    In the case in point, well, you just don;t want to
    bring it up.
    OK, by the time I see him again, I'll probably have long forgotten this conversation.

    Recommended course of action.

    It would be nice if one could be confident about
    all the merchandise also being local in origin.
    AFAIK, this is all local so you shouldn't have any qualms about
    buying > local at our market.
    If they don't let me pick up and smell the merchandise,
    no sale.
    Don't see where there would be any objections to that. I picked up some yellow and zuchinni squash at the market today--checked out a number of
    each of them before putting aside the ones I ended up buying. I didn't
    sniff them tho. I do the same in grocery stores.

    Well, zucchini don't have much of a smell, and
    what there is is nauseating anyway. With other
    produce, fruits especially and herbs, fragrance
    is an important criterion.

    for 300 > ML> pennies. > One of these days I will take rolls of
    pennies to pay him. > ML> "If only his jokes were as good as his produce."
    Just don't tell him that. (G)
    Depends on how things are going. As you said about
    sleeping dogs.
    If he's not busy, he wouldn't mind it. I mentioned it today--he said
    he'd melt them for the copper. Trouble is, pennies have been made with
    zinc (and a copper coating) for a number of years now so he would not be getting much copper out of them.

    So sorting for pre-1982 pennies, which should
    be automatable, would make sense.

    Happens. Word has it things like that will
    happen with greater frequency.
    Either that or we'll all not need our winter jackets, boots, gloves, etc.
    And then we'll miss that season, much as we howl
    about it nowadays.
    Some would be happy to miss it and not fuss at all, others would howl
    all "season" about it. I missed it a bit while we were in HI but not
    that much, overall.

    Eventually everyone will regret the situation, because
    not only will many useful crops be given a boost, pests
    will as well, including ones that cause disease and
    destruction - and yes, I'm looking at you, fungi.

    Of course, galaktoboureko doesn't require
    anything beyond a 350 oven.
    That would be done inside, in the range.
    Figured.
    And I do have on hand most of the ingredients list that you sent to Nancy. Send me a list closer on to the picnic so I can double check.
    I figure to have to buy frozen pastry of some kind,
    CoW, and maybe white sugar.
    Raw sugar wouldn't work?

    The dish would be substantially different.

    Still respectable. A friend of mine just lost her
    mom at 93 ... I expressed sympathy, but there's not
    much to regret about someone dying after living that
    long. The sad thing was that she died of lung cancer,
    having never smoked anything in her life.
    I've heard of it--Christopher Reeves' wife went the same way, at a much younger age. Did this friend's father smoke? Second hand smoke is just
    as lethal as first hand--that's why I try to stay clear of anyone
    smoking.

    In those cases it may not have had anything to
    do with smoke, first or secondhand.

    Funny. It's a pretty standard saturated
    vegetable fat smell.
    I've never smelled an immature coconut.
    You may have the opportunity. Do you happen to
    have a machete lying round the house?
    No, but we have cleavers.

    One can try with a cleaver, if it's really
    sharp and really heavy. Unfortunately, I can't
    see using a cleaver without wasting all the
    water and much of the jelly inside. But we shall
    see what we shall see.

    New restaurants are intriguing unless they
    immediately trigger your yuckdar.
    It didn't trigger a yuckdar but we thought the food wasn't quite as good
    as our favorite Chinese place.

    There are some pretty obvious wwtt ones, but on
    the whole a new restaurant will have enough
    intriguing about it to warrant curiosity - after
    all, it attracted enough investor interest.

    Sauteed mushrooms with sour cream
    categories: Slovenian, side, dairy
    servings: 4 to 6

    500 g mushrooms, thinly sliced
    2 Tb butter
    1 ts chopped garlic
    2 Tb sour cream
    salt to taste
    1 Tb chopped parsley (garnish)

    Melt butter and cook mushrooms over moderate heat until they
    release the liquid. Add garlic and stew uncovered until the
    mushrooms have dried almost completely, or about 10 min. Mix
    in the sour cream and cook for further 5 min. Serve sprinkled
    with chopped parsley.

    Automation would help but I've not seen coin machines that sort by date

    Just buy a small quantity and I'll let someone else take it home. Same
    with white flour.

    Sorry, Steve wasn't in the Army during the Viet Nam era so no jungle
    fighting with macheties. The cleaver is the closest kitchen tool we have
    to it.

    This one has been around for a while. It's closer to where we live than

    The vendor we called dragon lady certainly objected to our trying to

    corn. She insisted that her tomatoes were vine ripe, full of flavor.
    Previous week we had bought one -- it was about as bad as the Florida
    tube tomato that gets so much grief from folks who like real tomatoes.

    Some of the vendors had a plate with small wedges of their product cut
    and put on display for tasting. Especially true for melons, peaches.

    is an important criterion.

    I don't think you would find any dragon ladies (or guys) at our market.
    (G)

    Some of the vendors had a plate with small wedges of their product
    cut and put on display for tasting. Especially true for melons,
    peaches.

    Tomorrow is strawberry day at our market. There will be berries for
    tasting, and, as I understand, possibly goodies made from strawberries. Blueberry and peach days will follow later in the season.

    Hi Dale,


    I asked Steve to look at this message and then see if he could trouble shoot the problem with you.

    I look forward to hearing from him -- here or via email.

    I told him about it; he said he'd look into it. BTW, they are coming
    in on my phone's e-mail so it's probably something in this computer.

    Which gives me a couple of questions for him. Is your phone set to
    delete mail once read? (If so, that could explain a lot). On your computer do you use an offline reader (e.g. Eudora) or do you use web based reading?

    Answeers to your questions--first one, no, not that I can see. Second question--yes, I do use an off line reader but he would be the one to
    tell you which one. It looks like, from the date ofthe last packet, that
    it started the last time he did updates to my system in mid April. Don't
    know if that changed anything or not.

    This looks interesting but I'd probably see if I could make my own
    pastry instead of using the crescent rolls. I don't know if the honey
    sauce would go with it or some other sauce, more of an Indian type
    instead.

    Do keep me updated on anything you or he figure out. Meanwhile, I just
    got an email from Swisher that his email of reply packet got blocked
    some ISP. Nothing I can do about that either.

    I figured that you would say that. I think that the idea is that the
    pastry needs to be on the crisp crunchy side of things.

    Puff pastry is not quite right, but this recipe might work if you don't
    roll it out quite as much. Just use your judgement at making breads. I
    could not find a recipe for cresent roll dough.

    Title: Quick Puff Pastry - Master Chefs
    Categories: Basics, Pastry, Masterchefs, New york
    Yield: 6 servings

    4 c Flour, instant, or more
    1 1/2 ts Salt
    1 lb Butter, unsalted, cut into
    -- large chunks
    3/4 c Water, cold (about)

    For Quick Puff Pastry:
    ======================

    In a mixing bowl or mixer, roughly combine the flour, salt and
    butter, breaking up the butter slightly (there should be visible
    chunks). Gradually add just enough cold water to hold the dough
    together. DO NOT OVERWORK.

    Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and roll it
    into a rectangular shape about 9 by 12 inches. Dust the board, dough,
    and rolling pin with flour as often as necessary to prevent sticking.
    Starting with the closest short end, fold the dough into thirds as you
    would a letter. Rotate the dough so the open side is at your right.
    Repeat, rolling the dough into a rectangle, folding it into thirds and
    rotating is as before. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for
    at least 1 hour.

    Place the dough on a lightly floured work surface with the open
    side at your right. Roll the dough into a rectangle as before. Now
    bring the two short ends together to meet in the center of the dough,
    then fold the dough in half again toward you. Rotate a 1/4 turn, so
    the open side is again at your right. Repeat, rolling the dough into
    a rectangle, folding in half, then in half again, and rotating a 1/4
    turn. Wrap the dough and chill again for at least 1 hour.

    Hi Dale,

    that it started the last time he did updates to my system in mid April. Don't know if that changed anything or not.

    Do keep me updated on anything you or he figure out. Meanwhile, I

    I'll haveto ask the resident guru if he's looked into it yet. He's not
    said anything about it so I think other things have been on his mind.

    just got an email from Swisher that his email of reply packet got
    blocked
    some ISP. Nothing I can do about that either.

    Fun and joys of modern technology!

    I figured that you would say that. I think that the idea is that the pastry needs to be on the crisp crunchy side of things.

    It seems that way. I know I've got enough cook books on the shelves that
    I should be able, if so inclined (G), to find a pastry recipe that would
    work.

    Puff pastry is not quite right, but this recipe might work if you
    don't roll it out quite as much. Just use your judgement at making breads. I could not find a recipe for cresent roll dough.

    This is one where I wish there were some sort of automated roller on the market. My wrists wouldn't be able to take all the rolling/folding
    needed, and at this point, I couldn't be on my feet that long. Guess
    I'll have to cheat and buy the commercial stuff.
