From Care2 Ask Annie - Green Cuisine

* pumpkin seeds from 1 or more pumpkins
* 1 tablespoon butter
* salt

Wash the pumpkin seeds to remove all the pulp, and place in a bowl.
Melt the butter in a pan and then pour, bit by bit, into the nuts,
tossing while you go. The key is not to use too much butter, but just
enough to lightly coat the seeds. Smaller pumpkins may require less
than 1 tablespoon of butter, larger ones more. Add salt. Preheat the
oven to 250F; spread the seeds out over a baking pan and bake, turning
occasionally, until crisp and lightly golden browned. Overcooking
causes the nuts to toughen and lose flavor.

American Indian Variation
Wash the pumpkin seeds thoroughly, and place them in a bowl. Cover
with cold water to which just enough salt has been added that it is
still drinkable, and let soak overnight. Drain the seeds, place them
on a cookie sheet, and cook in a low oven -250 F- until they are crisp
and golden brown.

No, it's not. We never even feed our dogs and cat table scraps.
But seriously, pumpkin seeds are so tasty. I look forward to making
some.

Good question. I guess they crave it like we do, but I don't think
they need the iodine put in as an additive in table salt.

(This is a ONE TIME EMAIL, please click delete and accept my
apologies if you are not interested in making a legal CASH income by investing a
small amount of time and money)

Dear Entrepreneur:

If you've read this far, chances are you're currently working in
a home business, or have in the past. Unfortunately, there's also a 90%
or better chance that you aren't seeing the kind of income you had hoped
for either.

If you're honest with yourself, you know exactly what I'm saying.
You did everything you were told to do, but it just hasn't happened for
you, time and time again. Sound familiar?

Spend a fraction of the time you would at most day jobs or home
businessesand make some cold, hard, CASH!!!! I send out these emails, as
many as Ican, and people send me cash in the mail for information that I
just email back to them. It is all completely legal, and I get to make that
walk to the mailbox every day knowing that it is full of $5 bills for me!!

What you are about to read is very exciting. Prepare to be
amazed. It will explain how almost anyone can legally make a lot of money, in
CASH!!!

You don't need to have a lot of experience, time, or money to do
this, but if you do - all the better! The most important thing you need is
the desire to get ahead, a bit of spare time, and an entrepreneurial spirit.

Have you been disappointed with a lot of so-called
"opportunities" or all the hassles associated with selling on online auctions? This is
different! I'm sure you've heard that before, but please take a few minutes to
go through the plan, and make sure you read all of the information.

Make this the one you act on!

==================================================
DEAR FRIENDS AND FUTURE MILLIONAIRES:

AS SEEN ON NATIONAL TV:

"Making over half a million dollars every 4 to 5 months from your
home for an investment of only $25 U.S. Dollars expense one time"

THANKS TO THE COMPUTER AGE AND THE INTERNET!
==================================================

BE A MILLIONAIRE LIKE OTHERS WITHIN A YEAR!!!

Before you say "Bull", please read the following. This is the
letter you have been hearing about on the news lately. Due to the popularity of
this letter on the Internet, a national weekly news program recently devoted
an entire show to the investigation of this program described below, to see
if it really can make people money. The show also investigated whether
or not the program was legal.

Their findings proved once and for all that there are "absolutely
NO Laws prohibiting the participation in the program and if people can
follow the simple instructions, they are bound to make some mega bucks with
only $25 out of pocket cost."

DUE TO THE RECENT INCREASE OF POPULARITY & RESPECT THIS PROGRAM
HAS ATTAINED, IT IS CURRENTLY WORKING BETTER THAN EVER.

This is what one had to say: "Thanks to this profitable
opportunity. I was approached many times before but each time I passed on it. I am
so glad I finally joined just to see what one could expect in return for
the minimal effort and money required. To my astonishment, I received total
$610,470.00 in 21 weeks, with money still coming in."

Pam Hedland, Fort Lee, New Jersey.

================================================================

Here is another testimonial: "This program has been around for a
long time but I never believed in it. But one day when I received this
again in the mail I decided to gamble my $25 on it. I followed the simple
instructions and viola ... 3 weeks later the money started to come in! First month
I only made $240.00 but the next 2 months after that I made a total of
$290,000.00. So far, in the past 8 months by re-entering the program, I have made
over $710,000.00 and I am playing it again. The key to success in this
program is to follow the simple steps and NOT change anything."

More testimonials later but first,

If you would like to make at least $500,000 every 4 to 5 months
easily and comfortably, please read the following. THEN READ IT AGAIN and
AGAIN!!!

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

FOLLOW THE SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW AND YOUR FINANCIAL DREAMS
WILL COME TRUE, GUARANTEED!
INSTRUCTIONS:

======== Order all 5 reports shown on the list below. ===========

For each report, send $5 CASH (US CURRENCY), THE NAME & NUMBER OF
THE REPORT YOU ARE ORDERING and YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS (plus an alternate email
address, at a different domain name if possible, if you have one, in case of
unforeseen problems) to the person whose name appears ON THAT LIST next to
the report.

MAKE SURE YOUR RETURN ADDRESS IS ON YOUR ENVELOPE TOP LEFT CORNER
in case of any mail problems.

=== When you place your order, make sure you order each of the 5
reports.
You will need all 5 reports so that you can save them on your
computer and resell them. YOUR TOTAL COST $5 X 5 = $25.


=== Within a few days you will receive, via email, each of the 5
reports from these 5 different individuals. Save them on your computer so they
will be accessible for you to send to the 1,000's of people who will
order them from you. Also make a copy on a floppy disk of these reports and keep
it somewhere safe in case something happens to your computer.


=== IMPORTANT!!! DO NOT alter the names of the people who are
listed next to each report, or their sequence on the list, in any way other than
what is instructed below in steps "1 through 6" or you will lose out on
majority of your profits.

Once you understand the way this works, you will also see how it
does not work if you change it.

Remember, this method has been tested, and if you alter, it will
NOT work!!! People have tried to put their friends/relatives names on all
five thinking they could get all the money. But it does not work this way.

Believe us, we all have tried to be greedy and then nothing
happened. So DO NOT try to change anything other than what is instructed. Because
if you do, it will not work for you. Remember, honesty reaps the reward!!!

1. After you have ordered all 5 reports, take this advertisement
and REMOVE the name & address of the person in REPORT # 5. This person has
made it through the cycle and is no doubt counting their fortune.

2. Move the name & address in REPORT # 4 down TO REPORT # 5.

3. Move the name & address in REPORT # 3 down TO REPORT # 4.

4. Move the name & address in REPORT # 2 down TO REPORT # 3.

5. Move the name & address in REPORT # 1 down TO REPORT # 2

6. Insert YOUR name & address in the REPORT # 1 Position. PLEASE
MAKE SURE you copy every name & address ACCURATELY! (Using the cut &
paste feature makes it easy)

===============================================================

*** Take this entire letter, with the modified list of names, and
save it on your computer. DO NOT MAKE ANY OTHER CHANGES.

Save this on a disk as well just in case you lose any data. To
assist you with marketing your business on the internet, the 5 reports you
purchase will provide you with invaluable marketing information which includes
how to send bulk e-mails legally, where to find thousands of free classified
ads and much more. Once you see the reports, you will no doubt agree that $25
is a bargain.

There are 2 Primary methods to get this venture going:

===============================================================
METHOD # 1: BY SENDING BULK E-MAIL LEGALLY
===============================================================

Let's say that you decide to start small, just to see how it
goes, and we will assume that you and those involved send out only 5,000
emails each. Let's also assume that the mailing receive only a 0.2% response
(the response could be much better but lets just say it is only 0.2%. Also many
people will send out hundreds of thousands emails instead of only 5,000
each).

Continuing with this example, you send out only 5,000 emails.

With a 0.2% response, that is only 10 orders for report # 1.
Those 10 people responded by sending out 5,000 email each for a total of 50,000.
Out of those 50,000 e-mails only 0.2% responded with orders. That's 100 people
who responded and ordered Report # 2.

Those 100 people mail out 5,000 emails each for a total of
500,000 e-mails. The 0.2% response to that is 1000 orders for Report # 3.

Those 1000 people send out 5,000 emails each for a total of 5
million e-mails sent out. The 0.2% response to that is 10,000 orders for Report #
4.

Those 10,000 people send out 5,000 emails each for a total of
50,000,000 (50 million) emails.

The 0.2% response to that is 100,000 orders for Report # 5.
THAT'S 100,000 ORDERS TIMES $5 EACH=$500,000.00 (half million).

Your total income in this example is: 1... $50 + 2... $500 + 3...

$5,000 + 4... $50,000 + 5... $500,000.... Grand Total= $555,550.00

NUMBERS DO NOT LIE. GET A PENCIL & PAPER AND FIGURE OUT THE WORST
POSSIBLESCENARIO AND NO MATTER HOW YOU CALCULATE IT, YOU WILL STILL MAKE
A LOT OF MONEY!

=================================================================

REMEMBER FRIEND, THIS IS ASSUMING ONLY 10 PEOPLE ORDERING OUT OF
5,000 YOU
MAILED TO WILL PARTICIPATE. Dare to think for a moment what would
happen if everyone or half or even one 4th of those people mailed 100,000
e-mails each or more? There are over 150 million people on the Internet
worldwide and counting. Believe me, many people will do just that, and more!

=============================================================
METHOD # 2: BY PLACING FREE ADS ON THE INTERNET
=============================================================

Advertising on the net is very very inexpensive and there are
hundreds of FREE places to advertise. Placing a lot of free ads on the
Internet will easily get a larger response. This is an excellent way to get
started if you are low on cash! You will, however, have a little less work if
you start with Method # 1 and add METHOD# 2 as you go along.

For every $5 you receive, all you must do is email them the
Report they ordered. That's it. Always provide same day service on all
orders.

This will guarantee that the email they send out, with your name
and address on it, will be prompt because they can not advertise until they
receive the report.

===================== AVAILABLE REPORTS====================

ORDER EACH REPORT BY ITS NUMBER & NAME ONLY. Notes: Always send
$5 cash (U.S. CURRENCY) for each Report. Checks NOT accepted. Make sure the
cash is concealed by wrapping it in at least 2 sheets of paper. On one of
those sheets of paper,*NEATLY* print or type the NUMBER & the NAME of
the Report you are ordering, YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS (plus if you have, an
alternate email address, at a different domain, if possible) plus your name and
postal address.

PLACE YOUR ORDER FOR THESE REPORTS NOW:

(Remember to check online or at your post office for the postal
rate for sending letters outside your country when applicable)

$$$$$$$$$ YOUR SUCCESS GUIDELINES $$$$$$$$$$$

Follow these guidelines to guarantee your success:

=== If you do not receive at least 10 orders for Report #1 within
2 weeks, continue sending e-mails until you do.

=== After you have received 10 orders, 2 to 3 weeks after that
you should receive 100 orders or more for REPORT # 2. If you did not,
continue advertising or sending e-mails until you do.

=== Once you have received 100 or more orders for Report # 2, YOU
CAN RELAX, because the system is already working for you, and the cash will
continue to roll in!

THIS IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER: Every time your name is moved down
on the list, you are placed in front of a different report.

You can KEEP TRACK of your PROGRESS by watching which report
people are ordering from you. IF YOU WANT TO GENERATE MORE INCOME SEND
ANOTHER BATCH OF EMAILS AND START THE WHOLE PROCESS AGAIN. There is NO LIMIT to
the income you can generate from this business!!!

=================================================================

THE FOLLOWING IS A NOTE FROM THE ORIGINATOR OF THIS PROGRAM:

You have just received information that can give you financial
freedom for the rest of your life, with NO RISK and JUST A LITTLE BIT OF
EFFORT. You can make more money in the next few weeks and months than you have
ever imagined. Follow the program EXACTLY AS INSTRUCTED. Do not change it in
anyway. It works exceedingly well as it is now.

Remember to email a copy of this exciting report after you have
put your name and address in Report #1 and moved others to #2 ......# 5 as
instructed above. One of the people you send this to may send out 100,000 or
more e-mails and your name will be on every one of them.

Remember though, the more you send out the more potential
customers you will reach. So my friend, I have given you the ideas, information,
materials and opportunity to become financially independent. IT IS UP TO YOU
NOW!

=================== MORE TESTIMONIALS======================

"My name is Mitchell. My wife, Jody and I live in Chicago. I am
an accountant with a major U.S. Corporation and I make pretty good money. When
I received this program I grumbled to Jody about receiving "junk mail." I
made fun of the whole thing, spouting my knowledge of the population and
percentages involved. I "knew" it wouldn't work.

Jody totally ignored my supposed intelligence and few days later
she jumped in with both feet. I made merciless fun of her, and was ready to
lay the old "I told you so" on her when the thing didn't work.

Well, the laugh was on me! Within 3 weeks she had received 50
responses. Within the next 45 days she had received total $ 147,200.00
..... all cash!
I was shocked. I have joined Jody in her "hobby."

Mitchell Wolf, Chicago, Illinois

================================================================

"Not being the gambling type, it took me several weeks to make up
my mind to participate in this plan. But conservative that I am, I decided
that the initial investment was so little that there was just no way that
I wouldn't get enough orders to at least "get my money back. "

I was surprised when I found my medium size post office box
crammed with orders. I made $319,210.00 in the first 12 weeks. The nice thing
about this deal is that it does not matter where people live. There simply
isn't a better investment with a faster return and so big."

Dan Sondstrom, Alberta, Canada

===============================================================

"I had received this program before. I deleted it, but later I
wondered if Ishould have given it a try. Of course, I had no idea who to
contact to get another copy, so I had to wait until I was emailed again by
someone else....11 months passed then it luckily came again... I did not delete
this one! Imade more than $490,000 on my first try and all the money came
within 22 weeks."

Susan De Suza, New York, NY

================================================================

"It really is a great opportunity to make relatively easy money
with little cost to you. I followed the simple instructions carefully and
within 10 days the money started to come in. My first month I made $ 20,560.00
and by the end of third month my total cash count was $ 362,840.00. Life is
beautiful, thanks to internet."

You think we do? I'm back to Kosher salt! It's tasty and it has no iodine.
Who needs a metalic taste in food? It might help it cling but it isn't that
good for us. In fact, I am allergic to the iodine and never knew that it came
from my salt. If I want iodine in my food ... I'll eat a lobster!

They need salt for good health and you can buy blocks of salt at feed
stores. You usually put the salt on a stake in the field and the animals
lick it as needed. If animals do not have salt blocks they eat soil with
salt in it which is why the deer can be seen licking the dirt road in some
places. Iodine on the other hand is added to salt for people to prevent
goiter. Animals if given too much loose salt can die from salt poisoning
but there is a blue loose salt for horses that used to be fed back in the
50's because it contains worm medicine and pig feed used to and might still
contain salt. Pigs have to have water with it when given that type of feed
or they can be in serious trouble. I believe James Herriots - spelling -
books had a story about that in one of them if anyone is familiar with them.

I grew up on a farm and the cows got salt licks on a regular basis because
they needed the minerals and not because they craved the taste or solely as
a treat. My father didn't have money to waste on treats for the livestock.
You're right about iodized salt being dangerous to animals, especially in
large quantities. A great grandmother of mine had a cow that ate a whole
bag of salt somebody left on a window ledge. The cow passed on and great
granny was pretty upset as it was one of her favorite milk cows. I'd hate to
see that happen to anyone else's pet or livestock.
As for the iodine, they put it in the salt to make sure nobody gets
goiter or has problems with their thyroid which can happen in cases of
iodine deficiency.
Hugs, tugs, and keep safe too.
