  1. We who choose to surround ourselves with lives more temporary than our own

    Live within a fragile circle

    Easily and often breached.

    Unable to accept its awful gaps

    We still would live no other way.

    We cherish memory as the only certain immortality.

  2. Grilled eggplant, zuccini, roasted peppers, mushroom and asparagus. Green leaf salad with grilled apples, pears and raspberry vinagrette. Spanikopita spinach phyllo triangles. Baked brie wrapped in puff pastry stuffed with apricots. Brick oven round bread stuffed with hummus surrounded by toasted pita triangles. And an ice cold brewskie to wash it all down.

    WOW!

    You live in the Greek Isles or what?

    I'm impressed.

  3. Awww what a cool pet! Hoping my equine doesn't last 30 years though

    30 is pretty average for donkeys, not so much for horses. Horses are more delicate to colic and that sort of thing. Luckily we didn't have to nurse him through any type of long illness. He was fine in the morning, and was gone that afternoon.

    We should all be so lucky.

  4. Had this thread on another MB I used to frequent. It lasted a long time, so figured what the heck...I would try it here.

     

    Myself...I bought some mandarin orange chicken at Trader Joe's last week. They were chicken nugget kinda things, and I just pulled them out of the freezer a few at a time, and while they were OK, they just didn't taste real "orangey" to me. When I went to cook the last ones, lo and behold, there were 2 packets of mandarin orange sauce in the bottom of the bag!

    So I am having mandarin orange pork chops tonight.

    A good buddy of mine lives in Bend and helped start that brewery back in about 1980. I was drinking Deschutes back when it was still an "in house" craft brewery. I got my interest in brewing by visiting him, and hanging out there. Every now and then a UPS truck shows up with a few "samples" he thinks I should critique.
