Sorry, city girl here with trips to my grandfather's farm who by that time had pretty
much stopped farming. Was this smell of silage good or bad??

I don't know how Microsoft Windows Live Mail works. I've never used
it. In Agent I have "Usenet Filters" in the Tools menu. That shows my
filters. You'd need to look for something similar.

Windows Live Mail was replaced by Outlook a few years ago. Although
I don't use Outlook I do have my accounts there but there is nothing
there unless it's is well hidden that has 'tools' or any type of filter such
as that.

It's good for lasagna, too.

Hmmph.
 
In the dark end of the year, when fresh green vegetables were not
abundant, yes, Granny bought tinned veg. I have a vivid memory of those
little artificially green round things on the plate, the green dye
seeping into the mashed potatoes. Gran (like many people at the time)
didn't even have a fridge, let alone a freezer, so if you wanted a
change from cabbage, neeps, onions, leeks, and carrots, you resorted to
tins.
During the growing season, we always had lovely fresh veg.

Because somewhere in your subconscious, you remember just how tasty
home-made pasta is.

The New York Dolls' two albums were spectacular, but Sylvain hadn't
done anything worth doing musically in 40 years. Thunders died a long time ago.

My wife and I saw Johnny Thunders on our wedding night in 1986.

My mother used to make bread pudding except at our house it was called
'cold biscuit pudding.' It wasn't served cold it was made from leftover (cold)
biscuits and I've never tasted any that came near hers or even remotely had
the same taste or texture. But don't get me wrong, I'll be first in line when
bread pudding is served!
 
I have made it from croissants and that was VERY good and VERY rich;
quite buttery since I added even more butter to the makings.

All y'all don't get it. I guess meat's not very good for the brain.

I like fake meat. If the ingredient list isn't a kilometre long, I'll
eat it occasionally. What do meat eaters know about meat alternatives
anyway :)

But the worst ingredient was missing: animal suffering.

I never minded McDonalds hamburgers taste-wise. They tasted a bit like
baby food, but not bad. But the meat flavour hardly mattered with all
the other additions. It would taste as good to me with fake meat.
 
>> I wonder why meat eaters even eat meat replacements.
 
>You just said above that you've tried them.
 
Yes, but I'm not a meat eater.

Yes, maybe. Or for environmental reasons.
 
According to the WHO, some meats are as bad for you as smoking, but
not the lean meats if I remember correctly.

Yes, beans can be a good meat replacement. Unless you need a bloody
steak every day and enjoy the taste of heated up blood, I guess.

In the end, he's all talk. Just a suburban daddy-o. Joe Homeowner. The
kind of guy he despised when he was in a punk band.
