    I finished up the pasta in cream/sherry sauce tonight. It still was
    good, reheated at low speed in the microwave.

    I will look for this message to appear on DOC's . There were two of
    my messages posted a couple of days ago that I could not find there
    after you wrote me an email about a lack of messages. But your five
    were there, and came into my QWK packet tonight, as well as a message
    from Ed Vance and one from CT Ruth. There are three other messages
    from CT Ruth and one from Swisher which got here after my QWK packet
    was made at 10:45 pm.

    I'm thinking that traffic volume here is just low for now. Nancy may
    be off at the pond, and NC Ruth posted a bunce a few days ago, but none since.

    I think DOCs may be having problems .... or maybe it's FIDO. I posted a
    packet of 20 recipes via Janis' BBS. Normally those show up at Doc's in
    a half-hour or less. Here it is 90 minutes later and they still aren't
    showing up at Ed's board. They are, however, on Sean's Outpost, Shawn's
    Tiny's BBS and Marc Lewis' Waldo's BBS.

    Probably need to get the net cops on the case. Bv)=

    Shifting gears - I have noticed that the recipe sources that I use seem
    to have abandoned chicken breast as their default chicken meat and gone
    over to thighs/legs. In the past 60 days all of the recipes I have read
    for chicken have specified thighs/legs with nary a mention of breasts
    unless referencing parting out a whole bird.

    They're all still in love with Kosher salt as their default salt unless
    they are specifying "sea salt". Seldom see just plain ol' "salt"
    mentioned. If there is no quantity measure on the call for salt the
    "Kosher" part somehow gets lost in the shuffle when I pound it into my
    Meal Master. BV/=

    Here's yesterday's recipe from my NYT Briefing e-mail

    Title: Devilled Chicken Thighs
    Categories: Five, Poultry, Chilies, Vegetables
    Yield: 4

    8 chicken thighs
    +=OR=+
    4 chicken leg quarters; separated
    Salt & fresh ground pepper
    1/3 cup Dijon mustard
    1/3 cup minced shallots, onion or scallion
    1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne; to taste
    +=OR=+
    1/4 ts Tabasco sauce; to taste
    Minced parsley; optional garnish

    Heat the broiler to its maximum, and set the rack about
    4" from the heat. Season the chicken with salt and
    pepper on both sides, and place it in a pan, skin side
    up. Broil, watching carefully, until the skin is golden
    brown, about 5 minutes.

    Meanwhile, combine the mustard, shallots and cayenne.
    (If you have a small food processor, you can chop the
    shallots by throwing them in with the mustard and
    pulsing the machine on and off a few times.)

    When the chicken has browned, remove it from oven, and
    turn it. Spread just a teaspoon or so of the mustard
    mixture on the underside of the chicken, and broil about
    5 minutes. Turn the chicken, and spread the remaining
    mixture on the upper, or skin side. Broil until mustard
    begins to brown.

    At this point, the chicken may be done. If it is not
    done, turn off the broiler and leave the chicken in the
    oven 5 more minutes or so. Garnish and serve.

    Perhaps he is just not polling as often. I am getting your messages
    that you post in two other echos and Ed and I get our mail from the same
    sorce (Janis). I don't see them on Docs because I rarely look at
    anything there other than Cooking echo.

    Probably need to get the net cops on the case. Bv)=

    Not clear -- but if you think that there is a problem, feel free to talk
    to him via email and/or area 2 on his BBS. I see nothing wrong -- just
    that Cooking seems to be going through a few days of light mail.

    Shifting gears - I have noticed that the recipe sources that I use
    seem to have abandoned chicken breast as their default chicken meat and gone over to thighs/legs. In the past 60 days all of the recipes I have read for chicken have specified thighs/legs with nary a mention of
    breasts unless referencing parting out a whole bird.

    Makes no difference -- folks would substitute whichever preference they
    have anyhow.

    They're all still in love with Kosher salt as their default salt

    The difference between regular salt and the other two is that regular
    salt has iodine added. Kosher is also a larger granule, which has some
    effect on things like rubs but little to none used when cooking in a
    liquid recipe.
