Ärende: How does your garden grow?
==================================
Hi Ruth,

->  RH> Definitely.  You'll only have half the homework, for one.

-> One third the homework with one class instead of 3. Two classes in the
-> spring.

 RH> One half when the prof figures out he can load it on.

No, BWI classes are fairly reasonable--if you take one at a time. I took
3 last fall, 2 week end ones and a 7 week one. The 2nd week end one came
part way thru the 7 week class so I had a busy time of it for a while. I
was also sewing for Santa at the time.


->  RH> Yep, and an open floor plan with a big table.

-> One of these days I might have something like that. Not holding my
-> breath tho; it'll happen if and when it's supposed to happen.

 RH> You'll need a big table for quilting, if nothing else.

And for having all the grand kids over to bake cookies or whatever.
Making pasta would be fun with them too--Robert is definately old enough
to help, Sarah can help some, but not as much as big brother.

->  RH> Or one of those dorm-size fridges.  Lots of European apartments

-> Even full sized houses don't have big fridges, stoves, etc. My "Aunt"
-> Hannah (probably actually a cousin, if you traced it back) had a big
-> house. The kitchen was a big room but had small (by American standards)
-> appliances. But her maid/cook could put together some really great
-> meals! Seems like a lot of newer American houses are being built with
-> small (spacewise) kitchens but with full size appliances. Something
-> wrong with this picture?

 RH> Very.  Of course, some places in Manhattan don't have kitchens at all,
 RH> just a microwave and a dorm fridge if that much.

Like some condos "made" from hotels--small space, large amount of money
for one and no decent kitchen.

->  RH> Most likely.  If you don't know ask ... but deep-fried tarantulas
->  RH> might be good...if they're edible.  Deep-fried locusts, I'm told,

-> I've not had either, but should be getting some Mexican cooking over the
-> next few weeks. (G)

 RH> Maybe you can get some then and report back.

Will try. Went to a place called Costa Vida yesterday, sort of like
Quodoba's, Chipolte's, Mo's Southwestern Grill (order and they assemble
it fresh), a couple of steps above Taco Bell and better tasting. Only
gripe Steve has is the rice is cilantro-lime; you know how he feels
about cilantro.  Wendesday a friend at the SBC Annual Meeting suggested
a kiosk that served a piece of of Navajo Fry Bread with refried beans,
cheese, rice, salsa and sour cream. That was good!
