Hi Dave,

 DD> My criteria are A) a price point that I am willing to pay and B) NOT
 DD> MADE IN CHINA. A guy I know told me he had seen a good price on a
 DD> freezer on the Alibaba web site. I reminded him that Alibaba will
 DD> forever be associated (in my mind anyway) with the 40 thieves from
 DD> Arabian literature.

 RH> I've not heard of that site, but yes, I can see where the association
 RH> might turn you off from using it.

 DD> Alibaba is the Chinese version of Amazon -- on steroids. I try to
 DD> avoid enriching the 800 pound gorilla where it is possible so to do.

Very good reason to avoid it; thanks for the warning. (G)

 RH> We did chicken with no garlic, just lemon pepper, on the rotisserie the
 RH> other night. Tonight's pork and fresh veggie stir fry had a bit of
 RH> garlic powder in, as well as 5 spice powder, extra ginger, white
 RH> pepper, orange peel and sesame oil. Just a bit of soy sauce also, no
 RH> more added at the table. No left overs.

 DD> I do lemon-pepper on a lot of things now that I have found a
 DD> lemon-pepper mix that does not list salt as the first ingredient. My
 DD> version is a locally made/mixed thing from Humphrey's Market.

Sounds good; when you come to next year's picnic, bring samples. I could
probably furnish shaker jars if they sell it in bulk. What we currently
have is Frontier brand, from Whole Foods. This is the salt free blend,
ingredients are: Lemon peel, black pepper, garlic, onion, citric acid.
It's distributed by Frontier Natural Products Co-Op, P.O.Box 299,
Norway, IA, 52318. It would be interesting to compare the 2.

 DD>       Yield: 4 Servings

Looks good, and easy enough to add varients to the theme, in fish,
bread, seasonings, etc.
