Hello, Dave.

Johnny Cash died of complications of untreated diabetes if memory serves.  He
knew he was diabetic but chose not to seek treatment.  I've always been
off-and-on about my diabetes and I'm aware that is not the way to be.  I think
I just need to force myself to take the five minutes to check my blood sugar.
I'm doing better about my diet and wish I could find time to use that
wonderful, expensive gym that I'm paying for out the nose at school.

I will say, in my defense, that with being in school, I have gotten in better
shape.  ETSU sits on a very hilly campus (with the "high" end being the south
end, where my department's building resides, and my other classes at the north
or "low" end; I do a -lot- of walking) and I get in plenty of exercise.  I'm
trying to get back to doing 10,000+ steps a day too.

But yeah, diabetes isn't something I'd wish on anyone, even my "worst enemy".

I understand that. :)  But I have had the terrible displeasure of being
completely alone on the holidays, when my closest family was 2000 miles away,
and no one locally around to be with (and no car to boot).  That memory is
still very poignant in my mind even though that was now over ten years ago.  So
to try to save a friend or two that discomfort and lonliness, I'd like to have
them over for a few hours so they can enjoy themselves amongst friends if they
can't be with family on Thanksgiving.

    3/4 lb Ground meat (beef, pork,
           -turkey)
      1 cn Black beans, drained
      1    Packet TACO seasoning mix
    1/2 lb Shredded cheddar cheese

  cooled to room temperature, stir in cheese and onions.

  TO MAKE WON TON:

  Place a teaspoon of the mixture onto the middle of each won ton
  wrapper. Wet the edges of the wrapper with water, fold the wrappers
  over to form triangles, and seal the edges, pinching them together.
  Moisten bottom side of LEFT corner and upper side of RIGHT corner.
  Fold left corner up toward you, and fold right corner over left; seal
  together. Fry several won tons at a time in hot oil (375 degrees F)
  until golden brown. Drain well on paper towels. Serve with fresh
  Mexican salsa or guacamole.

  Makes approximately 100 won tons.
