Heh, heh. You a jive turkey. But I dare say, like any tidy chef you deplore left-overs and feel compelled to wrap them into a panegyric on comestibles. Wow! A whole new dish! Right up there with slumgullion! Maybe even corned beef hash! Somehow better if travelled a bit.

Hey Jon--maybe I should expand this with added meats--we could do a lot with that corned beef hash I bet!

Dorothy I completely enjoyed this little tidbit. I can see you seated at your keyboard, mind juxtaposing from there to here and back again, Greg in the kitchen kneading bread and laughing out loud. This sums up your magical existence so completely and I sit here smiling, and totally charmed. Oh, and of course a ghecko chirps from the corner.

I love this, Dorothy! I regret that I was not ever able to get to Greenbrier for those amazing conferences.

What a fun "find" and I really appreciate being able to read it! It brings back so many fun memories of our years together in Missoula! Happy New Year to you both!

Love it! It's like going through boxes of old papers and finding all kinds of treasures!

Absolutely! Especially if you have old family letters from one relative to another that tell you stories you didn’t know!

Oh my goodness, I only just made the connection that your husband is one of The Food Guys! Love that show. And your little piece. I, too, am in the middle of decluttering - though of my entire house and not my computer (yet).

Now that it's the new year, I've decided to choose 3 'things' to strike off my list each day, instead of having a list so long that I get discourage and nothing gets done. FYI you can listen to Food Guys from Greg's website, The Baking Wizard; just click on Podcasts.
