Whoops!  I thought you were talking about Roslind's impression of you.

Who reformed you?  Was it a good woman?
 
 GJ> gave her the most scope for reformation.
 JW> Roslind felt no need to change me, except for that four drink thing.

Someone else had done it for her.

My second wife's children reformed me, and vice versa.  (Small girl
looking at me severely, saying, "Dad, are you drunk again?!  Very
effective!)  Now, a generation later, same step-daughter will say to
her son, "Ryan, get Lolo another beer."

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05
 
      Title: Mother and Child Donburi
 Categories: Rice, Japan, Chicken
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
      2 c  Long grain rice
      1 c  Water
      4    Eggs, beaten
      1 c  Cooked chicken, cubed
      2    Scallions
      1 ts Soy sauce
 
  Put water in steamer first, and start steamer.  Add rice after 5
  minutes. Let steam for 8 minutes.  Pour eggs in depression made with
  wooden spoon, steam for 5 minutes more.  Add chicken cubes and
  chopped scallions. Let warm for 10 minutes.  Sprinkle with soy sauce.
  This dish is very popular for a fast and filling lunch in Japan but
  is seldom on menus because there is no challenge to cooking it.  I
  learned about it from a Japanese roommate of one of my girlfriends.
  
  THe basic combination seems to be rice, chopped vegetables, and
  chopped cooked meat, sprinkled with either chopped scallions or
  grated daikon and soy sauce.
  
  There is an entire class of recipes in Japanese cuisine called
  donburi. This consists of eggs, vegetables, and some (cooked) meats,
  steamed on top of cooking rice and served with a variety of sauces.
