Hi Nancy,

 NB> that's  NB>> about two weeks before you need to be in VT...?  Plenty
 NB> of time for  NB>> Steve's family, connecting with us (and maybe meet
 NB> the church family),  NB>> and spending time in M'ville area with your
 NB> dad and brother...

 RH> Sounds good, we'll figure things out as we get closer to the time we
 RH> leave.

 NB> I'll be out of touch for the first half of July (although I will have
 NB> my cellphone with me, and it works for sure at the Pond and probably
 NB> at the family camping as well)... but no Fido, e- or snail mail while
 NB> I'm away. But I should be back in the loop after the 16th or so...

We'll be taking off probably about a week after you get back. But, I
mentioned to Steve about going to (probably Sunday evening the 26th)
service with you, and got an affirmative.


 RH> And, I'm figuring that a cauliflower crust will be tried at the
 RH> pond; I will sample it. Just means that I won't have to try making one
 RH> down here to see if it's something we want to eat on a regular basis
 RH> or not.

 NB> And here I thought you were adamantly sure that you weren't even going
 NB> to try it on your own... ;)

I probably won't make it, but like durian, worth a try.

 RH> Steve isn't that fond of the vegetable anyway, so, even tho I
 RH> like it, I don't serve it very often.

 NB> Ya never know... he might actually like it as a crust... (G)

I'm not holding my breath at this point.


 RH> We saw some bright yellow ones at Lowe's tonight, quite a contrast
 RH> to the normal white ones stacked beside them.

 NB> They probably don't taste all that different, though...

Probably not. We bought brocciflower several times in the early 90s when
it was popular, tasted a lot like cauliflower.

 NB> might  RH>> leave some in M'ville to pick up on the way south.
 NB>  NB>> That could work... :)  Tuck them away in the freezer there... ;)

 RH> It would keep me from going overboard on them. I'd just have to tell
 RH> my brother "Hands off, they're mine!" so he wouldn't raid the stash.

 NB> What, he likes caramel MWs, too...?  ;)  Put them in a ziplock, with
 NB> bold notation... "These belong to Ruth!!"  :)

AFAIK, he's not into the caramel MWs. He might still be up at Boy Scout
camp when we come thru initially.

 NB>  RH>> BTW, I did find the cook book I'd earmarked for a (former)
 NB> neighbor,  RH>> haven't delivered it yet.
 NB>  NB>> Have to do that before it gets mislaid again...  (G)

 RH> It's right out in the open, in an obvious place. Just have to figure
 RH> out when a good time to get it over to her would be, given her
 RH> schedule and ours.

 NB> True... you are much more settled now than when it got mislaid
 NB> before... a lot less shuffling things from one place to another whilst
 NB> opening box after box...  :)  Now, just to get the schedules to
 NB> mesh...  ;)

Probably some Saturday when she's off work and we're running other
errands in town.

Catch you later,
