Thanks Antsu, I don't really need or want it back ... Just pay it forward. Have fun in the bubbles. LOL sesport

Hey, Antsu - Just stopping by to give you 5 points & a vote for "Featured Shaler." Have a good weekend. Best - sesport :0)

Yes, SueBaby! You are in luck. Here's the recipe:

* 9-inch baked pie shell (actually, I like to crush my favorite butter cookies, add cinnamon and nuts, butter and sugar to make my own shell. Tastes sooooo much better than those store bought ones!!)

* 1 1/2 quarts of strawberries
* 3/4 cup of sugar
* 3 tablespoons of cornstarch
* 2/3 cup of water
* a few drops of red food color (if desired...I don't add it)

* 1 1/2 packages of cream cheese, softened
* 1/2 cup of powdered sugar
* dash of cinnamon or nutmeg

Prepare and bake pie shell if needed. Mash enough of the strawberries to measure 1 cup. Mix the sugar and cornstarch in a 2-quart saucepan. Gradually stir in water, food color and mashed strawberries. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir for one minute; then cool.

Beat cream cheese until smooth. Add spices and powdered sugar. Spread in pie shell. Fill shell with remaining strawberries. Pour cooked mixture over the top. Put in the fridge for about three hours or until set. Enjoy...

PS...I've done this same pie with lemon peels and lemon juice instead of strawberries. One of my cookie shop's best sellers!!

Great Day Antsu....I hate to ask, but did you ever find the recipe for the Strawberry pie ??. I bought Louisiana Strawberries yesterday at the marker and
thought about that pie !!

thanks :-)

Please do!

Hello Antsu-in-Japan,
I cannot believe that we haven't made friends before now! I so enjoy reading your comments. You are very thought provoking and teach us to look at things from a different prospective. Keep up with the good work. I value your comments more than you know.

Antsu,

You make wonderful lemonade. You show such class in your posts.

I am pleased to call you friend. Keep standing up for truth.

You write eloquently. I am glad that you are a wonderful ambassador to Japan.

Antsu,

Continue to make lemonade.

All of your post are interesting and thought provoking.

Don’t let the ignorance of others bother you.

I’m sure that you get through to those that have an open heart.

Antsu - eeeeeoooonnnnssss ago, just pre-Viet Nam,, we lived there for about 2 yrs., best kept secret in the Marianas back then. We lived at the beaches & pools. I learned to skateboard there & do the hula. LOL I hear that it's now become quite the secret little "Hawaii" & tourist spot,I guess. At least I'm sure it's less expensive. :0)
Have a good evening - sesport

Antsu - You guys must be just winding down for the evening over there. I visited Japan yeeeaaarrrrss ago as a child when my dad was stationed on Guam. I hope it's still as pretty as it was then. Must be seeing cherry blossoms about now.
The weekend's off to a great start ... good weather, last big Shreveport Mardi Gras parade. You can check it out at ktbs.com.

Just dropping by to say hello. Have one "shale" of a day. Also, there some new profile questions. Check those out by clicking HERE. We are also coming up on our 10,000th member. Be sure to celebrate with me. Click HERE for more about that.

Thank you Antsu, we had a great time. We hope that one day you'll get a chance to come back to the main land, so we can visit.

Good for the kitty. it look's like Godzilla didn't have a chance.

Sure you can bowl, anytime you want, maybe we need too set up a Wi for everybody.

Antsu,
I love your picture, I hope the kitty won.

Awesome video!! :)

I do not know which state it is in, but I will find out. Thanks for the birthday wishes.

Hello Antsu,
My friend is on his way to Japan. He is going to Ohyanohara how far is that from you

I don't think we know anyone in those sections. We are focused mostly on Southwest Shreveport. But if I run across anyone in there, I will send them your way! Thanks!
