Hi Dave,


 DD> FINISHING UP

 DD> Not even on your PB&J sandwiches?  <VBSEG>

 RH> Not even those. (G)

 DD> I'm the same way with bologna that you are with peanut butter. It
 DD> really does trigger my gag reflex.


I bought some bologna probably a couple of years ago; hadn't bought any
in years (maybe decades?), thought we'd switch off from our usual lunch
meats (turkey, ham, roast beef). We'll stay with our usual 3, thank you
very much. Not quite a gag reflex but not a taste we'd like to repeat.


 DD>       Title: Apple Rice Pudding
 DD>  Categories: Diabetic, Desserts, Rice, Fruits
 DD>       Yield: 6 Servings

 RH> Hmm, looks interesting. I use brown rice, jasmine rice or a rice blend
 RH> (put out by Lundberg). The brown would work the best all around of the
 RH> 3, jasmine and blend is for when I cook Asian or just want a different
 RH> side.

 DD> My default rice is bassmati (or Texmati). No special reason for it -
 DD> just fell into its use after buting a BIG (30#) bag at a Big Lots
 DD> store. Realised when I got it home that's a LOT of rice. Especially
 DD> for a single guy cooking mostly for himself.

 RH> It freezes well, both raw and cooked. I've got some in the freezer I
 RH> need to pull out this week and use, maybe in chicken soup now that the
 RH> weather has cooled down. Also have to pull out some pumpkin next week
 RH> to make a pumpkin roll for Steve's birthday.

 DD> I've tought about making a punkin roll once -- until I read all of the
 DD> directions/steps. I;ll let someone else assemble mine.

I don't think it's that hard to do, but then again, I've done it so
often that it's not quite a no brainer proccess.

 DD>       Title: Peach Skillet Cake w/Sorghum Flour DD>  Categories:
 Cakes, Fruits, Spices DD>       Yield: 8 Servings

 RH> Have to keep this in mind for next year's peach season.

 DD> Or used canned peaches. They don'r mess them up too badly when putting
 DD> them in cans. I drain and rinse them first.

No, and I've used them from time to time, also canned them at various
times. Still prefer fresh, if those aren't available, then home canned.
Commercial canned is the last resort.
