Open Seas: Passengers vs. the Airline Industry
http://openseas.blogspot.com/2009/12/passengers-vs-airline-industry.html
Monday, December 21, 2009. Passengers vs. the Airline Industry. Wow, this administration did something I might actually agree. With MIGHT. We'll have to see how it plays out, though. There could be unforeseen consequences with this. The government imposed a three-hour time limit on airplanes delayed on tarmacs. But I do feel a little better about flying, now that there is less chance that I would be one of those poor people stuck in that traveling nightmare! Posted by Kristi at 6:01 PM. Z is for Zest.

Open Seas: Another Letter on the Health Care Debate
http://openseas.blogspot.com/2010/03/another-letter-on-health-care-debate.html
Friday, March 05, 2010. Another Letter on the Health Care Debate. This letter from the AUL (Americans United for Life) website lays out the abortion concern in the health care package much better than I could ever do with what I know just from debate on TV. Go here. To send this letter to your Senators and Representatives:. Mar 5, 2010. Hart Senate Office Building, Room 717. Constitution Avenue and 2nd Street, NE. Washington, DC 20510-2507. Dear Senator McCaskill (and Todd Akin, and Kit Bond),.

Open Seas: Y is for Yeast
http://openseas.blogspot.com/2009/07/y-is-for-yeast.html
Monday, July 13, 2009. Y is for Yeast. It is definitely on my list though, to attempt making bread with yeast. This Rustic Country Bread. Looks like a nice recipe to start with. That recipe uses bread flour, which would give me practice with yet another kind of flour to add to my repertoire. :). Yeast seems to give you a better variety of the types of breads you can bake. Another recipe that is a bit more savory is this one for Feta and Tomato Focaccia. Some more I'm bookmarking:. Welcome to Open Seas.

Open Seas: May 2005
http://openseas.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 27, 2005. I should've known from the beginning I've never liked that. Guess I'll just have to get used to it. I'm learning tons of great skills for working in this industry though. If I can conquer this job, I'm a travel PRO. Posted by Kristi at 8:17 PM. Friday, May 13, 2005. Sometimes I feel like there's only so much that can fit in my brain. I'm gonna have to make it stretch a bit to fit in everything that I'm learning this week! Posted by Kristi at 7:56 PM. Monday, May 09, 2005. I did pret...

Open Seas: V is for Vanilla Bean
http://openseas.blogspot.com/2009/07/v-is-for-vanilla-bean.html
Friday, July 10, 2009. V is for Vanilla Bean. Who doesn't love Cheesecake Factory's Vanilla Bean Cheesecake? Then I bet these Vanilla Bean Cheesecake Bars. Would be almost as good:. But have you ever baked. Anything with an actual vanilla bean? I sure haven't, which is one of the reasons why I am intimidated by this recipe for Real Vanilla Bean Buttercream. That looked pretty simple (it's combined here with a recipe for cream cheese bread pudding, which sounds a-maz-ing! Posted by Kristi at 6:06 PM.

Open Seas: The Weekly Cookie?
http://openseas.blogspot.com/2010/03/weekly-cookie.html
Tuesday, March 16, 2010. I love cookies. Most of you know by now my love of all things cookie. I even love their name and it's one of my favorite things to say: cookie. Cookie. Cookie cookie cookie. (."starts with C! Ok I've sung the praises of cookie enough. I would love to have the time to bake cookies at least once a week. I have, actually, for the past two weeks. Here is my batch of cookies from last week:. Vanilla Pudding Chocolate Chip Cookies. I think they turned out pretty successfully!

Open Seas: Weekly Cookie: Easter Cookies
http://openseas.blogspot.com/2010/03/weekly-cookie-easter-cookies.html
Sunday, March 28, 2010. Weekly Cookie: Easter Cookies. Well, I didn't keep up my theme of weekly cookies too long, but I wanted to post this cookie idea because I have lemon extract left from the lemon coolers and I have buttermilk, so I may just give these Lemon Buttermilk Easter Cookies. I'm going to do the lemon coolers again with my sister, and I'll use the leftover lemon extract for these. If I get time before Easter. :). Posted by Kristi at 10:49 PM. Welcome to Open Seas.

Open Seas: W is for Whole Wheat Flour
http://openseas.blogspot.com/2009/07/w-is-for-whole-wheat-flour.html
Saturday, July 11, 2009. W is for Whole Wheat Flour. Of course I have baked with all-purpose flour. have also baked with cake flour. But I have yet to try baking with whole wheat flour. It adds bonus nutrition to your baked goodies with no extra effort. I rounded up a few interesting recipes (of course from Baking Bites. I just have to say I love how she indexes and catalogs every recipe she has posted):. Strawberry Whole Wheat Pancakes. Whole Grain Banana Cake. Whole Grain Blueberry Buckle. Afar and in ...

Open Seas: June 2005
http://openseas.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 26, 2005. The good thing about working till 7:30 is that the phones REALLY slow down, and plus I'm getting paid a shift differential of 10% for the time I work after 6:00. It's not much, but hey. it's more! Posted by Kristi at 3:28 PM. Friday, June 17, 2005. Posted by Kristi at 1:16 AM. Tuesday, June 07, 2005. Next week, I start working 11-7:30. How did I get stuck with such a lousy shift? Posted by Kristi at 8:51 PM. Welcome to Open Seas. A Travelblogue for my journeys. Z is for Zest.
