    It was easy for me to save up for lunch, because
    even then I found milk dubious in taste and effect.
    On rereading I came up with "milk duds untasty,"
    which isn't true.

    Indeed... Those eyes are getting bad.... Reminds me of the time a
    younger sister misread "They're Double-Toasted" as "They're Dollabar"...
    it, of course, became a family saying....

    I can see that... and for me, even then, I enjoyed milk, at least when
    it wasn't off-taste.... (G)
    Which, let's face it, is much of the time.

    If properly handled, and fresh enough, and not in a cardboard carton it
    tastes rather nice... ;) Of course, back in the school days, the
    school milk was probably fresh enough, but often not well handled, and
    was in those little waxed cardboard milk cartons.... :)

    chicken leg a bit of a luxury item... but sounds like it was worth every penny of it... :)
    If you like dark meat and grease.
    Which we both do... (G)
    I did save up those pennies.
    Indeed... :)
    Have you rescheduled that bamboo lunch yet?
    Not yet... was kinda waiting for my sister to initiate, but perhaps that
    is being too optimistic.... ;) I'll probably call our mutual friend and push her to arrange it again.... :) She's more into back-and-forth
    texting than I am...
    Hah - I understand, having received exactly
    one telephone text message in my life, and
    that by accident.

    I didn't have to call Juanita, my sister made the contact, and we have rescheduled it now... :) Planned for the 11th.... :)

    I brought my friend Donna to that one, and she'd've wanted to stay in
    the motel even had you been able to put people up.... but otherwise, I'd've been happy enough to had you been allowed...
    I would have done well with a bodyguard.
    From what I heard from you afterwards, quite agreed on that...
    Scary it was.

    Indeed.

    But you could turbocharge it with garlic.
    Even better with whole milk... ;)
    I actually don't see skim milk being good for
    anything except to assuage the guilty
    consciences or neuroses of eaters with wrong
    priorities.
    I'm certainly with you there.... I did, back in my baking days, add
    powdered skim milk to the mix for enrichment... but there'd be whole
    milk in there as well.... the skim was beyond and above....
    You could I suppose have added any number
    of supplements in addition or instead.

    Probably... and I did add some other things as well, such as raisins to bread... ;) But I tended to not get too exotic... :)

    ... Did you hear about the baker who was short of dough?
    Yeah, there was a movie not long ago about him.
    Don't ask how I know about it, but I didn't see
    the movie.

    You have a wider network than most for information... ;)

    Clearly that last should have been RAISINS, just got truncated...

    But truly, the apple made it poisonous.... :)
