If I could twitch my nose and have any type of food appear in front of me; I think my choice tonight would be a hot fudge sundae.

Or possibly my mother's tamale pie! Yum.

Steak is okay, but I really love a good casserole. Of course, having a divorced mother raising two children on a teacher's salary in the 50's required a lot of casseroles. Strangely, raised side by side, I love casseroles and my sister can't stand the sight of them.

I like most seafood, but I am not crazy about crab. If you grow up in the Northwet you are supposed to love crab, but I can take it or leave it. I much prefer scallops, oysters (cooked), or lobster.

And don't even ask me about salmon!

The salmon line should have been a separate post. I messed up.

Of course, the most intelligent group of people in the world would be the retired librarians

Not feeling very intelligent tonight, DR TCB.

Ahhh, now Jose has joined this merry group of Ginny and me.

We had salmon for dinner tonight.

Good Evening!

Salmon was never high on my food top ten, but after a summer working in a fish processing plant, doomed any desire I might have had for salmon.

And we now have one Guest. Do you think it might be 3D?

Ginny · « **Reply #104 on:** April 05, 2011, 06:24:04 PM »

Oh, I feel fine, DR TCB - thanks for your concern. I think what's bothering me is a lot of unfinished projects/business and too many distractions.

Just back from margaritas with friends. Good to catch up again. I hadn't seen Wayne and his wife since I worked at the census last year.

How was the trip to Virginia, Jose?

And, TCB, you had a run of great posts tonight. Salmon obviously was not your dinner. What was?

Glad you had a chance to get out for a little enjoyment tonight, John G.

So, I gather there are TV shows on tonight, which is why no one else is here but us chickens. I used to do that. TV, that is.

Tonight, I had the next to the last serving of tuna pasta salad that I have been eating since Sunday. That is the problem of cooking for one.

Don't you watch tv, John G?

TCB · « **Reply #113 on:** April 05, 2011, 06:29:54 PM »

I never learned to make a small amount of any dish.

TCB · « **Reply #114 on:** April 05, 2011, 06:31:34 PM »

And the worst is my beef stew. Every night when I am eating it, I start thinking of what else would have been good in the stew. So, the next day, I add that to the stew.

Thank You for the Travel Vibes! -If there was a day when they were needed, well...

When I got to the bus stop, my bus was not there. "It will be here in about 15 minutes.". It was there in 20 minutes - which was only 5 minutes late. However, since the bus was doing a turn-around, the passengers had to get off, and the staff needed to do a quick clean and sweep. That only took another 5 minutes, so that wasn't too bad.

I was the second person to board the bus. The second of four passengers. -I was almost expecting them to cancel the bus since another one was scheduled to leave 30 minutes later. But they didn't. However...

As the drivers were changing over, one of them mentioned that the southbound traffic on the NJ Turnpike was backed up for about 20 miles. I checked Twitter, and found reports of two accidents - sadly, both of them fatal - and that part of the Turnpike was now closed. Well...

The driver then started rattling off a series of alternate routes. And then he started driving. As soon as we caught up with the back-up on the Turnpike, he took this exit. Then that exit. Then that side road. Then... Etc., etc., etc.

We arrived in DC just 30 minutes later than scheduled - and that included a 15 minute break at the Delaware Welcome Center/Rest Area. Not bad at all!

A challenge perhaps. A joy. But not a problem for me.

Go to your library and look for a book called "The Pleasures of Cooking for One" by Judith Jones. It's a great new way of looking at things.
