    I'll try to finger out how to get pixtures off of my smart-ass phone
    and e-mail you some shots. If I was any wider across the shoulders
    toturn sideways to get between the ice-box and freezer (the tops of
    which are used as counter stash as well.

    I'll do the same. I will try to do that today.

    I'm going to ask my house-mate's kid. He's a whiz with cell phones. I
    got a mice phone at a rummgae sale that was locked to a different (from
    AT&T) company. He performed what he called a "jailbreak" on it and I
    used it up until there was no non 5G cell service left.

    weren't for the smooth top electric stove there would be no prep
    space at all.

    I work with the old style stove top and still use it as prep space.
    Just throw a big ass cutting board on top. It's really a horrible kitchen.

    And having a house-mate who is a pack-rat doesn't help the situation
    at all.

    I used to be that way, now my things are mostly thrown out or sometimes Andrea puts them in storage. Mostly I just tell her I don't care and
    to throw it all out.

    ... Nationalise crime, and make sure it doesn't pay.
    SWIPE! Another tag-line in the file.

    I can't believe you've been able to swipe a couple in the last week, I
    use the same tagline file... Though I'm using a different manager so
    that may be why.

    I've got (currently - just looked) 4644 taglines in two categories - cooking/culinary and general. Snagging taglines is pretty easy in Synch
    Term. Except if the tagline I want is in a message entered by SLMR. Then
    I have to resort to brute force (type it in) to add it. Bv)=

    ... Love your neighbour... Just don't get caught.

    Awreddy got that one. Bv)=

    Nice. You got it working as we laughed at each other's kitchens via
    email. :)

    Title: Georgian Funeral Rice (Shila Plavi)
    Categories: Lamb/mutton, Vegetables, Rice, Wine, Cheese
    Yield: 4 servings

    2 tb Vegetable oil
    12 oz Boneless lamb leg or loin;
    - trimmed, in 1/2" chunks
    1 1/2 ts Salt; more to taste
    1 lg Onion; fine chopped
    1 1/2 c Short-grain rice
    1 tb + 1 ts caraway seeds; fine
    - ground
    1 tb Fresh ground pepper; more
    - for garnish
    1 ts Dill seeds (opt)
    3/4 c Dry wine
    3 1/4 c Meat stock; divided
    1 Bay leaf
    3 tb Unsalted butter; room temp
    1 c Coarse grated pecorino;
    - more for garnish

    To a pot set over high heat, add the oil. When itΓÇÖs
    shimmering and hot, add the lamb, sprinkle with the
    salt, and cook, stirring every minute or so, until
    browned with a few pink spots remaining, about 5
    minutes. Turn the heat to medium-high, add the onions,
    and cook, stirring occasionally, until theyΓÇÖre soft and
    translucent (but not browned), about 7 minutes more.

    Add the rice and cook, stirring continuously, until
    coated in oil and translucent, about 2 minutes. Stir in
    the caraway, black pepper, and dill seeds if using, then
    pour in the wine and cook, stirring continuously, until
    the liquid has mostly evaporated, about 1 minute more.
    Turn the heat to high and add 1┬╜ cups of the stock and
    the bay leaf. When the liquid boils, turn the heat down
    to maintain a strong simmer and cook, stirring every
    minute or so, until most of the liquid has evaporated,
    6-8 minutes. Add the remaining stock, return the liquid
    to a boil, then simmer, stirring frequently, until the
    rice is cooked to your liking, about 8 minutes for al
    dente or 11 for soft. Remove from the heat.

    Add the butter and pecorino and stir until both have
    melted, about 1 minute. Season the shila plavi with salt
    to taste, then serve immediately, sprinkled with more
    pecorino and black pepper.

    NOTE: An equal weight of ground lamb, though
    nontraditional, may be substituted with excellent
    results.

    Nobody knows how shila plavi came to be associated with
    funerals-even Georgian food historians are stumped. But
    if Occam's razor is to be believed, it's probably
    because the dish is so deeply soothing that it makes a
    wonderful balm against hardship and grief. So live a
    little, and eat Georgian funeral rice.

    Whatever works! I use emclient on the PC and phone so I just used my
    normal email client. I did use the gmail for the phone for many years.

    Yeah I have a node number for Fido and Micronet. I wrote a program that manages all the nonsense for me. It's better for me in the summer when
    I'm in the woods on a cell signal that is patchy at best.

    The BBS was on auto pilot for so long... It was just sad to leave it
    running any longer.
