Good morning, all.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #33 on:** March 21, 2022, 08:10:06 AM »

Monday has settled in with undeniable force, and there's more to get done than I can say. I'm in dress rehearsals and performances every night this week, till Saturday's closing.

Vibes for BK and Company!

Vibes for DR Elmore's telephone call!

I have never had hominy. At least not to my knowledge, but I don't believe I ever heard it even mentioned in my family.

We did start eating grits when we moved to Florida in 1960, just regular old white grits that were served with breakfast literally everywhere, and on the rare occasion I get to have them now I still love them with butter, salt and pepper.

Yes, indeedy! ~~~MOST POSITIVE EVERLASTING VIBES~~~ for DR elmore3003 and his recording project!!!!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #38 on:** March 21, 2022, 08:20:13 AM »

In fact, I can probably declare pretty accurately to DR Ron Pulliam that my first grits were had in the Carolinas on our first drives down there from Ohio. By the time we were settled in Fort Lauderdale, grits were a regular thing for us. I certainly continued loving hash browns and such as an alternative, but I really took to being a South Florida Southerner in those days.

I must get on with my whirlwind day. Vibes to all.

I love hominy in pozole, a Mexican soup usually made with pork or beef. It’s served with lime, fresh cabbage or lettuce, avocado, radishes and more on the side and you top it to your taste.

John G. · « **Reply #41 on:** March 21, 2022, 08:29:49 AM »

I would love a bowl right now.

John G. · « **Reply #42 on:** March 21, 2022, 08:30:03 AM »

Does anyone deliver?

singdaw · « **Reply #43 on:** March 21, 2022, 08:32:31 AM »

Not hominy-related, directly, but I have seen a lot of chili recipes that use masa harina (corn flower) as a thickening agent.

John G. · « **Reply #44 on:** March 21, 2022, 08:42:44 AM »

Masa is a good thickener for chili, but use it sparingly. It can suddenly turn too thick on you. (Speaking from experience.)

John G. · « **Reply #45 on:** March 21, 2022, 08:54:52 AM »

I love a good film noir. Favorite actors in them include Richard Widmark, Ida Lupino, Robert Mitchum, Lizbeth Scott, Glenn Ford, John Payne, Raymond Burr, Robert Ryan and Dan Duryea. And, of course, Bogie and Bacall.

DR Jeanne I am glad you are getting stronger.

Yes, grits go with so many things. I love them with salt, pepper and butter. I love to mix in crumbled bacon or sausage. And adding cheddar cheese to them is a wonderful treat.

DR Ron thanks for the report on "A Dog's Purpose".

I have to tell you that the dog in question has a progression of lives and masters, one of whom is the primary and to whom the dog keeps returning.

With every passing, though, the tears flowed.

When I left the post office this morning, I decided to go for a walk.

The walk was pleasant enough, but the pollen was over-the-top. My eyes still water and my throat is scratchy.

Spring has sprung...with a vengeance, it seems.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #55 on:** March 21, 2022, 09:59:01 AM »

I enjoy film noir quite a bit, but my favorite may not be true noir...and that is "Laura".

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #56 on:** March 21, 2022, 10:00:23 AM »

I say it "may not be" true noir because it is so classic and so well-revered that it doesn't quite fit into that niche that noir fans appreciate...a film not well-remembered but which is dark and somewhat harshly realistic.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #57 on:** March 21, 2022, 10:00:36 AM »

But, what do I know?

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #58 on:** March 21, 2022, 10:00:56 AM »

My main impetus is to get us to the next page.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #59 on:** March 21, 2022, 10:01:06 AM »

One more does it, too.
