    Sometimes it merely expresses being relatively content in the situation, having come to terms... not totally fatalistically...
    I don't buy that - I find it sillier than que sera sera,
    which is objectionable enough. Reflections of the old
    that that is is that that is not is not is that not so
    would-be tautological witticism.
    That sort of thing gets my head spinning... ;)

    To make that effect, there has to be at least a
    little slack in that taut thread.

    The beauty of TinyURL is that it makes unwieldy
    things, well, tiny. The cutting of the length
    of the original by a factor of 5 decreases the
    likelihood of typo by a similar figure.
    How long do those stay in effect...?
    Longer than the URLs that they point to, apparently.
    It lasted long enough for me to finally get to it... ;) Interesting article...

    Yeah.

    Not sure how sweetened that seems to me... Did you try them out...? And if so, were they less making you bleed so much....?
    Haven't bothered yet. May not.
    I suspect, if twere me, I'd not bother either... too many things that
    I'd not want to go wrong there...

    There are these samples of extremely expensive
    medicine. Anyone who wants them can have them.

    I've already turned a doctor down on taking aspirin to prevent clots
    when I broke my ankle... and was shown to be perfectly correct in
    thinking I wouldn't need it.... Dunno, another situation might not be quite so clear cut to me, but I suspect I'd still stay with that...
    I wonder if the insurance companies require that
    the docs prescribe the stuff.
    Dunno... the doc I stood down was a resident in the hospital... but he
    did give in... They might require that it be at least offered,
    encouraged or recommanded (spelling intentional, a variant picked up
    years ago from a sibling's kindergarden teacher)...

    That spelling echoes what I suggested before.

    Evidence-based medicine, you know (which I think is
    overapplied if not arrant bullshit).
    Quite agreed with you there...

    Same with Mr. Occam. Just because it applies in
    the majority of cases doesn't mean that it applies
    in all cases.

    Marcus Samuelsson doesn't characterize his
    recipes as Ethiopian (I do, though, just for fun).
    Is he, then, Ethiopian....?
    Ethnically, yes; Swedish by upbringing, New Yorker
    by culture.
    OK... Dale went into more detail, too... ;)

    He is very assimilated.

    I could maybe see within the same day... but I don't think foods stick around much more than that to combine and be useful... or to fill in the gaps... I had heard, in terms of total nutrition for children, that if they are getting a balanced diet over the course of a week or so it all balances out, but I always considered that a bit more macro a process anyway...
    I'm not sure how and whether they combine.
    Maybe nobody really does.... ;)

    The thing is that in order to build muscle, you
    need a particular set of amino acids. How much
    muscle needs to be built at any short slice of
    time is the question.

    A battle I fight with many of my friends - Lilli and Bonnie
    both tend to when in doubt throw it out, only their doubts
    come easily and often; but then there are those such as
    Rosemary who keep things far longer than their wholesomeness
    would call for.
    I end up keeping things too long, sometimes well past usability,
    eventually they do get tossed.... ;)

    Take it off the shelf if you don't like the smelf.

    It has been said that the only diet that gives you
    all the nutrients you need except for protein is one
    in which you eat sweet potatoes exclusively, and who
    would do that. It's easy to fix, anyway.
    Sweet potatoes and meat... what's wrong with that... (G) Ok, even I'd probably get tired of sweet potatoes if that's all I was having... ;)

    I've had meals of just sweet potato - but that's
    only in the short term.

    ---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.01

    Title: Spring Street Prosciutto Bread
    Categories: Breads
    Yield: 2 servings

    2 1/2 ts Active dry yeast 1 1/2 ts Salt
    1 c Warm (105-110F) water 1/2 ts Black pepper
    2 Eggs 1 c Fresh Parmesan cheese
    2 tb Olive oil 2 c Minced prosciutto
    3 1/4 c Flour Cornmeal for dusting

    1. Dissolve the yeast in the warm water in a large mixing bowl and set
    aside for 15 minutes.

    2. Stir in the eggs and oil. Combine 3 cups of the flour with the salt
    and
    pepper, and stir into the yeast mixture. Knead to combine adding more
    flour, a little at a time, to make a firm dough.

    3. Combine the parmesan cheese and the prosciutto and lightly dust with
    flour. Work the misture into the dough. Turn the dough out onto a floured
    board and knead until smooth, 10 minutes. Return the dough to a
    well-oiled
    bowl, cover, and set aside to rise in a warm place until doubled in size,
    about 2 hours.

    4. Punch down the dough and knead for 3 minutes. Divide the dough in
    half.
    Form each half into a oblong loaf. Sprinkle 2 baking sheets with cornmeal
    and place a loaf on each. Set aside to rise until doubled in size, about
    1
    hour.

    5. Line the oven with wet baking tiles, stones or trays of terra-cotta
    chips and preheat to 425F.

    6. Using a razor, make 6 slashes diagonally across the top of each loaf.
    Bake until golden, about 40 minutes, spraying with a plant mister every 5
    minutes for the first 15 minutes of baking. Cool on a wire rack.

    Makes 2 loaves.

    OK... Dale went into more detail, too... ;)
    He is very assimilated.

    What sort of food does he serve in his different restaurants...
    essentially the same across the board...? or are there ethnic
    variants...? Dale mentioned he found reference to 3 in Sweden and 1 in Bermuda, along with the NYC area and other US ones....

    There is that....

    Something like that.... (G)

    I've had meals of just sweet potato - but that's
    only in the short term.

    We've had more than a couple meals, in fact quite a few, of just a sweet
    potato alongside the meat (usually a steak of some sort)... :)
