->  RH> I'd have to go hunting in Whole Foods or the like, probably.
-> 
-> Alternative is how we order it--on line.  But we order a case (6 boxes)
-> at a time.
->
Amazon sometimes has deals on things like that, and coupons.  It might be
worth keeping an eye out.
 
->  RH> Ever try agave nectar?  It has a lot less flavor than honey, but
it's

in
->  RH> my tea but hot water.
-> 
-> Never tried it. Plain yogurt usually gets fruit or jam around here.

I put jam in mine sometimes, and sometimes the other stuff.  Greek yogurt
with honey is traditional, but their honey is better than the stuff I can
usually get.
 
-> -> because of the seaonality of eggplant.  Besides, winter squashes will

-> 
->  RH> True.  I haven't done one in ages, although I did have to bake a
bunch

-> 
-> I'm getting caught up with other stuff.  Being gone for almost a week,
-> on short notice, leaves a lot to do the first couple of days home.
-> Supper was stuffed shells (I made) from the freezer and fruit that had
-> carried over the time gone in the fridge.

Last night's dinner for me was Lean Cuisine.  It was edible.  I got notice at
5PM that some friends from Pennsylvania were going to be in a town about 40
minutes away (highway) for a prayer meeting at 7PM.  No time to cook.  I
changed into better looking clothes, got some directions, shoveled grub in my
face and cleared out.  They needed me - there were six other people, and two of
the six lived there.  I spent the evening praying and rubbing knots out of
backs.  That's probably why they invited me. :-) 
 
-> -> That's started already.
-> 
->  RH> Ouch.
-> 
-> Part of the program here.  Not an easy program but well worth it.
-> 
Sounds like it. 
 
->  RH> I've got some sliced boneless country vegetable ribs in the fridge
at
->  RH> the moment.  They're dinner tomorrow.
-> 
-> Ours will be some chicken we marinaded & smoked earlier this summer,
-> cole slaw to be made tomorrow and whatever else I add to it.  Going to
-> make potato salad (only a single batch) this week too.

Hmmm, I just remembered that I have the remains of a free jar of prefab
German Potato Salad dressing in the fridge.  I wonder what that would taste
like on a green salad....
 
->  RH> were approaching civilization when you picked up an FM signal.  AM

-> 
-> Not neccessarily if you get skip. (G)

I've picked up signals from St Louis here in Connecticut, so you never know
with AM at night.  One of the Connecticut clear channel stations gets
picked up in Sweden sometimes.
 
-> ->  RH> America's Funniest Home Video would work too, and some of their

-> 
-> -> So we've seen but couldn't have afforded a camera at that time.
-> 
->  RH> Those were the days of expensive video cameras and cheap cars.
-> 
-> Depends on your definition of cheap.  Last cheap new one was the Honda
-> Civic CVCC wagon we bought in 1977 for @ $3,000.
-> 
That's cheap.  It's also more than my last car was worth.
