And fine, too. I'd like to see a little more
traffic here, but not too much more. I do what
I can, with the 5 a day routine, and I discover
that doing 10 a day doesn't change things much,
so once in a while I may do that.

I try to keep caught up every day unless there are extenuating
circumstances. If needs be, I'll "binge" for a few days to catch up
then, but try to keep writing to 20 or under per upload.

Thanks. I figure that there are a few of us who
through our participation, habits, and rituals
keep this echo going. Most of the time I think
it's worth it.

Lilli was an actual trainer as well; her expertise
was in horses, but it was my impression that she
did the finish work on the dogs, because she ended
up knowing how the placements ended up. I'll have
to ask this week when I see her.

Probably a lot more involved than we'd realise. When I was a kid, our
dogs learned basic tricks but nothing like what the service dogs have to learn.

It's the instilling of the unquestioning obedience
that is so impressive and would appear to be so
difficult.

together. > ML> I'm going to vote for no flour or just a little

bit, maybe up to 20%. Make smallish balls, start
them off in a very hot oven, then turn the oven
off and let them finish cooking.

Might be something to experiment with.

As it turns out, that experiment has been done,
as a post to Swisher notes.

I'll have to check it out.

When you have years of alternating days (from Labor Day to late June) of oatmeal and CoW, for 20 some years, it gets old fast. Over the years, I
got to the point where I could take oatmeal--with extra sugar, cinnamon
and raisins--but never again CoW. Then I had to give up piling on the
extras with the oatmeal when I got the diabetes diagnosis. I'll (very)
rarely have a bowl of it now, preferring other things for breakfast.

I've made a repectable facsimile of galaktoboureko
using CoW, cream, and eggs.

I almost always hate it and will remember an
incident for decades.

Usually an experience like that does linger in the memory.

For me, it's when the person "sounds nice" and ends
up untrustworthy - it's a wonder I'm not really down
on people who "sound nice."

Sounds like a backstabbing.

Put it this way - to say people are not always
completely upfront is an understatement.

It's a crapshoot - I find that on the east coast
they're better at it than on the west coast.

Probably depends on the doctor/practice also.

No doubt, but I don't have an infinite amount
of opportunity to shop around.

We try to stay local but Steve gets a lot of his care at the VA hospital
in Durham. My primary care doctor is here in WF, ortho doctor is
officially in North Raleigh but the line is just across the main road
thru the area--may as well say WF.

That's plenty local. You could do it on a horse.

that I read my chances of making are even smaller.

Sounds about normal.

Especially as most of the time I don't even
consult recipes, much less follow them.

I'll sometimes post what I make, but do it in a free form sort of style. Steve has a couple of recipe programs on the desk top system that I
don't use very often any more. I did put some recipies into MM years
ago; some are on floppies from when we had the C-64.

I'll write up recipes when encouraged to do so,
but usually it's a slow recitation with frequent
pauses when I have to figure out what I did. Usually
it's oretty decent, but once in a while I get
challenged - "you sliced up a carrot," and I'll
pause and say, uh, guess I must have.

Also, > I like Milky Way bars better than Snickers bars.
If Milky Way is the one with the malted nougat,
I agree. Or is that Three Musketeers?

It's the 3 Musketeers, Milky Way has more of a caramel filling.

Well out of my epertise - I have them, mostly
the miniatures, when at friends' houses, such
as Gail and Dale's.

Hi Michael,

I can, with the 5 a day routine, and I discover
that doing 10 a day doesn't change things much,
so once in a while I may do that.

I try to keep caught up every day unless there are extenuating circumstances. If needs be, I'll "binge" for a few days to catch up then, but try to keep writing to 20 or under per upload.

Thanks. I figure that there are a few of us who
through our participation, habits, and rituals
keep this echo going. Most of the time I think
it's worth it.

I'd miss it if we had to fold--would have to come up with an alternative
way to keep up with each other.

Lilli was an actual trainer as well; her expertise
was in horses, but it was my impression that she
did the finish work on the dogs, because she ended

That would be harder in some dogs than others.

I don't recall seeing it, wonder if my system hiccuped.

I've made a repectable facsimile of galaktoboureko

Not sure if I'd try it or not.

I almost always hate it and will remember an
incident for decades.

Usually an experience like that does linger in the memory.

Quite so.

It's a crapshoot - I find that on the east coast
they're better at it than on the west coast.

Probably depends on the doctor/practice also.

And, some recipies I'll sit down/write out without pausing to think

We've bought them for trick or treaters and ended up with left overs but usually not bought them for ourselves. Used to buy the Hershey's mini assortments--Steve would tell the girls to save the special darks for
me. (G)
