 NB>>> I see we got a large dump of different dates from you finally...
 RH>> The log jam broke, finally!
 NB>> Finally!!  :)

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

And I'm working on a backlog that got to be over a week's worth... Only
one more week before Lydia gets home, and then maybe I can be on a more
reasonable schedule...  ;)  And have more days where I can sit and work
on the backlog, like today... ;)  

 RH>>> True, it was good, if a bit on the hot side. It warmed me up
 RH>>> quickly, as did Steve's spicy chicken, him.
 NB>>> Both thermal and spicy heat, then...?  :) 
 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...  :)

 RH> We're warming up to the low 50s this week end but back down to the 30s
 RH> early next week. Not having the snow that we saw western NY got tho.
 
Meanwhile, we had a slight warmup, too... and today the temps are back
in the teens... and a lake effect snow warning that is currently in
effect and supposed to continue til tomorrow evening... so far, not a
lot of snow where we are, but I know that closer to the lake has been
getting more of it... :)  Hopefully it will taper off in time for my
needful travels tomorrow... 

 NB>>> We had a spicy noodle dish today at the new Malaysian place...
 NB>>> asked how spicy, given a choice between 3 and 4, we took 3... and
 NB>>> that turned out to be a 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...  :)

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

For sure.  :)

 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... :)

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

Oh, well.... :)  At least you ate well.. :)

 NB>>> think we managed to take them by surprise, coming in only for
 NB>>> dessert... ;)  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... :)

 RH> Did they have a busy week end?

Apparently not as busy as some weekends... We did eat there for
Christmas Day, but the normal Friday night traffic I guess wasn't there,
since it was the holiday... Fu was just as glad to be at the restaurant,
as otherwise, he'd've been expected to do the honors for extended
family, and this was more what he wanted to be doing... ;)

 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) and 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...

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

 NB>>>> Might be better to send to Richard, same as mine except
 NB>>>> rjbackus instead of backus...  ;)  He can handle the bigger
 NB>>>> emails a lot easier... :)
 RH>>> OK, I'll make sure he knows to send the pictures to Richard.
 (snip)
 NB>>> You were pretty busy back then on getting ready for your trip...
 NB>>> and since then, being on the trip.... after all...  ;)
 RH>> Yes, and now we're home, getting caught up on any & every thing.
 NB>> Eventually...  :)

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

OK.   :)
