Think of this as a neighborhood -- some are new neighbors, some are old and
dear friends, and some are kooks. In addition to sharing an interest in
cooking and eating, we also share our ups and downs in life. Pastorio was
an old, dear and extremely talented and gifted friend who died recently. We
shared our loss together. This is an unmoderated group so you will find all
the odds and ends that you mentioned. Moderated groups are available that
are limited strictly to the stated subject of food. Give us a chance and
you will soon determine what postings you wish to skip.
