Hi Dave,


 RH> It would have been nice last night. Started with freezing rain, then
 RH> went into snow (got about an inch) then back to freezing rain. A good
 RH> bit of it melted today but we did the smart thing and stayed in.

 DD> We had over 8" of snow when all was said and done. Yesterday we got to
 DD> 40 degrees Farenheit - which melted off a lot from the sidewalks and
 DD> the non-arterial streets. And made it safe to use cruise control
 DD> except on the unplowed/unsalted streets.

We've got a few areas (north facing, shaded, etc) that still hve snow
but it is mostly gone. Did a bit of drive around after church yesterday,
only a couple of small patches of icy roads, which, I suspect, are dry
today.

 DD>      8<----- CUT ----->8

 RH> Leftovers that go back into the fridge go into glass containers, as
 RH> does cut up fruit and other such stuff that needs to be put in the
 RH> fridge. Used to do a lot of Tupperware until Steve retired from the
 RH> military; since we don't have to meet a weight allowance any more, I've
 RH> switched to glass.

 DD> Most of my culinary glass is loaf pans, casseroles, pie plates. Mostly
 DD> Anchor-Hocking and all oven safe. Oh, and an amber glass 3 quart sauce
 DD> pan the I literally inherited when my fried John Ilsley snuffed it.
 DD> His daughter gave it to me.

 RH> I've got a good number of casseroles, long pans and pie plates, mostly
 RH> Corning Ware. Also have the one quart and 1 1/2 quart Visions pots
 RH> from the set we had many years ago.

 DD> I mis-spoke. That amber Good Visions sauce pan is just 2 quarts I had
 DD> occasion to use it to boil up some penne pasta.

I never went with the full visions set, went with their Rangetoppers
instead. Used them for a while, then got Calphalon in summer of 1992,
when we came back from Germany. Traded that (except for 8 qt stock pot
and 6 qt pasta pot) for stainless steel around 2012.
