Our Van

Hi ShawnaE, welcome. I use the oven and stove alot, also the microwave. I guess it depends on what your cooking and remember also that a lot of people it seems are choosing to grill or bar-b-que. We have a 1991 that had about 69,000 but we only paid 6900 and that was including the fact that we had n...

Update on Sliders

Just a small note. Today, while at the market, I noticed that Sara Lee Bread now has a bag of slider buns for sale. It looked as though there were about 16-24 buns in the bag but I apologize becausee I just gave the bag a quick once over and didn't get a bun count.

Ice Cream on the road

I have always had fond memories of spending time as a child on my Uncle's farm and sitting around waiting my turn to crank the handle on the ice cream maker because if you didn't crank you didn't get to eat. Now days, its a little easier with the electric machines with no cranking and so maybe those...

Ruben soup or chowder and Bumstew

While on a recent weekend outing with my daughters and their families, it turned out we had leftovers from the various meals cooked by all to share, so using up some of the leftovers I came up with this soup or chowder, and stew. I have to say they turned out pretty good. Ruben soup or chowder 1 can...

Hey Skater, I too am sorry for your loss but glad that you and yours are O.K. I hope not to go through the experience but am glad to know that the van did offer protection from injury so it should give a little relief to the question of how the van will do in an accident. How did the interior hold u...

Baby Car Seats

Hi Tomo, We have a 1991 and the couch is equipped with three seat belts that are mounted to the floor and frame under the couch, I don't know if it's standard or not but if you havent done so, check under the couch. If you don't have them, you could probably get some cheap at a junk yard and either ...

How about a Slider

It seems as though every restaurant and fast food place has a slider, but try as they do, they don't compare to the original White Castle, King of the Sliders. The other night there was a segment of Undercover Boss that featured the grandson of the White Castle founder and it brought back memories o...

Plumbing Leak

Hi O.C. Eli, I have had very good results using a moldable epoxy putty made by P.C. Products. I found it in the plumbing section at Home Depot but I'm sure most hardware or plumbing stores would carry it. The putty comes in a clear tube with a red top and is a length of putty which you can break off...

Another heater problem

Well, the heater is working and I am amazed at how dumb I am and how simple the solution was this time. When Alaskan mentioned the breaker, I again took a look at the front of the heater and in the upper right hand corner found the small breaker had been tripped. For being ignorant, my wife and I co...

Another heater question

While on another outing in Idaho, we were hooked up to shore power and bcause of the temp, we had the heater going. Everything was fine the first day and we were nice and cozy, however, on the second day the heater quit and had it not been for the aux heater on the air conditioner we would have been...

Some Alternative Sides for Thanksgiving Dinner

Well it's almost that time again for a Thanksgiving Dinner Feast. I have already mentioned in another post last year about how I cook my turkey in the dishwasher and thought that I would share a couple of side dishes I make to go with the dinner. I have three daughters who cook for the family get to...

That van is also featured in the gallery section and I too was impressed with it but in all honesty, my wife and I haven't run into to many problems with our 91 and we go to a lot of different places here in Utah and Idaho. The stock van seems to handle everything we have encountered and only one pr...

Navajo Taco's and Scones

In an earlier post (comfort food) I submitted a recipe for making the best rolls or biscuits ever and that they were so simple to make, well, here's another take on the same recipe. In Utah and generally in the Southwest, we have a food known as a Navajo Taco made with a sweet dough, on our recent o...
