I really enjoyed your pictures, Sheldon. Who's the tuxedo?
Tugged at my heartstrings, I never did get over mine, even after
all these years.
That's "The Jilly", one and the same of the r.f.c Mugshots. You need
to get another one... check your local shelters, they usually have
Tuxedos. The Tuxedo is not a recognized breed, rather it's a genetic
anomaly that can occur in any breed; a white cat with black markings.
Tuxedos exhibit superior behavioral traits from their pure breed
version, they're smarter, more playful, and more affectionate.
Quoted message said:I do love Italian green beans, can't think why I haven't had them in
so long. Maybe I'll surprise Ron with his mother's beef stew one of
these days, it has those in it.
Those Italian green beans were frozen, I recently discovered them at
my local market as a store brand, they're very good, a nice change of
pace for a side, and compared with the winter produce in the stores
this time of year they are very reasonably priced, $1.49/lb., and no
waste. I nuke them rather than cook them on the stove top. I've
discovered that you definitely need to add the quantity of water
called for and even a bit more, as they take longer to cook than other
frozen veggies so you need to watch that too much water doesn't
evaporate or they will begin to singe, imparting a bitter flavor. And
since they're flat the left overs will be nice cold instead of lettuce
in a cold sliced pork sammich. With some mayo and lots of black
pepper will make a yummy lunch in another hour, if I can hold out. Of
course Jilly will help, she loves pork, she loves green beans too.
Nancy, you need to get another Tuxedo.
