There is this recipe from Emeril that i make. but everytime i make it is so watery. it tastes great, but the cookies always run into each other and don't look like cookies. they are very thin and are hard to get off the pan. i put vegetable oil (the spray can ones) but it still is very hard. i wait for the cookies to cool so that isn't the problem. i have provided the recipe below so that you can try it and see if yours end up like that. thank you for your effort.

I am helping my friend to sell some Remy Martin wine glasses. But no one else is selling the same glass on ebay or else where. I don't know how much I should set the sell price of each glass. The word of "REMY MARTIN" and "COGNAC" are at the bottom of the glass.

Here are the photos:

They may come as bonus with Remy Martin wine purchase. There is no box left so I will sell them as used and like new.

Anyone can tell me how much the glass is worth for new and for used? Thanks.

When I eat dairy I have bad bloating and gas, and I heard that lactaid pills help with that, but I also get VERY bad constipation with dairy and sometimes my skin breaks out. Will lactaid help with the constipation it causes as well? I'm guessing it won't help with the acne.

I asked a question about tesco meat and paper, a lot of people said to soak up the water and blood, but when you buy meat from the butcher it isn't all wet and bloody, does this mean we are all getting stiffed by Tesco et al to make it a little heavier? couple of grams over a million people is a lot of water... right?
