Changing Names / was yummy dinner recipe

Good for you! Mamas on the list are taking notes as they read your post! I'm

playing with

alternate names - depending on how many consonants and syllables one wants to

get

one's tongue around: pastas de la berenjena con parmesano; pasta della melanzana

con

parmigiano - blah blah blah. The point I'm making is not a point about

translations (and I

think mine are faulty anyway) - it's in support of the point *you* are making:

Kids

sometimes need a change of name and/or change of taste to be delighted in eating

the

very thing they've been told by their peers to despise. Wow - what

sophistication -

eggplant parmesan and the kids love it! You'll make gourmet vegetarians out of

them yet -

and then sit back in your old age, many years from now, and delight in the

riches their

fame is bringing you! Or at least you'll know that you started them on the path

to good

health and compassionate living.
