====================================================================
Hi Hap,

-> So rein in your drooling for a bit.  I'm looking forward to a taste
-> testing report.

 HN> Ooooh So am I!

At least I'll know what you're talking about if they have halpia, kalua
pork, lomi lomi salmon, etc.  I'll be able to "taste" in my mind most of
the stuff.

->  HN> everything the way they had been taught as children...and boy o boy

-> Should I look up the amounts of stuff I use?  Mine is a hybrid of
-> several recipes but it's mouthwatering good.

 HN> I'd certainly save it and give it a try to surprise Annie at some
 HN> point, for her it's one of the ultimate comfort foods!

OK, I'll get it checked out and get back on it in the next few days. I
will have to check a couple of cook books and then write down all that I
put in.  I'll be making sauerbraten in the next few weeks but not quite
sure when.

->  HN> german....and drink german beer...and eat german food and have
 HN> german
->  HN> desserts!

-> Nachturlich! (Dale, pardon the German but it fit the occaision.)

 HN> The people who bought the place seem to be surviving, but we seldom
 HN> see the ladies (we used to call them the "luftwaffe", because they'd
 HN> all swoop in and take the place over), and it's sort of sad because
 HN> they really were a happy group of people who filled the place with
 HN> laughter and smiles!

Well, they left nice memories. Is the new place offering hula lessons?
(G)

->  HN> LOL I still would not eat there! Last time I was in that region
 HN> (2002)
->  HN> what I would do is look for a small town...get off the interstate
 HN> and
->  HN> look for a local mom and pop sort of place...worked every time!
 HN> ->
-> Well, we wanted to get to NC at a decent time so we didn't want to go
-> wandering in the small towns. On the way up in July, we found a good bbq
-> place in Lumberton but knew we would be getting bbq Saturday on this
-> trip so decided to go for SOTB.  It took a while to get the food out

 HN> My advantage was that I was on no schedule so could afford to make
 HN> those little side trips. I will confess the smoke was really quite a
 HN> distasteful aspect, but I had to put up with it to get the good food.

With my asthma, I have to avoid smoke as much as possible.  It seems
tho, that a lot of places make you walk thru the smoking area to get to
the non smoking. The reverse should be the rule, not the norm as is now.

We knew we were just passing thru that area of South/North Carolina to
get to our final destination.  If we'd started an hour earlier or later
(or even half hour), we'd not have been at SOTB at lunch time.


-> -> better than the ones I had in Savanah last month at Carey Hilliards;
-> -> those were mush.

->  HN> Which is why I seldom order scallops any more!

-> I'd not had scallops for so long that I got them quite a bit our first
-> year or so here but am backing off them now and going for other seafood.
-> Steve had a nice flounder Sunday noon time in Swansboro.  My calamari
-> were good but the marinara sauce was outstanding!

 HN> Yummmmmm calamari! Maybe I'll go squidding again this year and get my
 HN> own! ->

Does Amanda eat any of her catch in her research work? (G) I tried
making calamari a few times but appreciate having someone else do the
work of cleaning the squid for me now.  We generally don't fry food at
home; getting it from time to time when we're out is more the rule.  On
this trip we had the fried flounder and squid fro one meal but had hush
puppies with several meals.  I'd have a couple only, not that I couldn't
eat more but I tried not to eat too much fried stuff.

-> -> More support players than on the ball team itself.
->  HN> ->
->  HN> Oh goodness yes!! But we cost the team a lot less money than they
 HN> do!
 HN> ->
-> They aren't paying for egos on the support staff. (G)
 HN> ->
 HN> You got that right! (grinning)!

I suspect the salaries of all the support staff may possibly equal that
of one or two players. (G) But, it's the guys making the mega bucks that
people come to see.
