Hi Janis,

 JK> I can believe that. :)

You just wait until they all descend on you this summer.

 JK> I'm sure you could tell that by his surprise at your knowing the
 JK> reference :)

Yes, and then he was surprised that I'd made a Jeopardy contestant pool.
He admitted to being on his high school's Quiz Bowl team; I told him I
was the only girl selected for ours one year. He said his team had no
girls. This echo gave me a knowledge of a correct response a couple of
weeks ago for the Jeopardy on line test. (G)

 JK> No :) I can't even imagine what it would have been like (g).

Hot, tiring and hard to be very creative.

 JK> > unexpected day off treatment today because the machine needed work;

 JK> That's a nice break, I'm sure.

Just a bit, but it helped recharge me.

 JK> able > to sleep in a bit.  And, instead of going out today when the

 JK> Steve to go out > over the week end when the crowd will be down.

 JK> That should be nice.. I'm hoping this "warmer"  weather sticks

We ended up going out. (G)


 JK> around.. it's supposed to hit 35F today (ooh.. heatwave (g)). it's
 JK> better than the other day when it was 1F.. brr.. Saturday it's

My parents wrote about the cold; makes me just as happy to be here this
time of year.


 JK> supposed to hit 38F.. almost almost springtime? :)  I bet the stores
 JK> around here will be crowded as the crowd enjoys the warmer temps..

Yes, and how many of them will be running around in shorts & t-shirts?


 JK> ===Zia Carmella's  Stuffed Peppers===
 JK> 4 large sweet  peppers,  cleaned, pickled or blanched salt (optional)
 JK> 6 tablespoons butter
 JK> 1/2 cup dry  breadcrumbs
 JK> 1/4 cup pine nuts
 JK> 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
 JK> 2 tablespoons raisins
 JK> 3 tablespoons dry sherry
 JK> 1 tablespoon brown sugar

The stuffing looks good in its own right, subbing chicken or beef stock
for the sherry.
