Subj : Legion [1] To : Dave Drum From : Ruth Haffly Date : Fri Jan 13 2023 14:28:07 Hi Dave, RH> Typing one handed as the right hand is 95% wrapped to the wrist, orders RH> not to even use the exposed fingers and thumb for a week. Makes life RH> interesting. (G) Thankfully I have a relativly small keyboard. DD> Did they give you an "immobility" aid? I once broke the knuckle of my DD> "signalling" finger on my right hand. The doctor had an aluminum sort DD> of splint/appliance which he taped me into and it held the fingers in DD> place. Wore that for a week then he switched me to one that just kept DD> the finger with busted knuckle from moving. Right now the first and middle fingers are wrapped together and there's some sort of support om my palm, then all is wrapped up just past the wrist toward the elbow. My ring and little fingers are fully free, and the thumb is partly so. When I go to the therapy appointment on Tuesday it'll be re-done. The knuckle of the middle finger was the one replaced. is made selling parking DD> by the day during State Fair time. The post cooperates with other DD> groups to man the parking deal. My motorcycle club (Vintage Iron DD> Riders - (old folks and old bikes) got U$850 as our cut of the pot DD> for parking cars and selling bottled water on a single day (not the DD> busiest of the fair) mid-week. RH> Sounds like a good deal there. Our church lets people park for free in RH> its 2 lots when there's an event in town. We also give out bottled RH> water, a tote bag and info about the church. DD> So the cost to park is accepting the propaganda. Bv)= No, they can decline the bag and still park. And, it's NOT! propaganda. DD> for WWII veterans. But as the number of survivors from that war has DD> dwindled the focus has shifted to Keoran War and Vietnam era vets. RH> I've heard of honor flights, had some go out of RDU but none since RH> 2019. DD> Central Illinois does a couple per year - in the spring and again in DD> the fall. Each begins with a tour of the local war memorial sites that DD> begins with Lincoln's tomb then the WWII memorial and the Korean War DD> Memorial .... all in fairly close proximity and the tours arranged to DD> require minimal walking. Then to Capital Airport and the silver bird DD> to one of the three Washington aerodromes. A very full day as I recall. If I remember rightly, when they landed at RDU, the plane went thru a water salute from the airport fire department. DD> No bean chilli is known around here as Coney Island Sauce. Bv)= We had some of that once--hardly any texture or heat to it. OK on a hot dog but not even close to what I'd call chili. DD> Title: Alabama Picnic Chilli DD> Categories: Chilli, Vegetables, Herbs, Chilies, Stews DD> Yield: 12 Servings RH> I've a friend like that, even a bell pepper is too hot for her. DD> But, but, but bell peppers have NO HEAT. Unless it's a "Mexi-bell" DD> that resulted from a cross-pollination with the bell pepper's cousin a DD> real DD> chile .... most often a jalapeno. She may have gotten one of those DD> once and the heat is now psychosomatic. I don't know the story behind it. When we (both Steve and me, her & husband) were in HI, she got some kim chee when we went to a Korean restaurant once. One bite and her husband got the rest of it. RH> If I make my family style chili mild, I usually bring an assortment of RH> powdered peppers and hot sauce so those that want heat can add to RH> theirs. Once in HI I brought (among others) some powdered habenero. I'd RH> labeled the top as HAB; one guy misread it as just HOT and sprinkled RH> some on his bowl full of chili. After he cooled his mouth off, he asked RH> me about it so I told him it was powdered habenero. He said he'd be RH> sure to read the labelling better next time. DD> I never offer powder or flakes. Just a bottle of Cholula or Trappey's DD> Red Devil. And NEVER EVER Tabasco which gives a sour vinegary pong to DD> the chilli. I want the offered add-ins to enhance the flavour not DD> cover or obscure it. I offer an assortment so people can choose their heat/flavor profile. Pseudo-Malinda's is usually the only liquid one, unless I happen to have something else on hand. DD> Do you offer Texas Pete hot sauce which is made not far from you in DD> winston-Salem? It's the 3rd best selling hot sauce in the land. No, never bought it but suppose I should, some day, It's the one that restaurants keep on the table with salt, pepper and pepper vinegar. --- Catch you later, Ruth rchaffly{at}earthlink{dot}net FIDO 1:396/45.28 ....
