Hi Ruth,

 RH> > hockey and a bit of high school, especially in the fall
 RH> football season.

 RH> The paper here lives off sports scores, I think.  That
 RH> and the advertising sections.

Ours stopped carrying baseball box scores in the paper copy, now on line
only. They've gotten some negative feedback on that idea so we may see
them again.

 RH> >  RH> name increases.

 RH> >  RH> Sometimes.  Sometimes it's just forgotten.

 RH> > Probably depends on the name and the area where the
 RH> signature is found.
 RH> > Dean Smith would bring more money here than he would in
 RH> your area; Bob
 RH> > Cousy probably more money in your area than here.

 RH> Most likely.  He's tightly associated with the Celtics.
 RH> Johnny Peski(sp) is associated with the Red Sox.  He died
 RH> of old age about a year ago, but he'll always be part of
 RH> Sox history.  Outside of the area, no one knows the name
 RH> unless they know Fenway Park.

Enough people around the country do know of Fenway Park and its minutia.
Same with Shea Stadium or any other top level sports arena in any given
city. Somebody may even know how many hot dogs are sold on a given day,
in a given park.

 RH> > retired, she wants to try to do more baking. She won't
 RH> have to do the
 RH> > clean up job on it that we did when we first took it
 RH> tho.

 RH> In other words, she lucks out.  I just found a friend a
 RH> cast iron cleaning job, aka a sauce pan.  It was uncoated
 RH> and rusty.  A good mineral oil bath ought to fix that.

Plus elbow grease. Our younger daughter is really into cast iron now and
is assembling quite the collection.


 RH> > It's in pretty good shape, all things considered. It
 RH> was made in
 RH> > Yugoslavia and made 4 major moves with us.

 RH> In other words, Yugoslavia made better stuff than Yugos.

Yes, as our table is still going.

 RH> >  RH> Keeping my eyes peeled.

 RH> > I would, if I were there also. (G)


 RH> So far so nothing much.

Until you turn your back, then the deals/steals appear.


 RH> >  RH> Recipe? Can't say I used one.

 RH> > Think you'll do the same thing again some time or a
 RH> varient on it?

 RH> Probably.  It tasted good, it just didn't look pretty.

So tweak it to look pretty and people will chow down on it.


 RH> >  RH> I think he can manage that bit, but I wouldn't
 RH> want him
 RH> >  RH> boiling pasta.

 RH> > As long as he remembers to stir it from time to time
 RH> and keeps an eye on
 RH> > the time, he should be OK there. Making a sauce, not
 RH> yet but opening a
 RH> > jar of sauce and heating it in the microwave should be
 RH> do-able.

 RH> One hopes.  I made bread pudding the other day and
 RH> managed to let the milk boil over as I was scalding it.

Happens to the best of us.

 RH> >  RH> Found it too.:-)

 RH> > Good junk? We had a rainy day yesterday, most of today

 RH> Mostly junk junk.  New stuff.  Ecch.

Sigh!


 RH> but got to the
 RH> > farmer's market and church. Its been sweater/sweatshirt
 RH> (50s daytime,
 RH> > 30s and low 40s nighttime) weather for several days,
 RH> and is supposed to

 RH> It was actually warmer here this week, so of course today
 RH> was back into the fridge. At least it wasn't the freezer.

Hopefully those days are gone for a few months.
