 RH>> Yes, it does taste good, especially toasted.
 NB>> I'm not at all surprised... So, did you get the recipe written
 NB>> down...?

 RH> Not yet, been busy with other things. It's just a small riff on what I
 RH> usually do so I'm not too concerned with preserving it.

You might just end up doing it again under similar circumstances, after
all...  ;)

 NB>>> Why not use the crusts from this in the batch, though...?  I could
 NB>>> see not doing some things that were quite different, but this
 NB>>> shouldn't be that much different than the straight whole wheat...
 RH>> Just a personal quirk; I've never done anything but 100% whole wheat

 NB>> Ah.  I can see not using rye with caraway, or similar, in your
 NB>> regular bread crumbs...  But this sounded like it might not be that
 NB>> dissimilar...

 RH> I prefer to keep the general use crumbs pure, been doing so for many

Tradition... ;)

 NB>>> Gives you a few no-fuss meals already done... ;)
 RH>> At least one full, the broccoli salad actually went for 2. I put some
 RH>> of the sloppy joe into the freezer, had the rest for supper on Monday
 RH>> with the broccoli. Had the last of the broccoli tonight with smoked
 RH>> ribs and Hartley's chips--pretty much a no fuss meal.
 NB>> That makes two no-fuss meals out of it, anyway... and the part you
 NB>> stowed in the freezer will make a fairly quick meal or more later.. :)

 RH> That's the plans. Last night's supper was deconstructed taco salad
 RH> using the extra meat mix from what we cooked in July, then froze. Had
 RH> just a bit of the meat mix left over last night so combined it with
 RH> some potatoes, onions and peppers we'd grilled (in a packet) a few days
 RH> before. I heated that briefly in a frying pan tonight, then added some
 RH> beaten eggs, and when almost set, some cheddar cheese. Cleaned out the
 RH> fridge some and made a good supper of it.

Finally finished up the saved bits... ;)  I heard a news story about how
the powers-that-be are going to try to reduce food waste by 50% by, I
think it was, 2030... ;)  Some of our households would find that hard to
do, since we already try to use it all, and have little waste... and
kitchen scraps going into compost already... or soup... (G)
 
 NB>>> You usually keep it at church as a ready-to-hand condiment,
 NB>>> then...?
 RH>> One bottle, yes, with warnings that children shouldn't use it without
 RH>> parental OK.
 NB>> Writ BIG, no doubt...  (G)  Lets adults also know to be cautious with
 NB>> it... :)

 RH> I drew a skull & crossbones on one bottle. (G)
 
Hey, it isn't /exactly/ poison... (G)
 
 RH>> We also keep a bottle at home. Both will be replenished
 RH>> probably later this week.
 NB>> Making a new batch...?  Or do you have a larger container already
 NB>> made up to refill the smaller bottles...?

 RH> Making a new batch as it's best made in small amounts. We sent Deborah
 RH> a pint jar of it when she was deployed--it went over BIG!

Ah, ok...  And anything to spice up rations would go over quite well,
I'm sure...  :)
