Potato and Cheese Filling
by: Michael A. Stazko
One of the most popular, if not the best, Polish dishes is the pierogi.
Pierogi is a versatile food that can be enjoyed several different ways.
It is basically a dumpling that can be stuffed with meat, sauerkraut, potato, or any other filling of your choice.
My personal favorite is pierogi stuffed with cheese and potato.
Here is the recipe:
Dough:
2 cups of flour
3/4 cup of warm water
1 egg
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon of salt
Filling:
2 large or 4 regular sized potatoes
3 slices of Velveeta Cheese
2 tablespoons of cream cheese
salt and pepper to your liking
Directions:
Peel the potatoes and cut them into small pieces.
Put the potatoes in a pot of water and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to medium/high and let the potatoes cook for 20 minutes or until soft.
While the potatoes are cooking, start making the dough.
Spray and coat an empty bowl with cooking spray.
Add the water, egg, and vegetable oil to the bowl and stir.
Then mix in the flour and salt until you make a dough.
Take the dough out of the bowl and kneed it on a table with flour until it is smooth and not too sticky.
Roll the dough into a ball, put it under plastic wrap, and let it sit for 30 minutes.
When the potatoes are done cooking, drain the water out of the pot.
Add the Velveeta and cream cheese along with some salt and pepper. You can also add a small bit of milk to make the potatoes easier to mash.
Then mash the potatoes until they are smooth and fluffy.
Let the potatoes cool.
After you let the potatoes cool for about 15 minutes, your dough should be ready.
Take a large piece of dough and flatten it out, with a rolling pin, on a table coated with some flour.
Use a circle cookie cutter and cut out pieces of dough.
With a teaspoon, scoop a small amount of the potato filling and put it in the middle of a piece of dough.
Close the dough around the potato and pinch shut with your fingers and a fork.
Keep repeating this process until you run out of dough or filling.
This should make about 20 pierogi.
When you are done making the pierogi, boil them, five at a time, in a pot of water for two to three minutes, or until they float.
Then fry them in pan with butter.
Now they are ready to eat.
You can top them with sour cream, onion, bacon, or your favorite gravy.
Either way, this is a dish you are sure to enjoy.

Developing Wellsite Geology Software
by: Rob Francis
Over the years I have been able to work on many different software projects. Some of these were stand-alone applications, others were client server applications that made good use of the local networks. A lot of Web development and working with Web technologies also played a part. All of these projects were challenging but not nearly as complex as the software industry with its myriad languages, technologies - its crazy jargon and seemingly endless acronyms. That was until now.
You see, now I have been immersed into the giant world of the oil and gas industry. They have their own languages and enough acronyms to make even a hardened software guy shudder. When you come across terms like datum, TVD (True Vertical Depth), mudlogging, RT (Rotary Table Elevation), MSL (Mean Sea Level), MDRT (Measured Depth from the Rotary Table), KB (Kelly Bushing), AHD (Australian Height Datum), plus many, many...

Buying Tips When You're Camping
Buying Tips When You're Camping
by: Gray Rollins
Whether you are an experienced camping enthusiast or you are starting off on your first camping experience, it is important to have the proper gear and equipment. Many of the supplies can be expensive and some items may be hard to find. To get the most for your money, though, there are several tricks you can employ.
Plan
Unless you have an unlimited budget, a camping trip is not something where you can get everything at once without a bit of planning. Research where you will be going, the conditions that will be present and the climate. Make a list of all the supplies you will need and determine what items you have available and what items you will need to purchase. If you start early enough, you?ll be able to spread purchases over a longer period of time so it does not take as big a hit to your budget all at once.
Budget
Research on the Internet or at local sporting goods stores...

Unique Mother's Day Gift - No More Flowers and Chocolate
by: William Jacobson
With Mother?s Day approaching fast, it?s time to begin thinking about how best to express how much Mommy Dearest means to us. If you?re like most, Mother?s Day has become a routine that consists of a greeting card, a bouquet of flowers, and a phone call to say "I love you". And though mom surely loves the sentiment, perhaps 2005 should be a year when you put a bit more creativity into your gift idea.
How about giving the gift of art? Several businesses across the country create one-of-a-kind, stylish, and sentimental works of art from customers? photographs, often for a price less than what you?d pay for a mass-produced department store print.
Here are just a few examples:

The traditional cure for yeast/ candida with Nystatin is often not successful. Antibiotics makes thrush and yeast infections worse. Still we want to cure our yeast infections and thrush with a remedy, which has no side effect and is successful in battling yeast/ candida infections (thrush).

Top 5 Things Your Mother Never Told You about Giving Gifts
Top 5 Things Your Mother Never Told You about Giving Gifts
by: Cindy Carrera
If your mom's like mine, she probably gave you lots of advice on what to do about mostly everything, including giving gifts. But sometimes what your mother didn't tell you about giving gifts is what matters most.
1. Like, for instance, did your mother ever tell you not to give women appliances as gifts? Mine didn't. In fact, I distinctly remember the year she gave Aunt Maxinne...
