...slip a piece of chocolate INSIDE the marshmallow before roasting it and skip the graham if you want -- we call it marshmallow surprise...quote]

My DH can't eat wheat. That's how we make do so he can sort'a have s'mores. Humph! I thought it was my own idea.

Lisa, frosting is the DEVIL. Nothing should have 140 calories for a tablespoon or whatever... but those frozen cookie things sure sound good... lol

I thought it was ku man too.... eesh.

It's said like coo-men. So the real question is, if DH ever tells you he's "coo men" - wtf do you do?

I can't stand marshmallows - raw, cooked or otherwise. And I'm not big on chocolate unless it's paired with Peanut Butter. Probably no surprise I've never had a smore. :(

If you put a peep in the microwave, you'll get like a six foot peep.

cumin is more or less pronounced as come in, but stressed on the first syllable. Pronunciation: KUH-min, some easterners have been known to pronounce it at KOO-min

The pronunciation for cumin that’s most prevalent in this country, and the one recognized by the American Spice Trade Association, is "kuhmin," not "kewmin" as is sometimes heard.

How crazy is this - I'm just nerdy enough to look it up on the dictionary and both pronunciations are right. I wonder if it's a north/south thing.

maybe a pohtaytoe pahtaytoe thing. Wasn't there a link thread for a "how southern are you?" for a web quiz? That had all different types of pronunciations. I have heard both cumins too, but I was nerdy too and went to the American Spice Trade Association for what they recognize it as. Who knew there was that association anyways?

There is a thread on here that just greeted me this morning and made me fume. It wasn't caused just by the person who posted the vicious attack but by the moderator who allowed the post to remain there and not delete it. Just locking it is not a sufficient remedy. A thread that so blatantly attacks a person as the "I'm Guilty" thread should have been deleted.

I personally am very proud to call PhotoNut my friend. She has been a great encouragement to me along with a lot of other people on here. She has always been here for me, and it hurt to see her attacked in what I considered a vile way by someone I have no respect for after reading this.

How low is this thing going to sink? You know Alexandra, the thread should have been deleted. You are allowing Susan to read this and not be able to respond. You know it will hurt her horribly. What if someone posted something cruel to a moderator...would you let it stand. Now if Susan trys to defend herself in another thread you will get on her case and lock it.

Alexandra, a good moderator would delete the "I'm Guilty" thread immediately and not just lock it. I would like to hear others opinions on this, or am I going to find this thread locked to responses to?

I'm furious with this person who attacked PhotoNut. She should be ashamed of herself.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
