Hi Michael,

 RH> Same with Philadelphia. When I was there as a kid with my family, we
 RH> were horrified by the taste of the water. Came from the Delaware
 RH> River, a branch of it flows not that far from where my folks live and

 ML> I've drunk Philly water - it's sort of ... ripe. Reminded me of
 ML> the Benton County, Arkansas water when the lake turns over in
 ML> the fal,l and all those delicious algae, dead leaves, and similar
 ML> detritus come to the surface.

Just what you want to drink. (G)


 RH> I think the woozy and disoriented feeling is normal, just with some
 RH> people it takes longer for the system to clear of the feeling. I don't
 RH> like anesthetics as a whole, because of various not so great reactions
 RH> to them. No trouble waking up but other side effects.
 ML> Normal, as you know, doesn't mean you have to like it.
 RH> I know, and I do not want to have any more surgery if at all possible.

 ML> I prefer few drugs (making me somewhat different from many of my
 ML> colleagues and friends) and even fewer procedures; I guess we
 ML> have similar attitudes here.

I'd rather not have to take drugs but I do, for several conditions. But,
I've dropped the biggest one, less than a year after starting it because
I don't need it any more.

 ML>   We tried the new Buffalo Brothers Wing & Pizza place
 RH> for lunch, both got the tenders but different sides.
 ML> I've not been there but have eaten at Buffalo Wild Wings, which
 ML> I guess would be similar.
 RH> We went to a BWW with Rachel & David in Charleston some years ago.
 RH> IIRC, they were heavy on wings, with a lot of different sauces.

 ML> That's my recollection as well, with burger options and all
 ML> the standard bar appetizers that come from the frozen section
 ML> at Sysco. Lots of kinds of beer, which is as much a plus in my
 ML> book as it is a minus in yours - not enough to make me eager to
 ML> go back, but if I'm in a car of hungries and thirsties and we
 ML> pass one, I won't veto it. I'll have maybe just a beer and a
 ML> container of mango habanero sauce (which is not actually bad).

If we were with others who waned to go, we'd go and find something on
the menu we could deal with. Skip the beer and heavy carb bar food,
maybe go with some plain wings and (if they had any) salad greens.


 ML>       Title: Kiwifruit Shortbread Tart
 ML>  Categories: Live!, Cakes, Fruit
 ML>       Yield: 4 Servings

 ML> MMMMM---------------------SHORTBREAD CRUSTS--------------------------
 ML>     1/4 c  Sugar
 ML>       1 c  All purpose flour
 ML>     1/4 lb Cold unsalted butter

 ML> MMMMM-------------------------LIME CREAM------------------------------
 ML>       1 c  Sour cream
 ML>     1/4 c  Sugar
 ML>       2 ts Fresh lime juice
 ML>       4    Firm ripe kiwifruits

Wonder how Stevia for baking would work out here instead of sugar. I
used it in the pickled eggs & beets I did a couple of weeks ago, seemed
to work OK there. They're all gone and no mention of any adverse taste
or effects from Steve. I've not tried it in anything like cookies or
cakes yet.

Catch you later,
