Hmmm...thanx for the snow peas reminder, I'm on way out to the Asian grocer
and I'll pick some up. Very lightly steamed in the microwave would work in
a salad, they'd be good in a "vegetable medley" side dish for a main course
too...red bell peppers are on sale, combined with some carrots they'll make
a tasty and attractive trio to serve alongsides that pork roast I'll be
making on Sunday.

Lunch will be at the Chinese BBQ joint (Sun Wah, on Argyle St. here in
Chicawgo), we'll have some BBQ meats as an app and then I think I'll spring
for the shrimp stir - fried with Chinese veg. These shrimp are nice and
big, they have a real bite and are not mushy like some of the limp 'n
listless pussy shrimp that are fairly commonly served at lotsa places...
