 NB>>> So the new gadget gives you a medium size rice cooker/crockpot,
 NB>>> a useful size for much of your cooking...  :)
 RH>> Very much so. Steve used it to make rice the other night as I was
 RH>> working on the rest of supper.
 NB>> Have you tried it yet with other than your basic brown rice...?

 RH> Not yet, what I made to go with the rice worked best with the basic
 RH> brown. I'll probably use the last of it in chicken soup, maybe
 RH> tomorrow, so we can cook up a batch of something different.

I'd imagine it would work just as well with the other sorts... but
trying it out wouldn't be a bad idea... :)

 RH>> We'll see, in time. Got a pie pumpkin, it's also cooked and stowed
 RH>> so we've got 5 more cups of pumpkin to use.
 NB>> That gives you plenty to play with... ;)   Pumpkin bread, or cookies,
 NB>> or muffins, maybe... ;)

 RH> Yesterday I made a pumpkin roll for Steve's birthday--subbed stevia
 RH> for half the sugar in the cake and filling. It's a bit less sweet but
 RH> better for both of us.

There's another use.... ;)   I've made pumpkin custard before...  :)

 RH> (garage)
 RH>>> Probably not til early next year tho.
 RH>> Time, and money. Running out of time this year, and can save the
 RH>> money for a bit longer.
 
 RH> That'll give us time to work on the desgn more also.
 
That too...  :)

 Angus Barn 
 NB>> I'd be inclined to check it out unless I was sure it wouldn't be an
 NB>> option at all... ;)  If it's totally unreasonable, that would take it
 NB>> right off the list, anyway...  ;)  Did your neighbor actually have an
 NB>> event there...?

 RH> I'm not sure; I think she had an event there. I'll do some checking,
 RH> maybe on line, and see what sort of prices they charge.
 
That might be a good plan... :)
 
 NB>> Our photogragher was a friend from college... somehow, he managed to
 NB>> lock all his good cameras into his trunk along, I think, with the
 NB>> key... so he took all the pictures with the one he'd intended to use
 NB>> only for the candids... and was so contrite about it he didn't charge
 NB>> us much if at all for the pictures...  They still were nice pictures...
 NB>> he's a good photographer... He, btw, was the friend who made the good,
 NB>> nay, excellent coffee that exposed my coffee allergy... ;)

 RH> My cousin was our photographer but, as I said, there were a lot of
 RH> other people shooting. Dad did it as a part time job in the 50s and
 RH> 60s; the first job he did, he realised (on the way to the reception) he
 RH> left the lens cap on for the photos at the church. The next job he got
 RH> was the bride's sister so I guess he got enough good shots otherwise
 RH> that the family wanted him to do the 2nd daughter.

Gremlins lurk everywhere...  (G)
 
 RH>> Let's hope so; it would be nice if you could tolerate it enough to
 RH>> enjoy things made with it. At least we now know what kind Brook's
 RH>> uses for their chicken.
 NB>> At least in their kitchen... it might be dumbed down for bottling...
 NB>> I did eat a full portion of the ones made with the Brooks bottled
 NB>> marinade at the picnic without repercussions...  But I avoided the
 NB>> chicken once the two halves had been combined into one...

 RH> Smart thinking, but maybe you can tolerate apple cider vinegar, even
 RH> if you can't have apples.
 
'Twould indeed be nice... ;) 
 
 NB>>>> Yup...  Maybe by then, there'll BE a Green Lobster chain... (G)
 RH>>> I'm not going to hold my breath on that one.
 NB>>> I wouldn't either... but one just never knows...  (G)
 RH>> There might be something just as far out, time will tell.
 NB>> Indeed.  :)

 RH> Somehow, I just don't think it would be as popular. (G)

One never knows...  tastes are totally unaccontable for...  ;)
