I think she was a semi-celebrity before she got hooked up
with Cuomo.

I preferred Graham Kerr's recipes and cooking style before
his makeover; lifestylewise I can't say I have much in common
with either before or after. As far as Sandra Lee goes, her
recipes range from banal to frightening, nothing good to
work with for starters. I was looking, though, and the very
worst Food Network recipes are not hers. At least she makes
an effort.

 ML> Funny. Though I'm not very visual, it's pretty easy for me
 ML> to take a boneless serving of meat of any shape and shoehorn
 ML> it into a little mental card-size box (or two, or three, or
 ML> ten for that matter).
 RH> I can do it, it's just more mental gymnastics to do so with things
 RH> like a turkey leg or plate of wings. (G)

I was told that the rule of thumb for such cuts is to
count on 50% bone. So shoehorn that turkey leg into
the card-size boxes and divide the result by two.

 ML> Tabasco is not my favorite for heat or flavor either; it is
 ML> distinctive, in any case. Texas isn't any better that I can
 ML> discern and is considerably less hot, bad news in my book.
 RH> So many people are wimps when it comes to hot anyway that they think
 RH> that it is plenty hhot for them. Delusions--it's vinegary, not hot.

Though vinegar does have a hotlike effect in that its
fumes go up into the nasal passages and cause discomfort.
