When I took German in high school, the teacher had a little placard on the bulletin board that read "Alle guten Dinge im Leben sind illegalisch, unmoralisch oder machen sie dich!" which translates to "All good things in life are illegal, immoral or fattening". To that I would have to add that moderation in all things is definitely advisable.

I will take green beans with bacon over the green bean casserole any time. Green bean casserole is good but one of those things I just don't miss if it isn't there. Side meat is good with many other vegetables as well. But then I grew up on southern style cooking. | ||

Sooooo,
Does that mean if I only eat healthy salad and continue to enjoy my Marlboro Red 100s and double Stolichnaya martinis that it will even out and I'll be just as healthy?? Lmao😂
It's true though that France has one of the highest smoking rates in the world too but they also very long life expectancies, some say it's because of all the red wine, some say it's because they are more active. Has anyone seen that commercial that states "sitting is the new smoking"? They say an obese person who doesn't smoke is still much less healthy than a smoker of normal weight. I definitely agree about the fake butter too, it's disgusting! And it's a very artificial yellow colour that doesn't even look real. Real butter is 100% natural, whereas margarine is made from hundreds of artificial food preservatives and additives, several of which were used to fatten up livestock during WWII. Even though margarine "may" have less fat, it's still much worse for you. The fewer artificial substances we put in our bodies the better, there is something to be said for eating an organic diet, it also tastes better most of the time for sure. | ||

I'm usually very careful about what I put in my body
(snickeing, I hear?????)
I'd much rather eat butter and sugar than processed stuff. I've NEVER smoked, OR tasted alcohol. Who knows? I might get killed by the ice cream truck!... Imagine: John Long succumbs ...death by motor vehicle, while music played in the background,, and a Nutty Buddy dripping down his face. His vacuums will be available soon. Details to follow.. I have NO intention. lol | ||

You're actually the picture
of health. My bp has been up and down, cholesterol is OK, I believe. Other than that (head issue), I'm pretty alright myself.
I bake a lot too. My grandfather had a bakery and taught us hot to make wonderful things. And, although I'm not Italian, I live in a very Italian town. We were taught how to make great Italian food too. So much so, that people have asked me, "Which side of your family is Italian"? I reply, "Neither". | ||

I notice many who live in a warmer climate and get out doors more during the winter are more active, and seem healthier. Less cabin fever. The northeast winters are harsh. Must make an effort to go to the gym or exercise. Then who wants to drive in inclement weather? Stay in and eat, or occupy time with hobbies. | ||

I prefer a Dual-Fuel stove myself
Specifically, a gas cook top with an electric oven. One reason being, it is easier to regulate the temperature in an electric oven compared to a gas oven, which is EXTREMELY important if you like to bake, which I do from time to time. I've heard that from several people actually. Two of the head chefs in the hotel where work are actually very adamant about that, another woman who said the same thing owned and helped operate a bakery that had been in her family for decades. There's probably some truth to it but the newer gas ovens are probably at least somewhat better than older ones. Either way though, I love my Electrolux Wave-Touch dual fuel stove. It's been a good one other than the fact that one of the gas burners died and had to be replaced and it was just a year and a half old at the time.

I, too, have heard that dual fuel IS best.w However, we always had gas. I recently got a new gas stove. It works SO well. THat previous one, (rather cheap model) had a 'mystery temperature) ranging anywhere from 'heat' to 'cremate a body'. I've had to get used to this 'accurate temperature;. Plus, I have a marvelous Kitchenaid counter oven... electric. | ||

Yes Austin, Thermador is "spitzenklasse", unless you want Dacor, or Gaggenau. DCS and Five Star also make nice ranges. Dacor has that infrared broiler. | ||

A OLD gas oven With the modulating control bakes much better to me, I am just the opposite of most people,, I like electric surface units and a gas oven, but, living in the HOT South, I use electric. | ||

She buys cream and butter by the pounds. For certain, her ranch's prime beef doesn't end up at Walmart. | ||

Correction! The Pioneer Woman and her family do not live in Montana. They live outside Pawhuska, Oklahoma where her husband Ladd's family having been cattle ranching for over 100 years. The Drummond Ranch is one of the largest cattle ranches in the country. | ||
