 NB>> BTW, speaking of errant memory and such... if/when you see Benita, you
 NB>> could tell her from me she was right about Westminster being on the
 NB>> east side of Rochester, near my parents' old home...  I was getting
 NB>> confused with Warrington in our neighborhood

 ML> OK. I am in touch with her in only the most cursory way.

But probably before I'd see her again... ;)   Unless she comes up this
way...  ;)  

 NB>> tasty enough even so.  An addition to the burgers (and perhaps to the
 NB>> brats as well) was Steve's smoked cheeses, which we also had occasion
 NB>> to sample straight out...  :)   IIRC, there was swiss and cheddar,
 NB>> maybe another as well...?
 ML> Muenster. I don't recall the Cheddar.

Yes, I remembered the Muenster as soon as Steve mentioned it to me...
the Cheddar wasn't smoked, but was served along with the swiss and
muenster... 

 ML>> I didn't notice Burt's bread. Speaking of which, one of his
 ML>> bees stung me yesterday. I was at a gas station waiting to
 ML>> fill the tank, and zoom, a bumblebee came up (according to
 ML>> Lilli) and stung me and then crash-landed on my seat, whence
 ML>> I shooed it off, not being that vindictive a fellow. I began

 ML>> the cashier gave me some ice wrapped in paper towels. Result,
 ML>> not much inflammation, and what there was went away quickly.
 
That sounds more like a yellow jacket than a bumblebee... but thankfully
your damage was minimal...  :)  Zyrtec and ice can be lifesavers... :)

 ML>> Nancy chose the so-called beef kebob, which is a generous
 NB>> No, I had the moussaka, like you did... Steve had the beef kabob...
 NB>> I wouldn't have minded a little more eggplant, either, but it was on
 NB>> the whole quite nice.  
 ML> Ah, but wasn't it you who gave me a taste of it? Must have
 ML> been on your first-timer plate.

It was indeed one of the goodies on the first-timer plate.  That's
probably what confused you. 

 ML>> Someone had pastitsio - Gail I think - that was/is partway
 ML>> between lasagne and moussaka. Aside from the big carb hit
 ML>> it was pretty good.
 NB>> Not Gail, she was still under the weather and hadn't come... that was
 NB>> Shirley... :)  That had caught my eye, but I generally prefer moussaka
 NB>> to pastitsio, so went with it...  :) 
 ML> As it seems, nobody had the stuff; again it must have shown
 ML> up on your freebie.

That one wasn't on the freebie, that was Butch... she'd ordered it, and
gave you some of hers in exchange for a bit of your moussaka...
