And those who were previously NOT diabetic became so just on reading the recipe.

Pumpkin Coconut Cake

2 cups sugar

1 ¼ cups salad oil

4 eggs, beaten

2 cups cooked pumpkin

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

2 cups flour

1 tsp cinnamon

½ cup chopped nuts

½ cup flaked coconut

Beat together sugar and oil. Mix in pumpkin. Stir in dry ingredients. Fold in nuts and coconut. Pour into greased 13/9/2 pan and bake 350 F for 25-30 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool and frost.

Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting

½ stick butter, softened

1 8-oz package cream cheese

1 box confectioners’ sugar

1 tsp vanilla

½ cup chopped nuts

½ cup flaked coconut

Cream butter and cheese. Gradually add sugar and vanilla. Stir in nuts and coconut. Spread evenly over cooled cake.

I have a really good recipe for pumpkin coconut cake with cream cheese frosting. Tastes sort of like carrot cake, actually. Very delicious. And the addition of chocolate chips doesn't do any damage!

It's quite something! Hope you get to share in the pies. We once made pies from a 100 lb pumpkin. LOTS of pies! lol

Is that in your garden, Breech?

You have the pie pans ready?

I think it's another one of Curly's friends....

Sanny honey' date=' you know when we see minus 20 temperatures here in So Cal? When we look at that photo you posted. [/quote']

That photo is an aberration, Prof! I was with Snooky at a job interview in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Went into Yellowstone for the day. brrrr.

Even the bison were cold.

... I was seduced by a machine called Pacojet about 3 weeks ago. ...

Hi ChefJeff.....have you selected a KK yet? Dennis indicated after the first quake they were ok. Don't know about the others...

Lets hope there wasn't a ship in the way of the tsunami..

Looks like the shakes and quakes were in Sumatra, which is the large island to the west of Java. I think Surabaya (where Dennis is) is toward the east end of Java.

Still, lots of shaken and frightened people...

Ooooh! The blue is so pretty!! YAY!!!

I think that's my favorite standard tile color so far.

Note, I said STANDARD. Trish's is a joy to behold.

Whizzy's had cracks, but he bought it as a "second." The cracks were around the latch, and were a result of careless handling during shipping and customs. They had nothing to do with manufacturing.

LeadDoggy has a mustard (bein kind there) yeller one. And I've not heard that Nugget has cracks. I'm sure he'd not be silent over something like that.

Dennis is probably improving the finish on it, beyond what could be detected by mere mortals. Wouldn't want a textured to be less fabulous than the tiled, after all!

Hmm... I thought the stainless liner was to keep flames from licking directly on the stone.

But what do I know?

You're a "docling"! Good for you.

man' date=' i love wings on the kk! so, what do you taste in the swamp venom that makes it zing?[/quote']

That's the VENOM, silly! Sheesh.

K5, Dub? It's ok. That's what I cook on, too.

They let me play here anyway.

...if this is too risque' date=' please excuse the post... of course, you realize i had to do an image search for "pillow fight", so this one is pretty tame [/quote']Oooh, you mean "Sorority chickfight!" Got it.

Like pudding wrestling...

im STILL waiting to see a pillowfight!

Whose pillows are supposed to be fighting? I don't get it....

Holy avatar makeover' date=' sanny! You're.... you're... a GURL.[/quote']

This post STILL makes me giggle.

Re: What a friendly group....

...I do lots of woodwork so no trouble to build a table for it (which would be my plan with the egg anyway).

The concern with having a legless cooker is that it's like a Weeble. You know - Weebles wobble. There would be nothing holding it up. Dennis called it "Humpty Dumpty."

Dennis posted a possible solution that he could provide, which was to secure the cooker with four bolts.

Of course, the porch platform that the poster suggested wasn't actually a table to stand the cooker in. It was more like an egg cup with the cooker balanced in it. I can see there would be a difference between that a table that supported the upper part of the cooker.

Might still want some way to bolt the cooker to the bottom support of the table.

Hi, Dave! Welcome.

What's your favorite cook? Anything in particular, or just anything that holds still long enough to get seasoned and put on the grill? lol

Re: Weber Holders?

What are Weber holders and where can I get them?

I think, based on one of Cozy's previous posts, that they're a metal creature that Weber makes for inside the Weber kettles. The holders keep the hot coals to one side so the heat is not directly under the drippy birdy. The rotiss spins, bird drips into drip pan, and cooking is by heat from the side, rather than directly under the bird.

"See these and other fine accessories wherever Weber items are sold!" Sorry - no idea where to buy them.

Cozy has done a setup with TWO holders, so birdy has heat from either side.

Picture postcard perfect!

Was it as yummy as it looks, Cozy?

Until you can get The One True KK Stone, try a fibrament. I hear good reports about them, and I've had good success with mine.

To use it on your KK, be sure to get the one with the grill tray under it to protect it from direct or high heat.

Yummy!

What time should we all be there?
