Cheri, You might note that the first sentence in my entire post began with, "As far as I'm concerned." Secondly, my 'suggestion' about the kid not being cute enough was preceded by "I guess." BTW I have seen the kid in question. He's NOT cute! But he is a human being and he's a kid who's dying. Finally, I stay my hand with regard to you thinking what I said was over the top. -- Nick, KI6VAV.

And its not like every dying kid has a big wish to cook alongside Ina, so I doubt there would be a rush. There are some things you can't really make excuses about. |

fried ice cream usually replaces the cone so wouldn’t be the same ..now had
they taken fried ice cream and put it on a cone..battered and deep fried that and then doused in powdered sugar...then you have a paula dean recipe..lol KROM "Ozgirl" wrote in message ...

oh I love whole wheat doughnuts..my favorite was baked in one of those
electric doughnut griddle thingies. it was a <sadly> recipe from the ADA magazine..if I recall the kids one JDF and to make doughnuts "diabetic friendly" they replaced white four for whole grain and instead of frying them you add oil to the batter and bake them.. my mother fell for any and all of these sorts of recipes and it was my job to call the ambulance for her inevitable trip to the hospital with a dangerous high or low...usually a low as shed eat 4 "healthy" doughnuts and spike then shed overshoot her insulin and pass out..

in Minnesota until recently the only places that had ice cream were the
American buffets like old country buffet and I thin sizzlers had it. only one Italian place made ice cream here totinos..the other Italian place (yes other..lol..food choices were not diverse here..)..made shaved "Italian" ice which was just a snow cone with lemonade on it. oh and of course chi chis had fried ice cream. once the Chinese buffets took off big time here they now all have ice cream but its that gross milky soft serve crap you dont want anyway. but as far as fried ice cream the only two spots to get it was chi chi's and the state fair..which for some reason stopped selling it years ago KROM "W.

That Chock Full O'Nuts on 1116th st sustained me al ong with teh rickers on the same block when I was in Ccollege at Barnard:-) Cheap, clean, unifirm taste, so you knw exactly what you were getting. I loved the nutted cheese-kind of cream cheese with nuts and it was CHEAP! 15cents a sandwich an 5 cents a doughnut. Of course, minimum wage went from 75cents an hour to $1.00 during my undeergraduate days. I used to love Paddy's Clam House. they had something like $1.49 lunches with a fish, potato and veg, with, I beieve soup too. I never had their pies, but they were very good and a great value for a young working womman making about $60 a week. Those fish lunches were not just fried fish either, but broiled or baked. thanks for reminding me. Wendy |

When I was growing up, there was a grocery/deli almost next to that Chock Full. Its name was "TA-KOME." When my grandparents, who had spent years as missionaries in China, moved into the neighborhood for a while, they thought when they saw it that it was a Japanese store -- you know, pronounced Tah-Komay. LOL Of course, it was actually pronounced "Take Home." When I was a kid and went into my father's office at Columbia with him on Saturdays, we'd get lunch from Ta-Kome. For a while there I was on a sardines with butter on white bread sandwich and Yoo-Hoo to drink kick. Eeewww!!! In June, 2010, I was back in the neighborhood for a reunion at the school I'd attended from first grade through high school. The spot where Chock Full was is now a very good pan-Asian restaurant. It packs people in at tiny tables with table service. Moderately priced, tasty food. Perfect for students. The West End bar, where many literary figures (and some of my high school classmates, both before and after graduation) drank, is now a Cuban restaurant. Also good. Much good eating in Morningside Heights!
