Thanks for clearing up the acronyms.. Some I am very familiar with and some I wasn't quite clear on and was afraid to ask.

Oh....I thought when I mentioned DH I was talking about my dumb husband....(because I was) hummmm.
Heehee, I like that even better! That is ok, on some sites it means Designated Husband, so I think you can still use DH and think Dumb Husband, haha!

When I first saw DH posted on another site, that's what I thought it meant.

Now Joe, DH wouldnt be used as dumb husband if your wife was talking about you I'm sure!
I seen WYB on another site...it meant wouldnt you believe it....

MMF is in the recipe section .. it is wonderful!! I love the way it tastes, I love working with it
You're welcome BigEasyCakes and everyone else too. We were all new here once. BTW...love your avatar!
Haha, just when you think you know them all, someone will come up with a new one. Hhhmn, the first time I saw FBCT is thought it stood for Frozen Butt Can't Talk!

might be a stupid question, but was does OT stand for?? i've thought and thought....just can't figure it out
I find the list so helpful, myself being computer illiterate it really is a godsend, thank for doing that.
would like to ESBC to the list which is extra special buttercream. I posted the recipe on this site
oh i definatelly recommend using mmf!! i loved it. it was my first time with it this wkend and i have to admit that i think i might have fallen in love. i was s excited b how easy it was to make- use and eat right off the cake!! o need peeling it off like store bought fondant. and tastes like circus peanuts....not cardboard.. haha not to even mention the money i saved by making it and not buying it..i saved about 16.oo for a dbl batch compared to a large box of wiltons fondant.

What about DW=Dear Wife and for alternative lifestyles what about LP=Life Partner? We cant leave anyone out. LOL Have a great day everyone. MC
Since I am always lerking around the the "Unanswered Topic" section, I wanted to add the following:
OPBBTL = Old Post Brought Back To Life
I noticed that if it is a post by a new member and it doesn't get any response...they hardly ever post again...and that's sad!
Har, I'd just seen someone post about how their hubby had gone beyond the call of duty with some cake task and thought DH was "Dedicated Husband". I suppose that fits in most places, though. Right?
If I might suggest a couple more "Dears":
DW: Dear Wife (already suggested)
DGF: Dear GirlFriend and
DBF: Dear BoyFriend (not everybody is married to their sweetie)
SO: Significant Other of either gender, married or not, more all purpose
From other forums I frequent:
FWIW: For what it's worth
ASAIK: As far as I know
IIRC: If I recall correctly
Zombie: old, long-dead thread brought back to life. (OK, so that's not an acronym.)
