They were there before because I read them this AM. Perhaps they are just now moving them to the Aug 28 archive thread????

Jan, it's so strange.... they are not yet in the archive thread and it usually takes several days for them to be moved to that page. Usually there are several archive folders at the top of the current LFP page.

It's a mystery but I hope they return soon. Thanks!

Someone noted earlier that the HG aren't running to the DR all the time - I disagree. From what I've seen on the live feeds, they're *constantly* going to the DR to ask questions about upcoming events, ask for things like specific foods, etc.
Kinda disappoints me really; BB is supposed to be very "hands-off" and no outside contact, yet the HG know "behind the scenes" people by name (John) and go in there anytime they want some information. Shouldn't they be left to guess?

Only too happy to talk about The Babies, Jan! They are Tonkinese (half Siamese, half Burmese) and are sweet, playful and full of personality. Sometimes they are almost dog-like.... waiting at the door for your arrival, wanting attention from all visitors.

Thanking you on their behalf for the compliment!

Jan, I can't say enough about this breed. I did a lot of reading before bringing home siblings two years ago. They are described this way in all profiles and all the superlatives have proven to be true with our pair.

Check here for some good info (link to a good Tonk page), and I hope you fall in love with a Tonk!

This has nothing to do with BB at all, but maybe someone can answer it for me here that might not otherwise see the Community Corner area where I asked it...

What is "converted rice"? I have a slow cooker recipe taht calls for converted white rice. I have instant rice taht says converted on the box- does converted mean instant? 10 minutes rice in a slow cooker for 4 hours seems to be a little too much!

Dont't use the 10-min instant rice.

Converted is not instant rice. Converted is the 'slow-cooking' rice. Right next to the instant rice at the grocery store. Can be in a bag and a box. :)

Thank you!!! I would have, but I was thinking about it and it just didn't seem right!

Is Jun back in the house yet?

Will Jun know about the POV winner?? That could change things..

Kaili, Uncle Ben's Converted Rice is the BEST (NOT the instant kind)! Easy to cook, just follow the directions on the box/bag and DON'T LIFT THE LID to check on it while it's cooking! And feel free to eliminate the butter (optional)...doesn't detract from the good taste. And if it's cooked properly, unlike other rice types, each grain of rice will be separate, NOT sticky. Good luck!

Has BB announced who won the veto? I keep reading that Allison won, but is it official? I understand that Erica was more detailed where Jun was, saying NYC and Allison just said the MTV music awards.

After they watched the show on the plasma screen last night, it showed that Ali won the veto.
And Jun just got back,it seems!

What is this 'Pirate's Booty' that they keep talking about Jun getting? They say it's good. What is it?

No Whit....ROFLMA....it was something in her basket when they were going threw her HOH goodies.

Ham ok - I thought you were referring to the convo they had outside where Jun let them know that the benefit of the private hotel room was 'that' - they all knew what she meant (and had discussed it the night before :)

Hamsterlady

Friday, August 29, 2003 - 03:08 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Yeah, I heard that too Whit! :) Thought that was pretty funny. I guess I should have mentioned this 'Pirate's Booty' in her HOH basket like I did in the 2nd post....LOL
