Hi Hap,

->  HN> I was! Went back the next day with Annie and I had the huli huli
->  HN> chicken....it was very good!

-> A couple of weeks ago Steve was yearningfor some Maui Mike's chicken.
-> This is a guy that set up in Wahiawa about 3 years ago, making good
-> money off the military. (G)  It is good chicken, fire roasted.

 HN> Probably was huli huli...that's some goood chicken!

No, not huli huli but very good.  Can't think of how to describe it--go
over to Oahu, up to Wahiawa and look for a little place on the right, a
street corner, California Ave (the main drag) and I've forgotten the
name of the other street.

->  HN> I think it will do fine!
 HN> ->
-> You will, of course, let us know how it comes out.
 HN> ->

 HN> Of course I will!

And we'll be here drooling.  Get it marinading NLT Monday if you're
serving it on Thursday.

->  HN> kids and her ex husband has started hitting the bottle very
 HN> hard...not
->  HN> a good sign at all.

-> Maybe group (family) therapy in the not too distant future?  Otherwise,
-> it doesn't sound good.  Does the police benevolent association have
-> anything like that available?

 HN> They do and it will certainly be offered, but I don't know if anyone's
 HN> ready to deal with it yet. I think the stress of being a police
 HN> officer's wife for all those years, and the mother of three police
 HN> officers as
 HN> well...I think she's just totally overwhelmed at the moment and
 HN> hopefully she'll pull out of it for the rest of the family's sake.

Give her a few month and re evaluate. I'd say after 6 months, if she's
not improved, take it to counseling.

->  HN> Usually it worked out very well, everyone knew my approach and came
 HN> to
->  HN> the table with an open mind.
 HN> ->
-> That's good, everybody knew in advance. Some people would not tell the
-> guests; that could be a big problem.
 HN> ->

 HN> I was well known for my Thanksgiving philosophy! I usually asked all
 HN> the people who were coming what their favorite and least favorite
 HN> foods were so I could tailor the meal so everyone would have a
 HN> (hopefully) terrific meal!

That's good.  We're going to a dinner party tonight to celebrate our
senior associate pastor's 50th birthday.  His wife called yesterday; she
was making the seating arraingements and wanted to know if either of us
is left handed.  I told her that I am so I'll probably get a corner
seat.  At the Wed. night supper this week, the menu was roast pork with
a plum sauce, lima beans and mashed potatoes.  (The head cook cooked up
a chicken breast with plum sauce for Steve.) I asked for no limas as
they are not one of my favorite vegetables and got given a hard
time--but no limas.  The head cook said she'd tasted some of the home
made plum preserves I'd given her for use in the meal, on toast--and
really enjoyed them.  She used mostly commercial ones but some from my
jar so she & the other cooks could enjoy the home made ones as they were
working.

-> OK, that was a bit of a misstep.  Could the leftovers be turned into
-> something like potato cakes or shepherd's pie topping to cut the blue
-> cheese flavor a bit?

 HN> Grin! There were lots of leftover blue potatoes! Everyday the flavor
 HN> would get "Bluer"! No matter what I put them with the only flavor that
 HN> came out was BLUE CHEESE! Now I like blue cheese...but this was like
 HN> being slapped in the tounge with a big blast of it! I'll not make that
 HN> dish again (grin)! chat with you soon

Blue cheese does have a certain air about it. (G)
