“Taco shells made from the crust underneath paella filled with hominy and avocado.”

John G., I love the way this was plated.

Are those resting on a bed of coffee beans?

DR Elmore, glad you’re feeling better this morning.

Freddie, there were a few times that you and I replied to each other. 😊

Hope it was always friendly! Did we ever chat about Sondheim in the Times comments?

Freddie · « **Reply #80 on:** January 15, 2025, 08:43:39 AM »

LOL, now I'm probably going to spend lunch time trying to find any old Times comments to sondheimgirl!

Uncooked black beans. Yes, I think that is one of my best food photos. Thank you.

Iris, did we already know each other on HHW back when you were posting in the Times comments?

Freddie · « **Reply #83 on:** January 15, 2025, 09:18:33 AM »

My search of my Times comments isn't coming up with anything for sondheimgirl, but it's fun seeing some of the old posts over the years!

Well, if we ever did disagree in the Times comments, just remember I didn't realize that you were Iris from HHW!

So I still have time for lunch: I'm getting a McDonald's burger and a Filet-o-Fish, and calling it surf 'n' turf.

For what it's worth, the crunchy layer at the bottom of paella is call socarrat. It can't be burnt and it can't be too loose. It's an important part of judging a paella competition.

Decided to go out this afternoon for the Covid booster. I'd intended to do it back in the late fall, then my schedule went crazy and then Nathan had Covid a few weeks ago so I had to let that pass. But it's ketchup time around here, and I'm getting that this afternoon.

I still need to get the shingles vax and I'll probably get the RSV, too. But I'm doing them one at a time. I know you can stack 'em, and DR Elmore just did two of them successfully, but if I'm to have any reaction at all (usually a day of mild fatigue), I just want to know which one was responsible.

Smart. I had RSV, covid and flu at the same time last year, and one definitely knocked me out.

Or maybe it was the cocktail of all three.

I'm up, I'm up - six and a half hours of sleep.
