct down to stack about the level beneath. These ones primarily collapse on itself and for that reason is pretty compact and transportable. For the reason that it collapses on itself this kind of as a telescope, it will get the identify 'telescopic ladder'. Most of these could be expanded to distinctive heights therefore making it quite versatile. They're quite handy for operate close to the property.
- Roof Ladder: That is generally an extension ladder with some additional safety created-in to enable you to do the job on roofing. A usual extension ladder may well lower unwanted fat towards a walls or maybe a tree and for that reason its ends could be squared off a bit. Alternatively these lengthen a couple of feet at evening roof. For more safety, these normally have hand grips or unique hooks on the most effective finishes.

Montenegro is fast becoming the Mediterranean's most exclusive playground. Montenegro is the tiny Balkan nation that gained independence from Serbia less than a decade ago and is nestled on the Adriatic Sea between Croatia, Serbia, and Albania. And you should know about it because it's feverishly recasting itself as a must-do luxury travel mecca.
Our base was Porto Montenegro, Tivat. When you get a few billionaires (LVMH Moel Hennessey Louse Vuitton's chairman Bernard Arnault and Canadian businessman Peter Munk just to name two) invested in making this the superyacht capital of the world (it's now beat out Monte Carlo) you end up with a mecca of shopping, dining, and international people.
Let me preface this collection of Montenegro best things to do by saying that I don't backpack, but I am a girl who enjoys luxe things on a budget. Because so many of the tourists come via yachts there still is some need for hotel growth and you can find a deal but accommodation would be a bit on the higher end for the Balkans. That said the value is found in your dining and entertainment.
If you don't care about a pool or beach access a good value is Hotel Pine. Its location was perfect – right on the boardwalk in the heart of Tivat. The little Juliette balcony view of the port was stunning – that is if you like sunset, palm trees, and yachts. We didn't stay at Hotel Regent, but it's worth mentioning because it's "the" hotel in Tivat and a good landmark. It was too pricey for us, but it's top notch.
We started our trip a Hotel Pine, but for a more quaint experience the majority of our stay was at the Eco Hotel Carruba. It's a 20 min walk from the town centre, or a 3 euro cab ride. Or if you drive there's a parking lot right behind Hotel Regent and Hotel Pine that is €2 all evening. Eco Hotel Carruba has a private little beach and the service was fantastic. However, my caution is (except for breakfast) to order in advance – they make everything from scratch and that process can be a bit slow. But you're on holiday, so slow and chill works! So what's the eco part? Nestled in a 19th century building, the hotel was refurbished and fitted with advanced 'green' technologies, modern water treatment system, and geothermal heating. Morning coffee on our little terrace quickly became a holiday ritual. Oh, and across the alley way we tripped into a weekly tournament of something like bocci ball and was a big draw for locals. Best free entertainment of the trip!
Al Posto Giusto is steps away from the Hotel Regent. Inside is a cozy stone décor and a wood fired oven ensures the best thin-crust pizza this side of Napoli. But it's the waterfront terrace that's the hot spot on any evening. This catwalk-like terrace was our favorite nightcap spot.
One Restaurant & Bar is around the corner from Al Posto is another must do restaurant. You can definitely get a good meal here – but this spot was notable to us for best deserts and martinis. Oh and the adult slushee drinks! Trust me, when it's sweltering hot you want a place that can make frozen wonders out of any martini. It's also sisters with next door Crush Wine Station. Other restaurants we really enjoyed were Mitsu (sushi) and Prova (Italian and local).
Repeat after me…it's pretty much mandatory to be in Tivat and do a decadent cabana poolside day at the Port Montenegro Yacht Club's Lido Pool. It's €40 for a day pass to the cabanas and infinity pool over the sea, but worth the glam experience for at least one day. You have to be a member of the yacht club to dine at the restaurant, but after 10pm anyone can do cocktails at their lounge. And in high season after midnight the nightclub on the ground floor opens.
MI kept on being told the "best restaurant in all of Montenegro" is Konoba Catovica Mlini. So I did some research and yes it really is. Best service, best meal, best experience. It's about 40 minutes from Kotor or from Tivat in a small town called Morinj. The latter was our route, and included a short, easy ferry ride (€4.50) and I recommend because it added to our adventure. Off the ferry it's just a short 10 min drive. I've also had friends that hired a boat to go across.
The restaurant is an old saw mill (over 200 years old actually) and once you enter the bamboo walkway you've escaped into an oasis of charming bridges, foliage, and ducks. And of course there's the food which is the freshest, locally grown, just caught or picked, and prepared according to the authentic local recipes.
Besides Morinj and Kotor our biggest excursion was going to Budva for the weekend. Budva is only 30 minutes away from Tivat and could easily have done this as a day trip, but we wanted to stay a few days. It's the buzziest place on the coast so if you're in the mood to party, this is the place to be. But after a weekend we were so happy to go back to Tivat!
The two Budva hotels I'd recommend are both in Old Town (Stari Grad). Astoria Hotel or Avala Resort & Villas. They're both luxe and good value for what you get – including access to a private beach. We opted for Avala due to better pricing and we were able to get a seaside view terrace. It's also got two pools in it when you're needing a salty sea break.
The Old Town cluster of markets, restaurants, and night clubs make you feel like you're in a carnival. But in that hub is Jadran Kod Krysta, a must do restaurant spot. If you're not too put off by the motorcycle paraphernalia you'll get the best value on great seafood and the biggest goblet of good local wine, Vranac, for only €1. I recommend the mussels and the grilled calamari!
When you're ready to get out of the market area Konoba Stari Grad. It's attractive stone-walled terrace is sandwiched between the Stari Grad's walls and beach. It's also along this area and wrapped around to the marina where you'll find outdoor little bars. During high season also scoot to the luxury Hotel Splendid for a martini. It's the only five-star in Budva and where you're most likely to catch a celeb (we were told Anjelina and Brad likey, likey).
When you're ready to turn it up a notch with bottle service and DJs your answer is Top Hill. Top Hill overlooks the city of Budva and the Adriatic sea, and is one of the most beautiful open air seaside nightclubs in this part of Europe. Tip: Only open during July and August.
All within about 15-20 minutes east of Budva are the pink sandy beaches of Sveti Stefan, Milocer Beach and Queen's Beach. At Sveti Stefan is Villa Milocer which was built between 1934 and 1936 and was the summer residence of Queen Marija Karadordevic. And in the 50's and 60's this was a secret getaway for Elizabeth Taylor, Sofia Loren, and Orsen Welles. You can't go onto the Villa Milocer unless you're a guest of the Aman resort, but that won't stop you from enjoying the beaches, olive trees, or just watching the speedboats jet around.
I've got one more little travel gem for you. Rental cars – we booked the best deal through Economy Car Rentals; the actually booking was at Enterprise Montenegro. There are so many day trip options within close driving distance to our base in Tivat and all our hotels offered free parking so we wanted a car, but didn't need one the whole trip. We picked up the car at the airport (15 min outside of town) and for no extra charge we arranged for one of their staff to come to us in Tivat to grab the car for the return earlier than our departure. We also got the GPS and insurance all included. Service over and above.
Montenegro high season is July and August – -so that gives you a few months to get saving and planning for your Mediterranean escape!

Str0be posted a topic in Grain Spawn PreparationStr0be's NO FAIL WBS TEK V2.0 INTRO I have not been on here in a while and as I was going over different tek's that I have contributed, I realized that this was outdated. Makes me feel like an Ass because TBH, I haven't prepped my WBS like this since maybe 2012. I have been doing a much much easier way with comparable results. Doing it this way I am about to go over with you, you will not only save time by 50-75% compared to the old way, but you will have equally good results. I have yet to have any jars or bags fail this way! This tek will teach you how to prep your WBS, not help you pick our jars, bags or lids. We use bags, but this WBS prep tek will work for whatever you use! REQUIREMENTS / MATERIAL LIST - Wild Bird Seed - Any brand of WBS will work, Pennington Classic is the cleanest with the least waste. - Two 5 Gallon Buckets - 3/16 Drill Bit & Drill - Distilled Water - Jars or Bags - Impulse Sealer / Vacuum Sealer ** BAGS ONLY ** PROCEDURE 1. First off take a 5 gallon bucket, flip it upside down and drill as many holes on the bottom as you can. Be sure to clean out / rip / pull any loose plastic pieces from drilling. 2. Put your "Sifting Bucket" inside of the untouched bucket and pour seed 1/4 - 1/2 of the "Sifting Bucket" 3. With a twisting & shaking motion, sift through all the seed. You will be left with the Millet and other small seeds in the big bucket, and any sunflower seeds / corn will get trapped up top. Throw away all the crappy sunflower seeds and corn. You will be left with high quality seeds that you can work with! 4. Next your going to add the WBS to your Jars or Bags. I do this: Jars - 2 Cups of WBS per jar Large Bags - 2 quart jars per bag (Filled and leveled off at the very top) 5. Simply add your distilled water. The recipe is just like rice, but opposite. Always add 1/2 as much water as you do seed. **USE THE SAME MEASURING DEVICE FOR SEED AS WATER. EXAMPLE 2 CUPS SEED = 1 CUP WATER.** Jars - 1 Cup Water per Jar Large Bags - 1 quart jar Water per bag ( filled and leveled at very top of jar ) 6. If using jars, give the seeds a good mix with a knife to evenly distribute the water. For bags, just massage the seeds around. 7. Put lids of choice on jars, tighten, then 1/4 turn loose and your good to go. For bags, 0.5 micron bags to be exact, we seal the bag and cook. 8. Cooking Times : Jars 90min @ 15psi & Bags 120min @ 15psi. 9. **VERY IMPORTANT STEP** - As soon as the PC hits 0 and the weight drops, take your bags / jars out and shake the shit out of them. You must evenly distribute the moisture ASAP to ensure the tek works. 10. Next you need to wait 2 days until you can innoculate. **DURING THIS TIME YOU MUST SHAKE THE BAGS 2-3 TIMES A DAY TO DISTRIBUTE MOISTURE** That is all for this tek. I hope that it brings the community as much success as it has for me. I prefer this tek to the old NO FAIL WBS Tek due to its simplicity. Saves time with equal results. Why not?
scubastevv posted a topic in Getting Started Growing MushroomsI'm preparing my first grow and was considering using organic rye berries. I've heard a lot about WBS, but not that much about rye berries. Does anyone have experience with both?
vapedad420 posted a question in ContaminationHey guys! This will be my second attempt at a monotub. My first attempt was very successful resulting in 3 flushes with almost a pound dry in total! This time around I nocked 9 single quart jars of wild bird seed/verm with Cambodian spores (the same as last time) I was very sterile using gloves and plenty of iso and I pressure cooked my jars before nocking them. After innoculation I let them sit for a week before lookin at them. They appeared to have a bit more moisture a in the jars than I remembered from the first go around. I let them sit for another week and Then I ended up moving 2100 miles away and drove across country. As a result the jars were subject to a varrying degree of temperatures. They're looking a little funky and I'd appreciate any input as to how they look. I also have a liquid culture subjected to the exact same conditions as the previously mentioned WBS jars. Once again any advice is much appreciated!!!
kitchenkhemist posted a topic in Getting Started Growing MushroomsBeing Im loving in the UK currently materials have been very hard to get . the saying " everything in America is bigger" is truly more than just a saying, including variety options. So far Ive had to import a new PC, Quart size mason jars all because they dont sell them in the size or quantity here. Im adapting very well ( no grape jelly, maple syrup toilet/closet flange) other than the fact I dont like ordering as much as I have off line but I dont have other options. So now its been time to find bird seed, ive heard to keep away from cracked corn (maize), and look for a wbs grain that has mostly milo and millet. Most people from the states can just walmart the two main brains but i hAve visited all the pet stroes here and cant find a grain without cracked corn. To ship from the US such large pound bag would be ridiculous so my questions is any UK SOURCES? can i create the WBS from scratch getting the material separate, and if so whats grains should i buy at what quantity? or is there any other grain system i can use for the rez tek if im planning to use coarse verm? if no other options ill go this route below but it will be more expensive, being i dont have a store dedicated to birds i still want to be cost efficient. thank you for your help
mescawin posted a question in ContaminationHello. So long time lurker here. I'm finally in a place where I can get started with growing. I used wbs and I'm pretty sure I left it far too wet when putting it in the jars, pressure cooking, waiting, and noccing. Being that I live at 6k above sea level, my 15 psi cooker doesn't even hit high enough temps for proper sterilization, does it? Can I compensate by increasing the amount of time? Anyways, these got 2 hours. It seems my b+ might be running the course in one jar, and the second jar looks maybe contaminated, but hard to tell at this stage, 2 weeks in. I'm incubating at about 70, but above my fridge, so likely it is a tad hotter. My crappy digital thermometer/ hygrometer is at my mums and I'll have to pick it up soon, I know. Planning on a 6 quart dub tub if all goes well. Also, my jars fell over and the fine vermiculite layer on the bottom spilled a bit everywhere. Honestly, I thought this spore syringe was likely contaminated long ago. I've had it nigh on a year.

vapedad420 posted a topic in Getting Started Growing MushroomsHey there everyone! While I have been an avid reader of Shroomology for several years now, I have never actually made a post. Thus if I'm breaking any rules or am posting this is the wrong place, please feel free to let me know, as I plan to post on here much more often. Anyways, While I have never actually grown my own mushrooms, I have been around several grows before and am familiar the process. However I am about to start my very own grow for the first time and had a question. I have already created several quarts of WBS/Verm spawn jars and PC'd them accordingly. I plan on inoculating them in the next day or two; as soon as my spores arrive in the mail. How long after I inoculate them can I spawn them to my bulk substrate? I looked around before posting and couldn't find a concise answer. Some posts simply said 10 days, others said once the Mycelium has fully colonized or consolidated and some said 5 days after it has fully colonized/consolidated. Also, how can I tell for sure that the Mycelium has 100% colonized? Additionally, I'm currently planning on growing Cambodians.
DallasShawn posted a topic in Getting Started Growing MushroomsFor about 2 weeks my jars have looked like the picture I attached. I think they were inoculated like 4 weeks ago. I have them in a cardboard box at normal or avg temp is 78. Is there anything wrong?

From the album GOIN HARD!Just shot 25 of these guys up. The others on the top left are my isolation's.
mushy-madness posted a topic in Mushroom Cultivation ArchivesAll right, so about two weeks ago I made some new jars (since then Ive changed my lid tek to avoid contamination) and I havent done anything with them yet. I figured I would make the jars ahead of time before I would need them. In the mean time check out what happened with this jar. Sorry if its upside down. All I did with these jars was PC for an hour and a half at 15 PSI. These were brand new jars and I have fresh myc growing. I DID NOT SHOOT THIS JAR UP. What could be growing?

Austiclees posted a topic in Grain Spawn PreparationOkay, so I got really bored and creative this weekend and decided to build this and wanted to share it with you all. This is definitely nothing new or ground breaking, but I think I just improved upon the original way a hair. The Problem: Wild bird seed is very dirty. There's no way around it. It's grown outdoors, harvested with machines and treated and processed in factories. There's no need in sanitizing it since it's meant for wild birds and not human consumption. The Resolution: Washing it. Plain and simple; if something is dirty and you want it clean, you wash it. There are plenty tek's out there for this purpose and they're all great. This is just my way of doing it. Estimated time: Labor = Ten minutes Waiting = Twenty four hours Required Tools: Drill 3/4" Drill bit Plastic mixing tool of some sort- I used a plastic spoon Something to mix on, I used a plastic jar lid Materials needed, (and the cost at which I purchased them for): 5-Gallon bucket, $2.60 3/4" X 2" PVC SCHDL 80 Nipple Riser, $0.47 Loctite Plastic Epoxy, $5.47 Zinc Hose Y w/shutoff, $4.97 12 pack Yuengling, $8.69 (Optional) The Construction: I start out by drilling out a 3/4" hole about 2 inches from the bottom of the bucket. You want to make sure there is just enough room for the Hose Y to spin on the inside without getting stopped by the bottom of the bucket. Then, screw in the nipple riser until you can no longer see the threads. Grab the Hose Y and screw it all the way onto the nipple riser inside of the bucket. Now it's time to start mixing that epoxy I recommend mixing it for about 60 seconds. This stuff sets up slower than traditional epoxy and if you try to apply it too quickly after mixing it, you'll have a runny mess like I did. After you feel it start thicken up a little, go ahead and slop it on the inside and out of the bucket around the nipple riser. BTW, as an after though, i decided to add some bathroom caulk around this area as well to plug up any spots I missed and prevent leaks. (Optional) Drink your Yuengling while cleaning up the mess you just made. Allow the epoxy to cure for 24 hours prior to use. How to use: I grabbed a window screen and propped it up on a couple of bins and placed the contraption we just built on top of the screen. You'll see why momentarily. Screw your water hose on the outside of the bucket and turn it on. Look inside to ensure both shut off valves are open. Slowly pour your WBS into the bucket after it fills up with water. This will make it much easier to get rid of all those pesky sun flower seeds as they'll just stay afloat and not sink back down to the bottom of the bucket. This is why the window screen comes in handy; it's a lot easier to clean up your mess afterwards. Took me about 3 minutes total to drop a 20 pound bag of seed into the bucket. See how dirty the water is? Allow the water to run for about 5 minutes, then reach your arm in there and give it a good stir. repeat a few times until.. ..you see the water nice and clear as such. Take the bucket off the screen and clean up your mess. Conclusion: Now, from here you can use a variety of other teks out there. You can let your seed to sit in this very same bucket and hydrate for 24 hours by just reaching your arm in the seed and closing the shut off valves. You can toss the floating trash from the screen, then use that very same screen to toss your WBS on to get it out of the water and start a simmer tek. It's really all up to you. I hope you found this guide useful. Feel free ask me anything if I didn't make it clear enough and as always, happy harvesting!

Str0be posted a topic in Grain Spawn PreparationStr0be's NO FAIL WBS Tek PLEASE FIND STR0BE'S UPDATED NO FAIL WBS TEK V2 HERE (CLICK) This is my Wild Bird Seed (WBS) Tek that I have been using now for quite some time with 100% sucess. I like to use WBS because it is the cheapest and mort efficient spawn to use, and because I cannot find Rye grains locally. Before using this method contamination was a huge problem for me. I tried 4 or 5 different WBS preps / teks and kept having contamination problems. I have had no contamination at all since I switched to this method. I have added my own variations / secrets which have given me improved success as well. . If you follow along step by step, you should lessen, if not completely iliminate any contamination problems you are having THINGS YOU WILL NEED - Pressure Cooker - 5 Gallon Bucket with Sealing Lid - Wild Bird Seed - Large pot for boiling Water - Screen - Vermiculite - 1/3 Measuring Cup - Quart Sized Mason Jars - Hammer and 1/4" Diameter Nail OR 1/4" Drill and Bit - Post office Tyvek Envelopes - Aluminum Foil INFO ON WILD BIRD SEED Any brand of Wild Bird seed will work so long as it does not contain any fungicides. When looking at the back ingredients, Potassium Iodide is a normal additive and is not considered a fungicide. When looking for a type of WBS to buy, I look for one that is mostly Milo and Millet, and has not as much or very little Sunflower seeds. Two brands that are good are Pennington's Classic, and Walmart's Economy Wild Bird Feed Mix. - INSTRUCTIONS 1. The first thing I always do is get my pot of water boiling. Your going to need about 1 - 2 gallons of water (enough to fill the bucket 1/3 the way). So get that into a pot and get it boiling on the stove ASAP. HINT: I usually throw on a lid on the pot just to make it boil faster. 2. The next thing that I always am thinking is how many jars I want to be making at a time. My pressure cooker is a 16 Quart, and can only do 7 Jars at a time. Sometimes I will do less than 7 jars if other things need to be put in their place. You might have a better pressure cooker that can hold 10 jars, so I will include the measurements for all. 2 Full Quarts of dry WBS = 5 Quarts Finished WBS 3 Full Quarts of dry WBS = 7 Quarts Finished WBS 4 Full Quarts of dry WBS = 10 Quarts Finished WBS 3. I measure out the amount of dry WBS that will be needed and pour it all into the 5 gallon bucket. HINT: Add an extra 1/3 of a jar to the bucket to buffer for the sunflower seeds being removed. HINT: You want to make sure that the bucket you are using has a good sealing lid. The orange Homer Buckets from Home Depot are perfect. They are $3 each and have a rubber ring in the lid to hold a perfect seal. 4. The next step will be to get rid of as many sunflower seeds as we can. The sunflower seeds can be over hydrated, and cause bacterial growth, which will mess up your jars. We do this by filling the bucket about half way with water. All the sunflower seeds will float to the surface, and you simply scoop them out and throw them away. Remember to run your hands through the WBS in the bottom to get any sunflower seeds that are stuck down below. This step does not have to be perfect, nor does every single sunflower seed have to be removed; just try to get most of them. 5. Now we need to get rid of the water, or at least most of it, from the bucket. I usually put the window screen over the top of the bucket, and pour as much water out as I can. 6. By this time, the pot of water is usually done boiling. It doesn't have to be a rapid boil, and you don't need to time it, just as soon as you see the boiling bubbles appear; it is ready to be used. 6a. You want to pour the boiling water into the bucket so that there is twice as much water as WBS. HINT: I usually stick my finger into the WBS to see the depth, then find a mark on the bucket that equals twice that depth. 6b. Once you pour the water into the bucket, quickly apply the lid, and make sure that it is secure to create a perfect seal. It is normal to have the lid bubble up. In fact, this is a key part of this step. 6c. Put your timer on 45 - 90 Minutes. 90 Minutes is preferable. 7. In the meantime, we will be prepping the Lids to the jars. If you already have your own lids from previous jars or teks, then by all means, use those. There is no right or wrong kind of lids to use as long as they allow gas exchange and you know they work. I am including instructions for the ones that work for me. 7a. Flip your lid so that they are rubber side up, and use your hammer and nail, or drill and bit to make a hole in the center. You want the hole to be about 1/4 inch. 7b. Get out your tyvek envelope and trace around the edge of the lid. Use sciscors or razor blade to cut out the discs. - 8. Next get out your measuring cup, and put 1/3 cup of Vermiculite into each of your jars. - - 9. By now the 45 minute timer has probably gone off. Its time to clean and air dry your WBS. 9a. Place the screen over your sink, or even over a large storage bin, and pour out all the WBS onto the screen. Give it a good rinse to clean off all the WBS. 9b. Spread it all out over the screen, and allow it to air dry for 20 minutes. 10. After 20 minutes of drying has gone by, your WBS is ready to be loaded into the jars. It is most likely still quite wet, but this is ok. The Vermiculite in the bottom of the jars is there to absorb the excess water. Fill each jar about 2/3 of the way up. - HINT: You can use the Ball or Kerr symbols as reference points for a good depth. Fill the WBS to about the middle of that writing. 11. Now clean the inside neck / rim of the jar with a paper towel. 12. Next it is time to put the lids on the jar. 12a. Start by puttin the lid on rubber side up. 12b. Then we want to put on our tyvek disk that we cut out earlier and add the band. HINT: Put the Tyvek disk on the band first, and then screw the band on. I find it makes a better fit for the tyvek, and usually does not create bubbles. 12c. Tighten it down. 13. Next put a square of Aluminum foil to prevent any extra moister from getting in, and loosen the lids 1/4 turn. 14. Load jars into your pressure cooker, and pressure cook @ 15 PSI for 90 minutes. 15. Once the time is up, remove the pressure cooker from the heat. Wait until the pressure reaches 0 and the lock drops and continue on to step 16. 16. Once the pressure cooker is fully cooled its time to open it up to tighten the lids. 16a. Wearing a pair of winter gloves, an oven mit or a rag, remove each jar and tighten the lid down tight. 16b. You want to shake each jar to distribute the water and loosen up the WBS without disturbing the vermiculite at the bottom. I find it best to hold the jar at an angle with one hand, and hit the top with the other. If done correctly only the WBS should move, and the vermiculite should stay in place. HINT: Sometimes WBS gets between the metal lid and the tyvek, which is really annoying to me. Then you can mess up your tyvek and or your jars when trying to fix it. Stop this from happening ahead of time by keeping a finger over the 1/4" hole while shaking. 16c. Allow the jars to cool. This usually takes about 7 - 10 hours. It is easiest if you allow the jars to cool overnight. 17. Give the jars one last shake before inoculation. Do the same shake as before to distribute the water and loosen the WBS, but without disturbing the vermiculite in the bottom. INOCULATION Next its time to inoculate your jars. It is best to do this inside a glovebox, such as my High Quality Glovebox. By following the steps below, you can have fully colonized jars in as little as 7 - 14 days. 1. As stated in step 17 above, you want to give the jars one last shake before inoculating. 2. Wipe off the tyvek lid of the jar with isopropyl rubbing alcohol. 3. Flame sterilize and or rub needle tip with isopropyl rubbing alcohol before inserting syringe into center of tyvek / center of jar lid. 4. Point the needle at an angle so it is pointing at the glass, and shoot in 4CC MAX of your favorite Spore or LC Syringe, while slowly rotating the jar so that you get 360 degree even distribution of your inoculant. 5. Place a piece of micropore tape over the needle hole on the tyvek lid, and label your jars. 6. Put the jars into your Incubation Chamber, and you should have quality spawn ready for use in as little as 7 - 14 days! - -

BEYOND2 posted a topic in Grain Spawn PreparationTHINGS YOU NEED -JAR LIDS ANY SIZE WILL WORK -SCREW DRIVER OR NAIL -HAMMER -TYVEK(there free at your local post office) -RTV HIGH TEMP SILICONE -RAZOR KNIFE -PEN OR A PENCIL(OPTIONAL) -MAKING THE HOLES grab your hammer, screw driver(or nail), and jar with the lid on........ also make sure your center.... like so then make the holes and dont pound on the lids like you would nailing somthing to the wall youll break the jar.......it dont take that much stregnth to puncture the lids -MAKING THE TYVEK now grab the razor, the lid, and pen or pencil(optional)you can trace the lid with the pencil thn cut it out or you can just cut around the lid watever you thinks easier check it out thn grab the RTV SILICONE take the cut out of the tyvek and dab some silicone on..... again make sure your center like this NOTE: watever side you punctured will leave a bur like this now that side needs to be faced down like this NOT LIKE THIS it doesnt matter if you punctured the top or the bottom of the lids either....... they work both ways the reason why the burr needs to be facing down is because the tyvek will be sticking up and wont seal as well and will also allow for a higher rate of contamination in my experience so i always do it this way, now put the lids on first then the tyvek and seal that bitch LET IT DRY 24 HOURS BEFORE USE YOU CAN ALSO REUSE THEESE MULTIPLE TIMES IVE DONE IT................. AND YOUR DONE AS SIMPLE AS THAT -HERES THE END RESULTS

Flawedprophecy posted a topic in Grain Spawn PreparationWBS Prep: My WBS prep is pretty much the same as everyone else's, minus a few things that I do. I get the desired amount of WBS, I usually use the kind with cracked corn, and get a pot of BOILING water. Throw in WBS and stir that bitch or else it will stick to the bottom and smoke up you're house for about 5 minutes. Then turn off heat and let sit for 30, take of hot burner and place on the other cool one. Remember to stir about every five minutes to make sure they are evenly distributed. NEXT, begin rinsing them with COLD water until the water is clear. When that has been achived (cracked corn will make it really foggy and kinda soupish, don't worry because it will go clear eventually) put in a colinder and strain for 5 minutes. Kinda lift it up and hold it in you're hands and let it fall and stop it kinda fast and extra water will come out. There is no need for the way I do it for it not to clump or stick to stuck you put in it. That reason is because - next you add 1/3 part of DRY verm and mix it up well. You want it to be moist, but not so moist that when in a bowl you are mixing all this up there is water on the bottom. If that happens add SMALL amounts of verm until there is no standing water or pooling in the bottom. After you add the verm it might look moist but after this next part you will see what happens. Before that though load WBS/verm mix into empty jars as is and then do the whole Tyvek/rtv thing. Lids are up to you. Now, they are ready to be steamed. WBS Jar Steaming: Ok, this is no hard at all, if you can boil an egg you can do this. LOL Really, everyone has always said you need a PC to do grains and steam sterilizing wasn't possible. I disagree. For 2 years now I have maintained a 90%-95% success rate. I have lost one jar to bac in the last three months. And the 10 pints I will picture I had 100% success with. I even gave them SEVEN days before I nocced them to give myself extra fail potential. They were also done by my WBS prep method described above. Alright, here it is, and it is simply. First, you need a large pot with a lid, without the lid it will probably fail. I have super sealed it with 8 layers of tin foil before though and it works better because it keeps more of the heat/steam in. How to put you're jars in can be done a couple ways, but they CAN NOT touch the bottom of the pot. I used a canning pot that has a rack about an inch up from the bottom. Before I got that I used just a regular pot and then space jar rings place in the bottom of the pan as if they were on a jar. Fill up pot with warm water until it is 1/3 up the jars, there should be a fair amount of water in the pot. Turn heat to medium-high for first 15 minutes then crank that bitch up to high. Let this go for 2 and half hours but 3 is recommended. You will need to check on the water and make sre you refill it back to 1/3 the way up the jar after halfway through, maybe before if you got a nice stove. At the end of the time simply turn off heat. Let them set in the pot for 12-16 hours. Why do I do this? Remember up at the prep I didn't soak? Eh, eh? Well you don't need to soak. instead of soaking you go straight to heat, then the 12-16 hours acts as the soak in between but all you have to do is turn off the heat then turn it back on. Anyway, after this 12-16 hours repeat heating for 2.5 to 3 hours. Let set until room temp. If you want to be careful then you can wait a week before noccing, contam should show up by then so you don't waste spores.

Mush Zombie posted a topic in Grain Spawn PreparationThere are many ways to do this. This is my way. If you cant do it exactly the way I do it, just make it happen! Things you will need: [*]5gal bucket [*]Wild Bird Seed [*]Gypsum [*]Screen [*]Quart mason jars [*]Pressure cooker HOW TO: First we start with the Wild Bird Seed (WBS) Good bird seeds for this tek are ones that are cheap, have no fungicides. I get mine from wal mart, and reccomend wither the Economy mix, or Pennington Clasic. The economy mix is mostly Milo (AWESOME!) and is cheaper than the name brand by a couple bucks. Pour however much you need into the 5 gal bucket. 1 quart of dry WBS will generaly make about 2 quarts of WBS when soaked and PCed. First thing we want to do is get all the sunflower seed (or 95% of it) out of the good stuff. The sunflower seed can screw your jars up later on, and cause bacterial contam by being overly hydrated. So we do this by taking the bucket outside (or in the bathtub) and filling it up with a hose until it begins to overflow. The sunflower seeds will float and rise to the top then spill over onto the ground. Make sure you reach in there with a spoon, stick, or your hand and stir up any sunflower seeds that are trapped under the rest of the seed, to make sure most of the sunflower seed rise to the top and are pushed out. Let the bird seed soak for 18-24 hours. We do this because heat resistant bacterial endospores lie dormant in the grains. The soak is not to hydrate the bird seed so much, as it is to penetrate the hulls and germinate the dormant bacteria, so that we effectively kill them in the PC. While the bird seed is soaking you will need to construct your lids, and your filter disks. I suggest folowing this tek, its easy and the filter disks are free: easy tyvek lids. Once the soak is complete, dump the seed into a strainer, and rinse it very well (temp doesnt matter) until the water coming out of it is clear. This takes about 1 minute. Once the seed is rinsed well, lay it out on something to dry. A screen, a towel with a fan on it, whatever it takes to get it to dry. The bird seed will be ready when there is very little to no moisture on the surface of the grains. You can grab a handful and dump it, and only a little will stick to your hand. Once this is accomplished, load your bird seed into qt jars, to about the 3 cup line, install the lids, and ring, but only screw the ring down so that it jiggles a little. DO NOT tighten the ring down all the way. Load your dried bird seed into jars to the 3 cup line. Install your lids that you made here: easy tyvek lids Once you have done that screw the ring down Load your jars up into the PC and PC for 90 min @ 15 PSI. This means you set the timer for 90 min when the rocker begins to rock, not when you turn the stove on. You are now done. Let them sit in the PC overnight, and cool off, then shake them up before you inoculate. Enjoy!

HistoryOcsh was a sentient spaceship encountered by Darkhawk. At one time he had been an alien humanoid scientist who had labored in the discovery of other dimensions. He was supposedly the one who discovered the dimension known as Null Space. He was part of Dargin Bokk's project to create a series of Darkhawk armors. When the scientists revolted against Bokk and took control of the armors Mandeja was killed by Bokk and Bokk later used her armor to blow a hole in their space ship. Bokk's host body was destroyed as were many of his cronies and he was stuck in the Evilhawk armor. Ocsh was trying to make repairs to his Darkhawk armor when he was caught in an explosion switching between his normal self and his Darkhawk body. As a result Osch's mind merged with the ship. The Darkhawk armors and their hosts were stored on Ocsh's ship in Null Space. Ocsh came to see himself as the caretaker for the Darkhawk armors as the Darkhawks and hosts were stored on his ship after they swapped places. After Portal killed Kistur, Kistur's body was stored on Ocsh's ship while the Mahari Brothers brought the Darkhawk body minus the amulet with them to every star system they went to. Two bodies were stored in Ocsh's ship that at that time did not belong to hosts, the Mahari Brothers merged Kistur's corpse with these 2 armors to create Overhawk. After Evilhawk's defeat his psyche was stuck on Ocsh's ship and he tried to recreate his Evilhawk body until he was defeated by Ocsh and Darkhawk but Ocsh did not survive. From this point on Ned Dobbs operated Ocsh's ship.
The Darkhawk bodies and their hosts swapped places in Darkhawk perches on Ocsh's ship. When a host became a Darkhawk their original body would be stored in a perch and when they swapped back the Darkhawk body would be stored in the perch.
Ocsh once sent Darkhawk on a mission to gather together the six Darkhawk amulets. Ocsh originally pretended that his amulet was among the missing but later revealed that his amulet had been in the hull of the ship ever since he merged with the ship.

Pheasant Baked in A Blanket
Recipe by Aroostook
Found this by request on a hunting site. If pressed for time, I think one could easily substitute a frozen pie crust dough and a can of chicken gravy in this dish.
Top Review by kstrating
First rate! My husband & sons, who won't quit bringing pheasants home, thought this was teriffic! I deboned the pheasants, & simply added the pieces with portions of the vegetables to serving size divisions of the dough. I desperately need to remember to use lard for the 'blanket' next time though... makes a flakier crust. Great change from the ol' mushroom soup recipes for pheasant! Will be making this again.

- 1 (2 lb) dressed pheasants
Vegetable Stuffing
- 3⁄4 cup finely chopped onion
- 3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine
- 3⁄4 cup coarsely grated carrot
- 3⁄4 cup finely diced celery
