Hi Shawn,

 RH> For the most part, my dad was a plain foods eater. Most of our supper
 RH> (big meal of the day) meals were a meat, mashed potatoes (with or
 RH> without gravy, depending on the meat), another vegetable and dessert.

 SH> Sounds like what they like. But no dessert.

Dad had to have his dessert--at luch, a cookie and piece of candy would
suffice. At supper, it had to be cake, pie or whatever, but more
substantual. We are doing a light dessert more now; when we first got
married, they were few and far between. Now they're more often but on
the light side for the most part.

 RH> Mom was a plain cook also, probably because of Dad.

 SH> Bob will try things, but when he doesn't finish we know it will rot in
 SH> the fridge until I throw it away.

He doesn't go back and finish it off, I presume?

 RH> made it; my dad's reaction was "where's the rest of the meal?". In
 RH> all their trips

 SH> Laugh.

 RH> to AZ, not once did they try Mexican food. For a while, there was a
 RH> German restaurant in town; that's where they would take us for a
 RH> night out.

 SH> At least they try it here, but chances are they won't like it.

There's all kinds. One of my favorites is something one of the local
Mexican restaurants introduced me to--it has chicken, rice, zuchinni,
yellow squash and shrimp in it, with a cheese sauce. Not usually
something I'd have thought of as Mexican but it is good. (IMO)
