Hi Dave,

 DD> We had cats and dogs. And a 3-legged raccoon. My grandfather trapped
 DD> the raccoon in the sweet corn patch. It was strange, he had railed
 DD> over "those 'coons stealiong his my corn" for so long then going to
 DD> the corn to bring fresh sweet corn back for Cappy to munch on.

 DD> I asked him about it and he said "That was stealing. This is giving."
 DD> Bv)=

 RH> Now that's funny--to quote a former member of the echo.

 DD> Ahhhh, yes. Burton Ford. Remember him fondly.

Yes, it was always fun to get the resident Eat's opinion of different
foods.


 DD> My friens Les' send-off (funeral) is today. I made this for the after
 DD> funeral meal at Temple Israel. But then I realised that I had meat and
 DD> dairy in the same dish do it wasn't kosher. Dennis and I will eat well
 DD> for a couple of days.

 DD>       Title: Classic, Savory Cottage Pie
 DD>  Categories: Beef, Potatoes, Vegetables, Wine, Herbs
 DD>       Yield: 8 servings

 RH> OOPS! I know you will enjoy it but you will be thinking about Les as
 RH> you eat it.

 DD> True, that. And Janis Kracht who also passed recently (per Shawm's
 DD> e-mail)

 RH> I saw the notice also. She wasn't on the echo too much in the last few
 RH> years but will miss her. It was at the first picnic she hosted (2008?)
 RH> that we first tried durian.

 DD> My first (and only) go with durian. It was nice once I got past the
 DD> diaper pail odor. Apparently it is an squired taste.

It was our only experience with fresh durian. Steve took some, then made
this big speech about trying it before he actually did. Janis snapped a
picture of him pontificating; about a year later we were visiting and I
saw the picture in her computer room.


 DD> Making this for the weekend (and beyond). For the noodles I'll use my
 DD> grandmother's three ingredient (egg, flour, salt) egg noodle/dumpling
 DD> recipe which I've posted here preciously.

 DD> I went to Humphrey's to get a pound of bacon-sizzler patties and a
 DD> chuck roast jumped into my trolley. It's not a "chuck eye" but I'll
 DD> make do.

I'll probably get a chuck roast or two next time we do a big shopping
trip, turn one into sauerbraten.


 DD> I'll freeze all but the noodles after the first go. Should be another
 DD> meal (with freshlu made noodles) for mw and Dennis.


 DD>       Title: Slow-Cooker Beef Stroganoff
 DD>  Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Pasta, Dairy, Herbs
 DD>       Yield: 7 servings


Looks good; I'd be drooling but am too full from supper to do so. (G)


 DD> ... My only exercise is jogging my memory and wrestling with my
 DD> conscience.

Not jumping to conclusions? (G)
