digest#182: Mel's stew, nectar,

[Guest guest]

Donna, thanks for pointing me in the right direction

for the crab cakes recipe.

 

Melissa, yes mail me some stew! *jk* Your creation

sounds wonderful. When i lived alone i had a tough

time not cooking too much food as well. Just freeze

it all in single servings and you will be so glad to have

it for quick meals.

 

Thank you so much for the answer to my agave nectar

question, Debra. i love how you described it. i used to

eat the ends off the honeysuckle blossoms when i was

a kid. Yum!

There's a schizoid quality to our relationship with animals,

in which sentiment and brutality exist side by side.

Half the dogs in America will receive Christmas presents

this year, yet few of us pause to consider the miserable life

of the pig -- an animal easily as intelligent as a dog --

that becomes the Christmas ham.

~ Michael Pollan, professor and writer (1955- )
