Margaret, believe me my feelings weren't hurt - I was just teasing you. I think the whole "beet war" is funny. I know I can't stand to be around them when they're cooking - it's too earthy a smell for me. Pickled, though - that's another story! Dora |

Some people don't like their jobs, but you gotta make a living. Some people don't like where they work, but you gotta have a place to live. Some people thrive on contention. Other avoid it to the extent of doing things that hurt them. But nobody *needs* to read or post to rfc, and they need to tailor this environment to suit their likes and dislikes. We all need to allocate our time, and if Helen chooses to killfile certain posters, well, that's what it's for. -- Dan Abel Sonoma State University AIS |

Tonight for dinner I will have Ox Tail Ragout! With mashed potatoes and green peas and a green salad. While I was simmering the oxtails, I found a container in the freezer, in which I was collecting chicken gizzards. I added them to the oxtails. I tried them already, having cooked them for more than three hours. They are wonderful. Marcel will eat Gaspacho, Chicken a la King with mashed potatoes and green peas and the same salad as I. Strange, as sad as I am about the terrorist attack in London, I still am looking forward to tonight's dinner. I guess I am getting really old. |

If you cannot get horseradish root, you can use prepared horseradish, such as Gold's or Manischewitz. Do not use the extra hot one, only the original. Good luck with the salad. > |
