=============================
Howdy Michael!

->  ->  HN> No, she doesn't mind the smell of fish, or seafood in

->  -> Funny, I do.
->  HN> The smell of fish gone bad bothers me but otherwise no, and if it's
->  HN> really  really fresh it often has no smell at all!
-> 
-> Freshwater fish, true, just mud. In my experience, though,
-> marine animals at best smell of the sea (a smell I can take
-> or leave) and at worst like the polluted sea.
-> 
I can't say that I have really noticed much of a smell from really fresh 
fish...and I've had it as fresh as it can possibly be.

-> 
-> Mmmm, TSP.
-> 
Hummphhhhhhhurgh!

->   (gag)! They also said to look and choose
->  HN> only "dry" scallops  (evidently they are marketed as "Dry scallops")
->  HN> and you'll do much better with  the taste and quality you get.
-> 
-> Drys are very hard to find these days, and even the ones you

I haven't tried to loacate them and Anne and I have not been doing much 
eating out these past few months, so I've had no chance to order any either.

->  HN> Back in the 60's I  used to LOVE scallops
-> 
-> Back in the 60s, 70s, 80s, I used to love scallops.
-> 
I had them in the 70's and 80's and still enjoyed them...but the love affair 
was waneing even then.

->  HN> there is a bakery in Olympia that makes Wonderous Challah ( it 
tastes 
->  HN> wonderful, I can't compare it  to other challahs as I've never had any
->  HN> other!)
-> 
-> Tastes like eggs and is a little sweet. Partway to cake, you know?
-> And quite nice, for bread.
-> 
Yup, that's the stuff.

->  HN> I always added a teaspoon  of vanilla to the half and half when I 
made
->  HN> them.
-> 
-> When making frog toast, which I've done more than you'd expect,
-> I add vanilla and cinnamon.
-> 
you make it then, do you eat it as well?

-> I dono about the commentary in caps in this recipe, and I
-> think that there should be double the egg (maybe the oil
-> makes up for some egg), but on the whole this looks like
-> a decent recipe.

I'd tend to agree with 6 cups of flour I'd go with two eggs as well!
