I am writing this in disgust – tonight is my anniversary and wanting to treat my wife – I selected a popular restaurant that came with recomendations — I have lived here 7 years – more like a prision term – I have lived in 9 states – over 20 towns and cities – my wife has lived in 3 countries – we are stuck taking care of aging parent(s)
in less you are a factory worker -or make $500K which would allow you to “escape” then you need to know FW SUCKS!
Always 2nd rate or worse — minor league sports – restaurants that would never make it in a real city – we have a bartender for a mayor – a kiddie zoo instead of a real one – -a 3rd class talk radio station with host that is out of the 50’s, but a great place to get a TV job if you are overweight – nearing retirement or just plain boring… tonight we had our 3rd worst meal in the last 7 years — Casa restaurant (they own 5) — bread that is not Italian – marinara sauce that my dog won’t eat – green beans that were as flavorable as ice chips – veal that was almost as tough as round steak …. don’t go there unless you like to wear jeans and a ball cap backward or listen to senior drunks slurring the Lord’s name in vain — best thing on the menu — Capola Cabernet… FW has 2 gems — Hyde Brothers Book Store on Wells – BELIEVE ME – ONE OF THE BEST USED BOOK STORES IN THE COUNTRY — and a Public Library that is GREAT — but if you want to sit on lawn chairs in your garage and listen to the police scanner this is the place for you — when here I suggest planting some tomatoes and buy a snow blower — when ever possible escape to Indy for some reality or Chicago to catch up on the real world — also when you see corn fields on both sides of the road — prepare to lose your cell signal- very friendly advice – steer clear

We love the Lemon bars, and my family is not that easy to please. I too get requests for the recipe. They are great.

I must say, this suprises me. I have never had a problem with Krusteaz and always get rave reviews and requests for the recipe whenever I make it. I haven’t found a recipe that comes close – but I keep looking. I’d rather make homemade, but can’t find a crust to touch the delicious crust I get with Krusteaz

I think we keep trying because the picture on the Krusteaz box is so deceptively tempting thus making us forget the abject failure that is Krusteaz Lemon Bar mix. All I can say is, "Lies! Lieees!" Plus the baking pan is a real bear to clean out after the Krusteaz faux-lemon bar crust cements itself to the interior of our trusty no-stick baking pan.

We’ll have to try making lemon bars from scratch. I’m sure they’ll come out better than these artificially flavored disappointments and it can’t be that much harder.

Leo just reminded me that we’ve actually tried making these lemon bars twice before last night’s lackluster showing (in addition to Rachel’s try). So now I feel much more fair in my assessment. Three strikes and you’re out, Krusteaz!
