Hi, Janis-

All it takes is one well-misplaced rm -rf and poof, there goes the
neighborhood.  I'm guilty of that back in the early days when I was running
Slack and no one told me to not run as root... :)

I've noticed less here in North America but prevalent in other zones...but
then again, it's been a /long/ time since I've pulled anything outside of Z1.

Maura and I went to The Flying Biscuit Cafe in Little Five Points (an old,
artsy, eclectic neighborhood in Atlanta).  TFBC is very famous for its
biscuits (thick and not yeasty), its grits (made with heavy cream) and its
bakery, but the food there is terrific.  A few weeks ago, Maura and I went to
have lunch, but they serve breakfast all day, so we had omlets.

I had this great three-egg omlette with cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, organic
(?) sausage and my favorite, asparagus!  SO GOOD. :)  Maura had a salmon
omlette, similar to mine, but with salmon and no asparagus.  The meal came
with grits and a biscuit.  It was so filling that I didn't eat for nearly nine
hours...and I normally eat every two to three hours.

If you're ever in the Atlanta area, you should try them.  TFBC has won several
local "Best Of" awards in multiple years.  If you do go, go to the Midtown
(Little Five Points) location-it's the original location and it's funky, cozy
and I think has the best food.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

      Title: Little Cheddar Biscuits
 Categories: Cheese, Chilies, Loo, Biscuits, Quickbreads
      Yield: 8 Servings

      2 c  Unbleached Flour
      1 ts Paprika
      1 c  Butter; Room Temperature
      1 ts Worcestershire Sauce
      1 ts Mustard; Dry
    1/4 ts Baking Powder
     10 oz Cheddar; Sharp, Grated

  Combine the flour, dry mustard, paprika and baking powder in a medium
  bowl. Beat the butter, either by hand or with an electric mixer at
  medium speed, until light and fluffy.  Slowly beat in the cheddar
  cheese and Worcestershire sauce.  Gradually add the flour mixture,
  stirring with a fork, until well blended. On a lightly floured
  surface, shape the dough into a long roll about 1 3/4-inches in
  diameter. Wrap in plastic wrap or foil. Place on a platter and
  refrigerate for at least 2 hours, better overnight. Preheat the oven
  to 325 degrees F. Slice the dough about 1/3 inch thick. With your
  hands, roll each slice into a ball. Flatten slightly and place on an
  ungreased baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake 8 minutes in the
  preheated oven. Biscuits will only brown slightly on the bottom.
