Brian: If at any point, using the Oster for ice becomes desirable for some reason, the glass jar is readily available and works just fine. It also uses the same base/blade assembly and lid parts as your plastic jar, so there would be nothing else to buy. I cannot even imagine what something...

Oster Ice Crushing: As Pete petek mentioned, Oster made an ice-crushing blade, and it's not expensive. They also made an ice-crushing attachment similar to the one Waring made. The ice-crushing blade is fine if you have the glass jar or the stainless jar for your Osterizer. I don't really...

In another thread, someone asked about the oven safety of Farberware's phenolic handles, and I responded from memory, saying 350 degrees Fahrenheit, which is the usual recommendation for Bakelite. Today, I received a selection of original Farberware brochures I purchased on eBay, and one of...

Why Wait, John? I had some tonight with roast chicken and pretended it was Spring already. Felt good, too. I'm a little over soups and stews and all the cold-weather fare at the moment.

Is There.... A link or anything like that?

Yikes! When I lived in Atlanta, I used to drool over the incredible finds in other cities I saw on AW and wonder, "What do I have to do to get such great stuff to surface in Atlanta?" Now I know - I had to leave. :)

Oh, Man! I knew that Bosco was still around, but actually finding it? Haven't been able to do that. I remember when kids begged for Bosco worse than they beg for pizza today.

P.S.: Sylvia's dish drainer's drainboard is wrong - that's a new Rubbermaid drainboard with the drain ramp on the side. In the '60s, dish drainboards drained from the end.

I Missed That Too.... ....Mainly because I was so P.O.'ed at both Don and Mrs. Rosen. Even for adultery, that was just plain damn DUMB. I was surprised that only Sally caught them, and that no more came of it than did come of it. In fact, for a while there, I was expecting Don to get shot...

Those of you who read the thread on my recent Farberware find may recall that Brent a440 and I got into a little sidebar discussion about the red potato salad at Publix - a treat I really miss. Brent duly scoured the Internet and came up with a recipe said to be it. Brent and I did some...

I Really Envy You.... ....That 4-quart Farberware saucepan. That's a piece I've been looking for forever. They can be had on eBay if one cares to pay the price, of course, but they're HTF in thrifts. Congratulations.

Bill: Parts for these ranges are expensive because they're limited-demand items made of cast and/or machined metal. However, there is an upside. Once you spend the money and replace what's needed, you should have a range that will last you the rest of your life if you take care of it. And...

Aleah: Someone here can probably help you with finding a new timer or determining what's wrong with yours. Timers for this machine are not a big deal - should be fairly easy to find, and not very expensive. The model number you gave, LA 208, just means an "A 208" (Automatic washer, 208...

Brent: It looks like it could be "right," or very close. I would question the use of light mayonnaise, but it's easy enough to use the real thing. Thank you VERY much! I'll report back on results.

Brent: Thanks for the thought! Everything - and I do mean everything - ready-made of that nature here is loaded with sugar. I bought some delicious-looking bacon, lettuce and tomato pasta salad a few months ago. The only way I could have gotten anything sweeter would have been to go to Dairy...

Arthur: It's okay - I'm glad we had the chance to chat, too. All is well.

Brent: Aw, you had to mention Publix's deli food! I really miss their red potato salad. Very good stuff. What is sold as potato salad in my area is so full of sugar it could be used for an ice cream topping.

Ralph Is Right: Sausage horns are sold by the diameter; measure the diameter of the grinder's opening. Also, do you have the power take-off for your Mixmaster? The power take-off has to be attached to the mixer, and then the grinder attached to the power take-off, for things to work. Getting...

Robert: The reasons I was concerned were: 1) I don't want to offend anyone here, and Arthur seems offended. 2) I did not ask him for anything personal; if you'll look at Post #52, all I was asking about was what we should call him? I even said that I didn't care if it was a real name; just a...

Huh? I'm not sure what you felt was something to report, Arthur. Perhaps you could explain?
