  1. Due to a problem with the Castle Mailer System, a Newsletter for today [June 15, 2020], there will not be a newsletter being sent out.
    ,
    We will resume the newsletter mailing once our Mailer App fixes the problem... we hope it is soon.

    Castle Roland hopes that you will understand and be patient with us.

  2. Here are 3 basic recipes: 

     


     

    DENIS' POTATO/SAUSAGE CASSEROLE


     

    Ingredients:

    2 Pounds frozen hash brown potatoes

    1 Pound bulk 'country' sausage*

    3/4 Cup melted margarine

    1/2 Cup chopped onion

    1 tsp. salt

    1/4 tsp. pepper

    1 Can 'Cream of Chicken' soup**

    1 Pint sour cream

    2 Cups grated 'horseradish' White Cheddar cheese***

    2 Cups crushed cornflakes


     

    Instructions:


     

    1) Defrost potatoes.

    2) Brown crumbled Sausage, drain fat, set aside.

    3) In large bowl, combine the potatoes, 1/2 cup melted margarine, salt, pepper, onion, soup, sour cream, and cheese.

    4) In a buttered 13" X 9" baking pan, use a portion of the potato mixture to evenly cover the bottom of the pan, layer the sausage, then layer the remaining potato mixture.

    5) Mix crushed cornflakes with 3 Tbls. melted margarine.  Then sprinkle over mixture.

    6) Bake uncovered at 350 deg. F for 1 hour.

    ~~~~~

    (*) The bulk 'country' sausage can be replaced by any 'ground' meat.

    (**)  'Cream of Mushroom' soup can be substituted.

    (***)  If you can not find 'Horseradish' White Cheddar Cheese, use 'Plain' White Cheddar Cheese and mix 3 heaping tsp. of 'creamy' horseradish into the Sour Cream.

    ~~~~~

    I hope that you enjoy this dish.  Even I, who does not like 'Cheese' and 'Sour Cream', will eat this and LIKE it.

  4. MultiMapper...

    I've just finished Chap. 12 and I must say it is another wonderful glimpse into the life of Cliff, Ben, JD, and Jody's home... Though I think the characters have talked you into adding Michael into their family... I think they are made for each other.

    I hope that shortly we will all get another glimpse into their lives... hint... hint!
     ;)

    Again Thank You for sharing such a wonderful story with us all... You are truly a GREAT ARTIST!!! 

  5. IMHO... All three stories are great and each author should be proud of their work...

     

    I for one would like to see each continue on... but that is up to the authors... Authors just know that you will have at least one egger fan out here hoping for more...

     

    Though today is the last day for voting I would like to challenge all the forum members to read each story and vote...

  6. MultiMapper… Just finished reading Chapter 3 of ‘Pioneer’ and I must say how great it was to read. Another GREAT Chapter of Another GREAT Story… You are a true Artist with words and characters… You make them real so much so that we the readers seem to fall in love with them and hope the best for them… and Hope that you share more of their stories with us… I’m really like that you end these chapters with the Log Entries for each of the Cadets… It adds so much to the story.

  10. Prophet,

     

    Your first statement is Echo is a typical 16 year old boy but then you go to how he is from and upscale neighborhood and goes to a charter school and flies and rebuilds planes for a hobby. These are not typical of a 16 year old. That first statement seems to be a dramatic contrast the the rest of the paragraph

     

    I am interested in seeing where this goes.

     

    Ken,

     

    1. "You don't have to be a particular age before you can begin to take flying lessons. That said, however, you do have to be at least 16 years old before you can solo an airplane (14 years old for operation of a balloon or glider), and 17 before you can be issued a pilot certificate."
