Nah... no need to feel guilty...  ;)   I just fixed a batch for us,
Saturday night... probably would have been enough for three, but there
were just two of us eating them... I think we did ok... ;)  Just freshly
steamed in the microwave, nothing added... with a couple of salmon
burgers from Wegmans I found hiding in the freezer (a little the worse
for age, but still not bad... [g]).

Yup.  I'd say you are getting a better deal even if it is a little more
upfront.  :)

We got dumped on for 24 hours or so from TU pm to WE pm... I barely
managed to get my car out of our driveway but did manage to, and hubby
came over and shoveled off her ramp and the end of that drive, so we did
ok after all.  The TH appointment was in the afternoon, hubby came by a
little before pickup time and shoveled things off again... Today is
sunny and COLD!, it was -6F this morning according to the radio... it's
in the teens now... and supposed to get to about 20...  ;)  So far we've
had a snowier than normal December, and looks like January's following
suit... but it was mostly concentrated in the first two weeks last
month, and this last week for this month... With it cold, the snow is
light and fluffy, and not all that hard to clear away, at least...  :)
