We're going to Carin's dad's. We're bringing:
Ribs to put on the grill (I'm not saying how James prepares them, but they're yummy anyway) Corn on the cob Watermelon I burned the ham-and-cheese puffs I made, so we're eating them without the burned bottoms for breakfast and not taking them with. Carin's bringing: Potato salad Crudites and dip Drinks Should be fun. We haven't seen her dad much this past year or so, and he's a nice guy. What's everyone else cooking today? Serene |

I will bake some potatoes too, as she doesnt like potato salad. Oh, and I will make some guacamole from a Rick Bayless recipe: my guest loves guacamole. Christine |

I have a 5lb spatchcocked chicken on the smoker (not parboiled), which will be followed by a couple pieces of salmon. Potato salad, pastitso, tossed salad with all sorts of funky greens, beets, red onions and artichokes. -sw |

What's everyone else cooking today? The day before yesterday, I had a warning sign of incipient gout in one foot, so I immediately went on an anti-gout diet. This is the second time I've had that following eating one of those new Trader Joe's grilled frozen panini. They're great sandwiches, but I don't think I'll eat another one. One of my pots is occupied now with a science experiment, so between that and the anti-gout diet, I'm just eating fried rice and vegetables today (my other pot is the big cast iron one I mostly use for frying, the occupied pot is stainless steel and used only for boiling). Because today is the third day, I might chance some pesto tortellini later today, if the experiment is finished on schedule and the pot becomes available. I better get my ass in gear and finish that up. It'll take hours to run the next six batches. What torture I put myself through in the name of science. |

![]() "Serene" wrote I burned the ham-and-cheese puffs I made, so we're eating them without the burned bottoms for breakfast and not taking them with. Sounds good to me! Should be fun. We haven't seen her dad much this past year or so, and he's a nice guy. Hope it's a nice day. What's everyone else cooking today? Oddly enough I'm making chicken cacciatore, just a craving. Why on such a warm day, I don't know. I had a hot dog for lunch, that's a little more traditional. Bad timing, I ran out of gas in the grill on Thursday and didn't think to fill it on Friday. Everywhere I might get propane is closed for the holiday. Oh, well. nancy |

Speaking of gout, Mark, did you happen to know that asparagus can greatly exacerbate the condition in some people? I have a close friend who didn't know that until she binged on asparagus for a while. -- Wayne Boatwright ------------------------------------------- Monday, 05(V)/26(XXVI)/08(MMVIII) ------------------------------------------- Today is: Memorial Day ------------------------------------------- Spindle and mutilate, SEE if I care.... ------------------------------------------- |

Drink, Drink then Drink some more till you can't drink any more! Only water of course. You need to flush your system as much as possible. Keep a glass of water with you at all times. Do you take Allopurinol ? Dimitri |

I say "Respectful Memorial Day to you" Ribs turned out okay. Potato salad okay. Arnold Palmer tea delicious. Fresh tomatoes with slivers of a Mexican string cheese, basil and olive oil pretty good. Zucchini bread for snacking pretty good although with the substitution of some sugar with Splenda it actually seemed too sweet? Ah well.. |

![]() "Michael "Dog3"" wrote in message 6.121... snip I *finally* got to see what gout looked like. There was a man at the doctor's office with a pair of open shoes on. His right foot looked excruciating. I didn't mention it to him because I didn't want to seem rude but he offered up that he was having an especially painful episode of gout. I don't remember if it was you, or maybe it was Andy, that remarked gout felt like someone took a sledge hammer to your big toe. Well, that is exactly what his big toe looked like, sort of. There was no trauma ie: torn skin, bleeding etc. but the toe was huge and a redish purple color. It looked like a big, throbbing bruise. Like a giant plum hanging off the ankle. Michael I have had several bouts and have a tendency to get them for several reasons: Alcohol consumption as well as coffee will dehydrate and it is the dehydration that causes the uric acid, which is normal to any human system, to become concentrated and form a crystal usually in a joint in an extremity. Big toe, ankle, thumb it doesn't matter. Foods that are rich in purines such as oatmeal, other grains, shellfish, organ meats, will also exacerbate the condition. It HURTS LIKE A SOB! The only relief for me was Vioxx which was pulled from the market. The other relief comes from icing, freezing the area. In my case some of the other meds I take will exacerbate. |

fired up random neurons and synapses to opine: What's everyone else cooking today? Preparing Plaintiffs' witness list, exhibit list, jury instructions, finalizing motions in limine and objections to Defendant's motions in limine...fun stuff. Am anticipating a yummy pb&j* at some future point. (And am willing to bet that I'll get all my trial ducks* in a row and the judge will rule sua sponte on the papers.) *Thus being OB.
