| Dave Smith <adavid.smith@sympatico.ca>: Jun 01 04:20PM -0400 We are in Toronto for the weekend and staying at a downtown hotel. There are lots of food options. Last night I was thinking of Thai food but my wife isn't crazy about it because of the high sugar content. I suggested a Spanish place where I had had a nice meal years ago. I went to Google and they suggested on a couple blocks away that was well rated. We showed up without a reservation and got a table before I realized that it was Portuguese.... not a problem. We split an appetizer of grilled squids that came with a sort of salsa of red peppers and grilled pineapple. My entree was tiger shrimps in house made linguini with a tomato and chipotle sauce. My wife's entree was the winner. She had grilled octopus, one of those things I will eat but not order. I wish I had ordered that or myself. Dessert was a pear poached in Madiera and served with raisins, chopped dried apricot on top of a ricotta mousse. Delicious. |

It all sounds good but the pear sounds like the best part. I've made pears poached in port years ago but this version sounds better. |

I think they used wine but I don't remember what kind. |

It's a combination pressure/slow cooker and possibly a steamer. Not that you asked but the Ninja Foodi I have is also a pressure/slow cooker/steamer/air crisper/and dehydrator. |

Some shirt were iron but most all were pullovers that were knit. But I learned if you want wrinkle- free clothes is to start taking them out of the dryer the last 10 minutes or so of drying time. Hang each one as it comes out, pants or shirts, and DON'T leave any clothes laying in the dryer once it shuts off. |

Hang each one as it comes out, pants or shirts, and > DON'T leave any clothes laying in the dryer once it shuts off. Yup, exactly... My former gig was "dress casual" and I am very "particular" about crisp dress shirts ('HEAVY STARCH PLEASE!'), dress slacks, etc...so my cleaning bill was pretty high, I only wore items once, and then back to the cleaners... Now my work duds are polo shirts, cargo pants and jeans...no big cleaning bills, I just launder myself, no "crispness" needed... -- Best Greg |

That was the best styling move in the last few decades. You can bet that I'm a pretty cool dude. The last time I wore cargo pants was in high school. Those had bell bottoms, these don't. :) |

But I'm still guessing those >powdered milkshakes were not made at a dairy/creamery. If you don't have proof, you're just blowing smoke. He doesn't understand the word dairy. To him it means someplace where you go to get milkshakes, ice cream cones and burgers. this is Wikipediia definition of dairy "A dairy is a business enterprise established for the harvesting or processing (or both) of animal milk – mostly from cows or goats, but also from buffaloes, sheep, horses, or camels – for human consumption. A dairy is typically located on a dedicated dairy farm or in a section of a multi-purpose farm (mixed farm) that is concerned with the harvesting of milk." |

It was quite the big deal to our mining company when the Chinese visited the headquarters in 1977. The bigwigs were seriously courting them as the guys on the floor made fun of them in their goofy "JC Penny's" suits. Even after all these years, the old guys on the floor are still underestimating the Chinese. That's a poor attitude as well as a dangerous one. |
