I thought word of Hap giving away fistfuls of baseball
cards would have a major impact on ticket sales!

 -> If I have a yen for caviar and can't get someone to

 -> is likely to be ring baloney or scrapple or at least
 -> something more attainable.
 HN> sure, that's pretty much what we all do!
 HN> but it doesn't cure the yen for caviar (grin)

My point is that I'm distractible enough so that it would
do so. Actually, I've had a yen for caviar exactly once (1x)
in my life. It was on a flight from Milan to Washington, and
I just bought an ounce of Sevruga off the duty-free cart and
ate it.

 -> Do you have any other good RBI men? I'd be leery of
 -> putting a .250 hitter cleanup.

Wishful thinking that someone of his advanced age is going
to bat closer to lifetime than to the last couple years'
numbers. Unless he starts taking 'roids.

 it will be

I'd put Griffey 3rd if his legs are working,
5th if not.

 Categories: Beverages, Syrups, Gifts, Herbs, Sauces
      Yield: 1 bottle

  3 1/2 c  -Water
    1/4 c  Rosemary, fresh; chopped
     15    Juice oranges
      5 c  Sugar

  "This syrup is delicious with fruits, in a marinade for chicken or
  pork, or as the basis of a cooling drink." (add water or sparkling
  water to dilute).

  In a non-aluminium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Pour over the
  rosemary and let steep for 1 hour. Strain.
  Remove the zest from 5 of the oranges and set aside, then squeeze the
  juice into a large bowl. Set a rack over the bowl and arrange the
  zests on the rack.
  Combine the rosemary infusion and the sugar mixture in a saucepan and
  bring to a boil over high heat, boiling until you have a heavy syrup
  about 20 minutes. Pour the boiling syrup over the zests and let it
  drain into the juice. Return the juice mixture to the saucepan. Bring
  quickly to a boil, remove from the heat, and return to the bowl to
  cool. Skim, then bottle and store in the refrigerator.
