Hi Dave,

 DD> Once the sharks .... errrmmm lawyers had finished with it there was/is
 DD> a truce in place.

 DD> The regional chain is heaqdquartered in Littlefield, TX.

 RH> So we might find some more in our western wanderings.

 DD> They're in West Texas and South Texas and throughout New Mexico. The
 DD> company also operates stores in Colorado, Arizona and Kansas.

All states we travel thru, spending more time in AZ than the others.


 RH> Looks good but for the cilantro; that's not allowed in the house. (G)

 DD> I'm not a huge fan of cilantro but I do use it in some things or they
 DD> simply don't taste "right". However, it's very easy to overload and
 DD> get that Ivory soap taste/feel. And one tablespoon of fresh is very
 DD> minimal. Even chopped.

 RH> Steve can taste the "soap" in even small amounts so it's best left out
 RH> of our cooking. I'll tolerate some, but then reach a point where I
 RH> don't want any more. That point seems to be resetting lower, the older
 RH> I get.

 DD> Gotta cook to suit yourself.

Which we do. When we get a steak to grill, Steve will split it in half,
start my half a few minutes before putting his on the grill. Neither of
us like the shoe leather we grew up with but a rare (for him) to medium
(for me), seasoned and grilled just right is so good..........
