Yup! Came out well. Had one for lunch today, nuked after I made it and tucked
some in the fridge.

CS>> Nifty!  in my case the 'aged UFO' tends to become dog treats (since i

Hehe no worries!  I am still with rescue dogs and cat and sadly one rescue dog
may not have long left.  She has breast cancer and we think it spread to the
other this past week. Vet surgeon out this week so she's slated for next week
for a mastectomy.  We adopted her at age 14 (best lowest guess of the vets) 2.5
years ago and so she's now 16.5 but may be closer to 20.

I hope you all do not hate me, but i'm willing to put in 1,500$ (plus the 450$
already spent on tests) for a single mastectomy but not 3,000$ if they double
it on a sweet lady who's not got long left.  I need that to keep Charlotte in
college and can't do both.

Heheh we laugh that i can't do italian but it's really so many other culinary
influances here that morfs it.  I've noted my main 'morf' tends to eit6her bit
of tex-mex or arabic (or both) when I try 'italian'.

Ruth is probably laughing and shaking her head at me.

 
CS>> I am currently staring (or being stared at by) a fairly large frozen

CS>> Humm.  If i chop some more bok choy, mix it with rice and stove top

CS>> Humm!

RH> Sounds pretty tasty...  Cuisine chez Shenk..  :)

We shifted.  Charlotte and i had a fruit tooth tonight so we packed it with
orange bits, rice, hot-sweet bannana sauce, and lightly brushed with oil then
dusted with cinnimon, nutmeg and a bit of sugar.  Perfectly carmelized! Major
yummie factor.
