Hi Nancy,


 NB>  NB>> I see we got a large dump of different dates from you finally...

 RH> The log jam broke, finally!

 NB> Finally!!  :)

Now I'm just trying to keep caught up on a day to day or every other day
basis.

 NB>  RH>> It was lunch time, both times I've had it. Could be, they've
 NB> gotten a  RH>> different cook in the time between our visits.
 NB>  NB>> Or, they've had more than one cook, and you got a different one
 NB> the  NB>> second time from the first....

 RH> Could be, but it was still good.

 NB> Just a little different... :)

Yes, but not impossible to deal with different.


 NB>  NB>>> than before...?  But, exactly, one doesn't know how one might
 NB>  NB>>> like something until one tries...  :)
 NB>  RH>> True, it was good, if a bit on the hot side. It warmed me up
 NB> quickly,  RH>> as did Steve's spicy chicken, him.
 NB>  NB>> Both thermal and spicy heat, then...?  :)  We had a spicy noodle
 NB> dish

 RH> Yes, and it would have been extra good today as we didn't get above
 RH> freezing.

 NB> Yeah, we've been having colder temps here, too...  :)

We're warming up to the low 50s this week end but back down to the 30s
early next week. Not having the snow that we saw western NY got tho.


 NB>  NB>> today at the new Malaysian place... the last thing supposedly
 NB> how spicy... given  NB>> a choice between 3 and 4, we took 3... and
 NB> that turned out to be a  NB>> nice heat... a little tingle and lots of
 NB> flavor...  :)

 RH> Sounds yummy.

 NB> 'Twas...  :)   Another place that, should we have extra time with you
 NB> sometime, you might want to try...  :)

I usually ask about the heat level to try and get an idea of what to
expect. Then too, each place seems to have a different definition of hot
than the next one. (G)

 NB> it was fairly  RH>> basic as we were still settling moving dust and
 NB> left a few days after  RH>> Christmas for NY.
 NB>  NB>> We did go to Seoul House for Christmas Eve... split an
 NB> appetizer-size  NB>> seafood pancake and then an order of spicy
 NB> squid... both very nice...

 RH> Rachel made chicken paprikash with home made spaezle for Christmas
 RH> eve. It was good but we ate late (went to a light show).

 NB> That sounds like fun... :)  and good food, too... :)

The meal was better than the show. The show was a lot of static
displays.

 NB> think we  NB>> managed to take them by surprise, coming in only for
 NB> dessert...  ;)  NB>> Decided on a bowl of red bean ice cream to
 NB> share...  :)

 RH> Nice to change things up every so often.

 NB> They certainly didn't mind... :)

Did they have a busy week end?

 NB> Korean  NB>> place, I did notice on the menu at Seoul House something
 NB> that looked a  NB>> lot like a rolled sushi, seaweed on the outside,
 NB> but it was called  NB>> something else... they have new menus now,
 NB> that is made of pictures  NB>> of the different items with the name
 NB> and price...  I ended up asking  NB>> to see one of the older menus
 NB> (still available when we were there) to  NB>> be sure I was getting
 NB> what I wanted...  :)

 RH> Good to keep some of the old menus around for folks like you. I'm not
 RH> sure what the Koreas sushi thing was but it didn't taste bad. Not
 RH> nearly as good as Fu's tho. We also tried a Fry's (grocery store in AZ)
 RH> samples of a sushi, both the spicy (with siracha) an non spicy. Again,
 RH> they didn't compare to Fu's, but not bad. Never did swing back to the
 RH> sushi area to get some for lunch tho.

 NB> Yeah, I know... once you've had Fu's, there's a benchmark that no one
 NB> else quite seems to meet... ;)  I know there are decent sushi places
 NB> in the Phoenix Valley, we've had the opportunity to try some, while
 NB> the kid still lived out there...

This was probably ok for grocery store sushi but as you say, we've had
much better. I don't know if Deborah is into sushi or not--have to ask
her--we might make a trip to one of the places some time.


 NB>  NB>>>> Might be better to send to Richard, same as mine except
 NB>  NB>>>> rjbackus instead of backus...  ;)  He can handle the bigger
 NB>  NB>>>> emails a lot easier... :)
 NB>  RH>>> OK, I'll make sure he knows to send the pictures to Richard.
 NB>  RH>>> Probably easier to see on the computer than the phone.
 NB>  RH>>> I passed the work on, don't know if he's sent the pictures yet.
 NB>  NB>>> As far as I know he hasn't... at least Richard hasn't said
 NB>  NB>>> anything about it yet...
 NB>  RH>> I'll put a bug in his ear about it; he's been a bit preoccupied
 NB> the  RH>> last few days.
 NB>  NB>> You were pretty busy back then on getting ready for your trip...
 NB> and  NB>> since then, being on the trip.... after all...  ;)

 RH> Yes, and now we're home, getting caught up on any & every thing.

 NB> Eventually...  :)

I'll try to remember to make sure I let Steve know he needs to do that.
