 ML>> Ruth came up with some broccoli slaw that was pretty good,
 ML>> considering it was vegetables. The slaw had raisins, sunflower
 ML>> seeds, bacon, and sweet salad dressing.
 NB>> One of her specialties... and what we had was leftovers from their VT
 NB>> cookings... just enough for a taste each, pretty much...  :)
 ML> Different perspectives - I thought it was a full serving's
 ML> worth per person.

I'm pretty sure some people would have normally had a larger serving
than what there was... ;)

 ML>> Anyone wonder what Doritos Roulette is/are? It's ordinary nacho
 ML>> flavor Doritos with the occasional zinger that is, according to
 ML>> the bag, "very hot." I suppose some of them are hotter than
 ML>> others - at least I convinced myself of that. 
 NB>> I never got anything particularly hot, just some that had a little
 NB>> more spice than others... but then, I didn't eat a lot of them...  ;)
 ML> I had the urge for something hot in the middle of the night
 ML> one night and finished them off - the ones at the bottom
 ML> were spicier of course. Nobody noticed (or at least commented)
 ML> that they were all gone the next day.

Well... you had announced in the morning the fact that you'd finished
them off during the night, so there wasn't anything to comment on... ;)  
 
 ML>> Spicy snack mix from Nancy, peas, sesame sticks, peanuts,
 ML>> spicy peanuts. This was too spicy for Ruth but okay for the
 ML>> rest of us.
 NB>> Only thing really spicy at all in that were the spicy peanuts... there
 NB>> were some "spicy" sesame sticks in there, too, but they were only a
 NB>> touch spicier than the regular sesame sticks...
 ML> I can't tell the difference; Ruth finds them unbearable.
 ML> That's the range of palates represented on this echo.

She claims that she didn't even try the spicier peanuts, only a couple
of the regular ones off the top, and avoided it more from not wanting
extra carbs for the week... ;)  And I wouldn't have said that even the
red (cayenne) peanuts were all that spicy even, only that they were the
only thing that were noticeably spicy in the mix...  The siracha peas
that Gail bought at the Potsdam Co-op were spicier than even those... 
BTW, I think those got forgotten in the writeups... the leftovers came
home with me...
