    you order for curbside pick-up at no extra charge if your total
    I've used the curbside deal a time or two. Just on dry goods,
    Produce and meat I prefer to select myself. But, a can of peas is a
    can
    of peas. And a 12 pack of diet A&W Cream Soda or Root Beer .....

    ...has aspartame in it, so I can't have any.... One more reason I
    prefer going in myself too. I can't read labels I can't see.

    And I agree with you. I cannot fathom buying produce, meat, dairy or
    bread for pickup or delivery. And I would not use that service for any
    other groceries as well. Gail and I like to pick out our foods in the
    store, and also often go with a list of three items and come out with a
    dozen things that just "jumped' into our cart. We have no food
    allergies, but can easily appreciate what you said about reading labels.
    For example, we were at Wegman's today and only when in the store
    noticed that the Ocean Spray juice we buy was on sale, so we loaded up
    on it. A brief look at the label showed that one flavor had apple
    juice. I doubt that a stock clerk would have looked at that as closely
    as Nancy would have done.

    This has one of your favored ingredients in it (look down past the

    Title: Chocolate Sauce
    Categories: Sauce
    Yield: 1 Servings

    1 Info

    Put in saucepan a half cup of sugar, one tablespoon of flour,
    one-fourth cup of powdered chocolate. Stir and add one and a fourth
    cups of boiling water or milk. Stir till comes to a boil. Then cook
    for about two minutes. Remove and add two tablespoons of butter and
    a half teaspoon of vanilla.

    This sauce is much creamer and richer if an egg yolk is added just
    before removing from fire.

    CRANBERRY SAUCE

    Wash and grind one pound of raw cranberries, one orange with the skin
    on, and nuts to taste. Add two cups of sugar and serve when well
    combined.

    CRANBERRY SAUCE, OLD STYLE

    Wash berries, removing those that float or are too ripe. Put one
    pint of berries into a porcelain lined saucepan with half a cup of
    water, over moderate flame. Stir often with wooden spoon.

    When the berries have all popped, and are soft, add sugar to taste and
    let cook for about ten minutes, stirring carefully.

    Do not strain the sauce. Mash the berries instead. Pour into thick
    bowl while hot, and do not serve till next day.

    GINGER SAUCE

    Serve hot or cold. Bring one cup sugar and half cup of water to boil.
    Add three tablespoons minced crystallized ginger. Let boil for about
    ten minutes.

    HARD SAUCE

    To be served cold, on hot dessert. Rub one-fourth cup of butter into
    three-fourths cup of sugar. Stir till white and creamy, then add
    half a teaspoon of vanilla and a generous sprinkling of nutmeg and
    brandy to taste.

    The secret is to keep stirring.

    LEMON SAUCE

    Cream one-fourth cup of butter and one cup of sugar, as for a hard
    sauce. Add two well beaten eggs. When well mixed, add half a cup of
    boiling water and half teaspoon salt. Cook in double boiler till
    thick. Take from fire and add three tablespoons of lemon juice and
    one teaspoon grated rind.

    SOUR MILK SAUCE
    (Aigre doux)

    One cup of sour cream, two tablespoons of lemon juice, one teaspoon of
    grated lemon rind, one-fourth cup of powdered sugar.

    Put all ingredients together and beat with an egg beater till light.

    This is delicious sauce.

    And I agree with you. I cannot fathom buying produce, meat, dairy or bread for pickup or delivery.

    Certain things one just has to choose for one's self.... unless one
    really doesn't care if it's any good or not... :)

    any other groceries as well. Gail and I like to pick out our foods in
    the store, and also often go with a list of three items and come out
    with a dozen things that just "jumped' into our cart.

    True, delivery or pickup does cut down on those 'impulse' buys... :) I
    try not to get more than one or two impulse-y things per shopping
    trip... ;)

    We have no food allergies, but can easily appreciate what you said
    about reading labels. For example, we were at Wegman's today and only
    when in the store noticed that the Ocean Spray juice we buy was on
    sale, so we loaded up on it.

    It's on sale for a couple months... I was quite pleased to see it go on
    sale, as well... :)

    A brief look at the label showed that one flavor had
    apple juice. I doubt that a stock clerk would have looked at that as closely as Nancy would have done.

    They have no need to... ;) I'm just thankful that there are a number
    of flavors of the Cran- drinks that don't have any apple in them... :)
    The new Cran-Blackberry is safe for me... :)

    Title: GINGER FIG PUDDING WITH VANILLA SAUCE - COUNT
    Categories: Dessert, Holidays
    Yield: 8 Servings

    Vanilla Sauce (recipe
    -follows)
    1 T Plus 1/4 C dark molasses
    1 T Plus 1/4 C dark corn syrup
    1/2 c (1 stick) butter, softened
    1/2 c Firmly packed dark-brown
    -sugar
    3 Large eggs
    1 sm Ripe banana, mashed
    1/2 c Finely chopped dried figs
    1 T Finely chopped crystallized
    -ginger
    1 c Unsifted all-purpose flour
    1 t Ground ginger
    1/2 t Baking soda
    1/2 t Salt
    1/2 c Milk

    1. Prepare Vanilla Sauce and set aside to cool; cover and refrigerate
    while preparing Ginger Fig Pudding: In 1-quart pudding mold or
    ovenproof bowl, combine 1 T each molasses and corn syrup. Over low
    heat or in microwave (if mold or bowl is microwave-safe), warm
    molasses mixture until it runs easily; swirl molasses mixture to coat
    inside of mold and set aside.

    2. Heat oven to 350'F. Remove one oven rack and place remaining rack
    at the lowest level in the oven. In 8-quart covered stockpot, heat 2
    inches water to boiling over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and
    keep water simmering while preparing pudding: In large bowl, with
    electric mixer at medium speed, beat butter and sugar until light in
    color and texture. Add remaining 1/4 C each molasses and corn syrup;
    beat until blended, scraping side of bowl as necessary. Add eggs, one
    at a time, beating well after each addition. On low speed, beat in
    banana, figs, and crystallized ginger until mixed.

    3. In small bowl, combine flour, ground ginger, baking soda, and
    salt. Add to pudding mixture alternately with milk, beating at low
    speed just until blended. Pour pudding mixture into prepared mold.

    4. Stand pudding mold in pot of simmering water; cover pot and
    carefully transfer to oven. Steam pudding in oven 1 1/4 hours or
    until a long bamboo skewer inserted to the bottom comes out clean.
    Remove mold from pot and cool on wire rack 10 minutes. (Do not cool
    completely or pud- ding will stick to mold.) Carefully turn pudding
    mold upside down onto serving plate and gently remove mold,
    protecting hands as mold will still be hot. Serve warm with Vanilla
    Sauce.

    Vanilla Sauce: In small saucepan, heat 1 C half-and-half to boiling.
    Meanwhile, in small bowl, combine 3 large egg yolks and 2 T sugar.
    Slowly whisk half-and-half into yolk mixture. Pour all back into
    saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, over very low heat until
    sauce thickens slightly and coats a spoon. (Do not boil.) Stir in 1 t
    vanilla extract.

    Usually true -- except when I try to jerk on his chain. Sort of like
    when I sent Jim Bodle a recipe for squid stuffed with beets. He loved
    the first and abhored the second. But, Michael would just perform
    zucchini => eggplant ( if he used a recipe at all, which is seldom).

    I probably would do that substitution too, with the same caveat. I

    meat, or something I cook about once every five years.
