Nothing wrong with letting flavors blend, I use a big pressure cooker, just throw the stuff in, set the timer, come back when it’s done. No hovering required, Ed Gein could have learned a thing or two from me. The dogs had Chicken Cordon Blue tonight baked in the oven. Real Wisconsin Canadian Bacon with Wisconsin Swiss Cheese.
There is a lot of irony in Real Wisconsin Canadian Bacon.
Has anybody told you lately what an utter barbarian you are? 
Hi, Dale.
It’s great to hear from you, and glad you’re OK.
I’m another whose life would be utterly different if Chiff&Fipple hadn’t been here.
Best wishes,
Jerry
what about blotting paper?
Dale - no matter what the topic, I always enjoy (maybe not agree with) reading your posts.
And I hope it’s ok to feel you and several others on this board are “friends” even if we’ve not met IRL.
Do what you gotta do, but remember to stop in once in a while. And also remember, if you are ever passing through Cincinnati, you have a place to stay.
Not sure how his wife would feel about that…
haha 
Another good piece of advice. 
Notwithstanding the “To Serve Man” references, I spent an evening with MT down in San Diego and he really is a great guy. My correspondence with Nano has been all cyber but he’s a prince. I ain’t suckin’ up, because I don’t really have anything to gain. I am prejudiced toward people who I perceive to grasp the overall paradoxes of life and bear it with judgement, humor and goodwill. I wish I was as nice as either of 'em.
There goes my coffee.
Come visit for a session, and do bring yer spoons. You’ll find out from nice. 
I’m sure we all know how much Nano likes his little paradoxes.
I do, but I had to let them go. Keeping a house floozie is expensive; need I point out how much more so are two?
yes but they keep each other occupied…one requires interaction with you
Spoons at a session? Uh. Okay, that would bring out the not-so-nice…
“If you clatter on those #@&%!^& things one more time I will take those spoons, scoop out your brains, and eat them. Now go back to the kitchen.”
Works pretty well.
