resp:95 - it is true that when we go to Sze-chuan West, my mother asks for
"so spicy it makes tears run down my face." And then it's *almost* hot
enough.

The northern Chinese preserve just about everything for the winter, which
might be why they got used to the salt.
White pepper is made from black pepper with the skins removed.

resp:100 yes, of course.
resp:101 That is not completely accurate. Joy of Cooking, p. 576 (2nd
ed.)-- "The white is made from the fully ripe berry from which the
dark outer shell is buffed before the berry is ground... Black pepper
is obtained from the *underripe, fermented, sun-dried whole berries.*
(emphasis mine)"

Looks like we are both right, then. Thanks for looking this up.

Not just the Chinese did preservation for the winter, the Koreans have
Kimchi from that as well. Ok, now I want some Korean food...

Had a half-triple walk today:
kaplan, mutsie and barney started nearly punctually. aruba, danr, and myself
about 5-10 minutes later. some point thereafter, valerie, janc, arlo and
kendra arrived, and went the other way. we all met at the dam, and walked
back together along what I'm told is 'the normal route' (counter-clockwise).
Krokus arrived at some rather later point, had his own adventure in the
forest, then retreated to the parking lot to wait for us all.
Ken will do the lunch, because there were several people I can't remember the
names of. . .

(I want to hear more about krokus's adventure in the forest. Did
it involve bows and arrows and a band of merry men?)

Don't know what krokus found last week, but apparently it moved to Gallup this
week and ate everyone. Arrived shortly after 1030; saw no-one. Waited till
about 1110, walked up to Geddes Rd, which I reached by 1140; still saw nobody.
Left at 1205. . . .

We've got Valerie's sister & kids visiting this weekend. We could have
walked, but it would have been three parents to four assorted infants and
toddlers in strollers, and we lacked the gumption.

re 110-112
No meery men, bows, arrows, ogres, donkeys, nor Heffalumps. Only Woozles.
And a really cute Husky puppy.

Almost forgot to mention, I was going to be at the walk, but I turned
off my alarm clock, instead of hitting "snooze" Whoops.
I won't be around the next couple of weekends, gotta go work for your
tax money. :)
