Katlady53 | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 05:27 pm     But didn't Dana garner lots of points last night? Hopefully, you will come out ahead. |

Beruthiel | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 05:31 pm     I'm complaining that I've read every thread waiting for the show and there are bellinis being served everywhere and I don't drink! I'm stomping off in a huff now to put the kettle on for a nice cuppa! [But only until the show spoiler thread starts ] |
Meggieprice | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 05:32 pm     LOL Laisey. You are rioght Katlady- but I hate it when something like that happens. I think last year you could not replace a team member who got voted off so we thought that would happen this year- but I read the rules and we do get to put someone else in... I saw those oranges in the ceremony for Jee's father and immediately started thinking we might see someone eat one! |
Costacat | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 05:32 pm     I'll make a very special nonalcholic bellini JUST FOR BERUTHIEL!!!! |
Auntiemike | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 05:35 pm     Costa, you are everywhere. Not that I'm complaining mind you...I noticed you started the new thread for tonights show. Now let's just see who will start the spoiling for us. |
Lurknomore | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 05:36 pm     AuntieMike...what's to like about ANY of them? (Not counting dearly departed Dave and my only hope for the house Jack) Sigh. I'd like to complain that I really believe everything I said in this post and I HATE that I feel that way. |
Costacat | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 05:44 pm     Auntiemike has NO idea just HOW sneaky I am!! |
Justareader | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 08:17 pm     I want to complain that I don't have any peach schnapps, champagne and ate my last peach today so I can't have a bellini!! darn ya again costa (i got the crave while reading 3 different threads ran into BELLINI's!) |
Justareader | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 08:18 pm     I wanna complain that the Producers so slanted the HOH comp that even the Hg's are discussing it!! Justin even said that only he could know this! |
Beruthiel | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 08:18 pm     Yup, filelock and double post again - I'm doomed! Sorry folks, maybe my fingers are sticky after Costacat's delicious Bellini! |
Beruthiel | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 08:20 pm     Sluuuurp! Very tasty, Costacat! Thankee very muchly! [So, is the recipe a secret then? ;-)] [Okaaaay - two posts, two filelocking errors. Will I get another double post? Stay tuned for more editing....] |
Costacat | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 08:41 pm     Beruthiel, it's champagne with peach puree or peach schnapps. If you use frozen peaches, you can make a slushy one. I've never tried making them with something nonalki, like asti spumanti, but I do know you don't want a real sweet sparkling drink. |
Laisey | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 08:52 pm     Costa, asti supumanti is alcohol. Perhaps sparkling cider would work for a non-alcholic drink. |
Costacat | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 08:57 pm     Oh duh... Yeah, sparkling cider *might* work. As long as it's not too sweet... |
Beruthiel | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 08:58 pm     Sounds scrumptious, Costa, I'll pass it on to those in my family who CAN drink! I invented a fake trifle for my kids, without sherry, years ago, so I'm sure I could try for a non-alcoholic bellini! [Just so I can join in the party, ya know! ] |
Beruthiel | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 09:02 pm     Real cider is pretty acidic, not all that sweet, so that might work. But English cider is alcoholic too, so what's North American cider like? |
Laisey | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 09:04 pm     Here's a weird thought. If a sparkling fruit beverage is too sweet, I wonder about adding a little tonic water, that's somewhat bitter. Oh dear, this is the complaint thread. OK I'm complaining that sparkling cider or grape juice might be too sweet to make a good virgin bellini. |
Laisey | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 09:11 pm     Beruthiel, I'm not sure how to describe it, something like a tangy apple juice maybe. It may be very much like your cider except it has been treated so it cannot ferment. I've heard stories when I was young of buying cider from roadside stands (in apple growing country) that had not been treated and adding raisens to it so it would ferment and become what was called hard cider. |
Suitsmefine | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 09:15 pm     I want to complain that Dana didn't knock the devil out of Ali before she walked out of the house! I really wanted her to, I can not stand Ali much longer...I hope Justin goes back on his word and puts Ali up with Nate. |
Misslibra | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 09:18 pm     Suit now wouldn't that be something if Justin goes back on his word and puts up Ali. She would be so shocked. Oh I forgot I'm suppose to be complaining...nevermind. |
Justareader | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 09:18 pm     I am complaining that suitsmefine just came up with a wonderful scenario that would be awesome to watch and unfold and see who goes and further complaining that it will probably never happen!!! |
Sisalou | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 09:53 pm     Oh Suits I hope you are right. I can't stand Ali much longer either. Blech! |
Draheid | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 10:03 pm     I want to complain that I seldom have the chance to post the 00th post like this one: 400 woohoo  |
Sisalou | Wednesday, August 06, 2003 - 10:09 pm     Well, Good for you!!! |
