Carolyn Allen Quotations

I also prepackage cheese and sausage for my homemade pizzas,

The same goes for the sausage. I buy it freshly ground and seasonedbut with absolutely no unwanted preservatives addedfrom a local butcher shop, and freeze it (three-quarters of a pound per container) in pint cartons.

I know we're all getting these telephone calls and I understand the public would like something done. But I personally would like things to settle down before we . . . start monkeying around with something that we don't understand the long-range consequences.

So I decided to make my own pizza sauce from my own homegrown produce during the following canning season, ... It took a bit of experimenting to come up with just the right amount of all the ingredients . . . but I finally hit upon a blend that the folks around here seem to relish. The secret is the herbs: Don't be afraid to put more of 'em in than you think you shouldl That's what gives my sauce its hearty flavor and character.

I absolutely believe that an audit is warranted; 20 years is too long, ... There have been a lot of allegations about this board, but the key word is 'allegations.' We need to, hopefully through an audit, see if the allegations have any merit. I'm not necessarily digging for any unethical behavior, but after 20 years, I think we should take a look.

My personal feeling is were not going to see the price of oil and the price at the pump go down for a long time, ... I just dont think its sound public policy in the times we live in now. Id rather have a bank account so if something hits us and hits us hard, we have got a fund.
