 BF> Here's my only cooking invention, thrown together when my wife,
 BF> Shirley, left me without supper one night.  I was going to go out,
 BF> but I got too lazy to do that.

ya gots a problem, burt... unreadable characters... can you maybe adjust this
to use plain text characters only? like 1/2 and 1/4 and such instead of the
graphical symbols for them??

 BF> ---

 BF> My Stuff (non-alcoholic)

 BF>     1/2 medium Onion, sliced
 BF>     Sm can sliced mushrooms ( 4 ounces ) - reserve liquid
 BF>     About 1/4 pound of ground hamburg
 BF>     1/2 Package of dry gravy mix
 BF>     Some frozen green peas
 BF>     6 ounces RED Zinfandel (not white)

 BF> Dump onions, and beef into a large frying pan and cook until beef
 BF> is browned.  Add water to the mushroom liquid to make ½ cup,

to make what cup??

[trim]

 BF> Go drink the wine at the computer, watch the news, etc..   When
 BF> ready to eat (My Stuff was ready at the end of the last paragraph),
 BF> make a serving of instant potatoes, and three slices of nice brown
 BF> toast.  Put the potatoes and two slices of toast on a big plate. 
 BF> Put about ⅔ to ¾ of My Stuff on top.   Refill wine glass. 

put about how much to how much of My Stuff on top???

 BF> When the toast is gone and the potatoes are about ⅔ gone, get

about how much gone??

 BF> This is the only copy I could find.  [on the 'Net]   Someone has
 BF> diddled with the amounts to make it one serving - I think.  It
 BF> seems like I  used to use more than a quarter of a pound of burger,

ahhh... that's probably one of those sites that divides the amount of servings
into the ingredient measures so you can easily increase and decrease the
amounts used... i suspect it was that page using iso-8859 or utf-8 encoding
which caused the above pointed to numbers to be invalid...

 BF> Oops, I finally thought to check out the "Fido's Kitchen" published
 BF> by Dave Sacerdote from the "Fido Culinary Message Echos. Fido
 BF> Cooking Picnic (Northeast) 1996. And the Planning
 BF> Committee...Michael Loo Chairman, Dave Sacerdote, Lou and Jean
 BF> Ramsey, Robert Miles, and Dottie Theriault.      --bring back any
 BF> Memories to old timers?--- 

are you saying that you don't have meal master? shame on you! ;)
  
 BF> The amount of burger is correct, 'tho the wording was altered, and
 BF> there was further diddling.  I changed the on-line verson back to
 BF> my old recipe,  and took out someone else's attribution. 

that's the biggest problem out there... folks stealing others recipes and
calling them their own... that or someone will share someone else's recipe and
then a third party will misattribute it to the sharer...
