Thanks! I always use cooks.com but couldn't find this one on that site. After a bit more relentless web searches, I found it last night on a website called: "Homestead Blogger South of the Gnat Line". The woman posted the pictures of the Wesson Mayo making Jar too. Since I don't have a jar like that, I will either use a blender or a hand held egg beater. ... View related article.
The shredded wheat squares work better and are easy to work with, but I have used the mini shredded wheat in the past (the plain ones not the frosted ones). You'll have to adjust, but you could use about 1/2 cup of the plain mini shredded wheats in plain of one of the larger biscuits. Use a larger spatula to drain of the water so you don't lose any of the mini wheats down the drain. ... View related article.
Ok, I dug a little more and found another one on About.com - REAL homemade SCRATCH Butterscotch cookies - NOT using butterscotch chips...the secret is the brown sugar and butter. That is what makes it 'butterscotch'. It calls for using walnuts - but I added on 'or pecans' as I think pecans go better with this type of cookie dough. Nuts are optional of course. I'm going to make these this weekend!
These butterscotch icebox cookies are chilled in a loaf pan, then cut and baked.
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened 1 cup packed light brown sugar 1 egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts or pecans
PREPARATION:
In a mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar well. Add egg and vanilla; beat until smooth and creamy. Mix flour and baking soda; stir into the creamed mixture. Add walnuts, mixing with hands if too thick for a spoon.
Pack dough in 9x5x3-inch loaf pan lined with waxed paper. Chill overnight. Turn dough out of pan and slice about 1/4-thick; place on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake in 400° oven for about 8 minutes. Makes about 3 dozen butterscotch cookies.
For an added treat, go ahead and mix in some actual butterscotch chips.
I found out that the Gillette Company was the vendor for Tame Creme Rinse, but they were bought out by Proctor and Gamble. I wrote to P&G and received a response that said all hair care products that were Gillette products were either eliminated or sold to the White Rain Corporation (now owned by 'Huish Detergents, Inc'). I wrote to them tonight at whiterainconsumer.relations@huish.com to ask if they might consider bringing it back. It is possible that they never received the formulation for Tame, but it was worth a try. ... View related article.
I loved Tame Creme Rinse! I've tried to find it even online with no luck. The last time I remember seeing it was in the late 1980s. Here is something my mother used to substitute when I was a child when we ran out of Tame. She would put about a teaspoon of liquid fabric softener in a cup of warm water and stirred it up. Then she would pour it over my hair after shampooing. It worked nearly as well as the Tame and my hair did not turn out all limp and oily feeling like with today's hair conditioners. ...
