Hi Carol,

We like it much better for just about everything.  Evn my Asian style
cooking goes well with it.

 CS> Ohh, sorry.  Minor rant mode.  I got into being very 'recycle' in

 CS> Glad it works for you then!  Wth our extra chest freezer, space like

We've only got a 7 cubic foot freezer in addition to the fridge top one.
Anything to save a bit of space..........

Got take out Chinese from a new place last Thursday night.  As usual,
very generous portions so we put some in the fridge for lunch Friday
(and lunch for me a couple more days).  They packaged the entree and
fried rice in (sturdy) microwave safe containers, not the cheap stuff or
styrofoam a lot of places use.  I've now got a couple of nice microwave
dishes for when I make something in quantity that suits those dishes.
