Hi Ben,

Some are suggestions, with some of them being a lot broader in scope of
actual expiration than others. I'd not want to drink 10 year old milk
(unless it's UHT proccessed) but a 10 year old vinegar might be a bit
sharper than a more recent vintage but still good.

I'm gradually improving, still not doing a lot beyond basic routine
things. Last night I put some Lundberg rice blend into our rice cooker
and we had it with chicken and cashews that Steve brought home from our
local Chinese place. Left overs will probably be supper tonight. I still
have a few days of meds and then have a (routine) appointment with my
pulmonology doctor next week.

RH> Looks good but Steve can't eat corn.

 BC> I forgot about that dietary restriction.

It's such an uncommon one that most people do forget about it. I've
forgotten to read labels a few times and come home with something he
can't eat...........but usually I can, at a time when he'd got a supper
meeting.


 BC> Last night i ate fajitas for dinner, roughly based on the following
 BC> recipe.  We omitted the lettuce, added sliced crookneck & zucchini,
 BC> used home-grown oregano, and added fresh diced tomatoes, cilantro,
 BC> and yogurt.  Delicious!

We'll pass on the cilantro but otherwise it sounds good. Steve will eat
miniscule amounts of cilantro if it can't be avoided; I will eat more
but not a whole lot. At our favorite Mexican restaurant in in Hawaii,
Steve would ask for his dish to be made with no cilantro; I'd ask for a
small amount. We'd get the food and I'd pull out probably half a dozen
or more big leaves of that stuff--makes you wonder how much was in their
regular cooking. Meals were always good except for that.

Now you've got me hungry for Mexican. (G)
