Hi Hap,

-> Let dead fish lie?  Not quite the same as letting sleeping dogs lie I
-> guess.

 hn> most likely a good solution! Was at a
 hn> wedding reception last night and had
 hn> whole BRANZINO, some sort of
 hn> European sea bass, boy was it gOod!!
 hn> Very delicate and it came boned out with
 hn> the heads still on! Also had Risotto with
 hn> braised squid and squid ink! Envision black
 hn> rice with very delicate and tasty squid
 hn> bits all mixed in...so black you could not
 hn> tell what you were eating (squid or rice)
 hn> until you had it in your mouth!  We had
 hn> so much and such a varied menu! We had

Sounds quite interesting--not the usual wedding reception fare.


 hn> to leave before the dessert courses arrived!

Any idea of what that was going to be?

-> -> We didn't mind it.  What was fun tho, was on our trip back east in
-> -> summer of 2000. We noticed so many shades of green to everything!

 hn> We don't mind the weather here, wet
 hn> and grey for most of the winter, sunny
 hn> and dry during the summers.

We're sort of adapting to NC weather. Steve is hoping this coming winter
won't be as cold as the one just past; he bundled up big time in the
house but was still cold a lot of the time.


-> -> The leaves are beginning to show hints of color here, breaking up the
-> -> green.  Hopefully we'll have as pretty a fall as we did last year.
-> -> Green is ok but I'm going into overload with it and want to get out to
-> -> the wide open (beige) spaces again.

 hn> Should not be too long now should it?
 hn> Stephen should be finished in another
 hn> year or so, yes?


We're projecting a December of 2012 graduation date as of now.  Depends
on if he takes classes in the J-term and summer school or not.


->  hn> I get bored with the beige after a while.
->  hn> I like the many greens we have here..
->  hn> Good thing everyone doesn't have to
->  hn> like what I like!

-> Same here. (G)  Also true about food too.

 hn> Amen!! Although I would like
 hn> it if Annie liked seafood a bit
 hn> more!

And I think sometimes that Steve wishes that I would like things a
little bit hotter or that I like some things that I really don't like.
Then too, at times I wish he liked some foods he doesn't like so we
balance each other out. (G)  But we both really enjoy seafood.




KA mixer
->  hn> Makes sense if he can get the parts!

-> Let's hope the need is never there.

 hn> Kitchen Aid's are pretty well build on the
 hn> whole and they do seem to last a long time!

We didn't have ours even 2 years before it needed repair.  Just long
enough to go out of wararanty.  But, it's working OK now.
