I used to read this newsgroup religiously (to use a phrase) about 10 years ago. We recently moved to Southern CA and I remember there were quite a few poeple who also were active on this group back then from CA. I remember always reading about Trader Joe's and wondering what it was - they did finally build one a mile from my house in Northern Virginia but now I'm surrounded by them out here! Anyway, just wanted to say HI to anyone who is still out there in CA from back then. It's been quite a move for us but hopefully we'll adjust - nice weather anyway! 🙂

welcome back to the group, I've only been here a short while myself. I'm also in SoCal, also in San Diego to be exact. We're having a cook-in in June, but I'm hoping we can all get together before then.

Ah yes, the old cook-ins. I remember reading all about them but never
attended one. I'm in Yorba Linda, about 1.5 hours north of you. Hopefully
they'll have them in the LA metro area too!

The folks who organized the L.A. Cook-Ins are no longer involved with rfc or have moved away. However we still have annual Cook-Ins in Sandy Eggo. You are welcome to attend this years. It will be June 12th. Just email me and I will put you on the mailing list.
I'm sure that someone will volunteer to host a Cook-In in L. A. before too many years go by. It is not a difficult thing to host but requires a lot of planning and organization. In the meanwhile, most SoCal rfc'ers make the short drive down to Sandy Eggo.

Hello Risa,
I became active in this newsgroup years ago at the strong suggestion of Susan Steinsapir, as I was home recovering from mono. Susan--who was very active in the group before her untimely death in 1996--thought it would be a good release for me and it was. I still remember Susan sitting at my computer showing me how to search in Unix. Reading the group these days is rare for me. There are still a few familar names though. I did host one cook-in (rather, eat- in) in Sacramento. Ray Bruman in Berkeley really threw some great rec.food.cooking gatherings.
While most of the people I knew in this group don't appear to be active these days, the topics are quite familiar. "What is a cube of butter? How do I season cast iron? Why use unsalted butter?" etc.

Yeah, and there are sometimes really good brownie recipes, too.
