I think there is a misunderstanding here. You are most welcome to
him. But be very careful Adrienne. You are an innocent and I
would hate to see you upset. I have extensive reports from my
agents about him and ... well... let me just say... be careful!

Homemade? How expeditious! If you choose the 'shrooms properly, not only
can you have a tasty meal, you can get high at the same time! Hint: put a
little grass in the oregano just in case.

Risottos are quite cheap and simple to make at home. Jamie Oliver's
Italian cook book (can't remember the the name, but it might have been
"Jamie's Italy") has a very good chapter on risottos, which has helped me
expand my previously somewhat limited risotto repertoire[1]. My top
risotto recommendation from that book is his fennel, ricotta and chilli
risotto -- which is both creamy and delicious.

___
1. I used to do mushroom risotto and fennel risotto, and that's about it.

Nope, I just use regular mushrooms and parmigiano-reggiano. I don't
like the other kinds, and 'shrooms never did anything to me except give
me a bad taste in my mouth. For me it's the wine - one glass for the

Well, my own culinary skills are like nil, although I once used to know how
to make popcorn. However, that doesn't mean I can't appreciate an
ingestible delicacy, especially when it's cheap. But preparing it is out
of the question. "Man hunts the food, woman serves the food." -The
natural order of things, amen.

Well, to be honest, I've never even seen a hallucenigenic mushroom -
wouldn't know one from a rocky mountain oyster with hemorrhoids standing
on its head. But I like the regular kind, particularly with sausage on
pizza.

If you're really a good cook, you could perhaps start a TV show called
"The Tipsy Gourmette". Makes more sense than "The Galloping Gourmet",
don't it?

They look like regular mushrooms, only they have a green tinge to them,
and they taste NASTY. A long time ago, before there was a Galaxy far,
far away, I was living in Laurel Canyon, and there was a nice older
American Indian gentleman who had a large grocery bag filled with the
things. Curious, I tried one - yuk! - and nothing for my trouble.
Turned out he was the grandfather of a very famous (at the time), kung
fu actor. who had recently destroyed his house in Laurel Canyon - I saw
the toilet that had been knocked off it's foundation in a rage.

I AM a really good cook, but I don't think I would want my own show.
That would involve a lot of standing up, under lights, for many hours a
day. I prefer making an incredible meal, serving it to friends, and
hearing them say "Wow! That's the best [dish name] I've ever had!".
Then I clean up, and have another glass of Chuck, and bask in my
accolades.

Honestly, in your place, I don't think I would have tried it. I tend to
be pretty conservative when it comes to things like that, and besides,
many Indians still hold a grudge for being shooed off their ancestoral
lands by the White Eyes. Furthermore, I wouldn't want to do anything
silly that would compromise my respect for toilets. Ya never know when
you'll need one...

But think of the glamour, the fame, the money, the hunks with a healthy
appetite! Still, I suppose there is _something_ to say for domestic
tranquility. What it is, though, who knows. Btw, I've heard of
Chardonnay, Zinfendel, Burgundy, Port, Ripple and all kinds of wines, but
what the heck is "Chuck"? I have to aver that it doesn't sound exactly
like the epitome of class in upper-echelon wine circles or even
rhombuses. I hope you're not one of them middle-aged housewives who
boozes it up to drown the sorrows of youthful dreams lost or merely
because being smashed seems like a lot of fun whether you're smashed or
sober. There is simply no future in alcohol (-unless you're an
automobile, of course.)

Wine made from the forequarter of cattle?

Hmm, possibly, but I sure hope it doesn't have a bovine bouquet...

Does the name describe how you serve it, or what happens after you drink
it?

Yeah but it's only 2 bucks if you live in California, land of fruits and
nuts. It's likely 3 bucks or more if you live anywhere else. What a
ripoff.

Nope, just frugal. For cooking, Two Buck Chuck is fine. I'm not a
housewife, I'm a single mother - thus the need for being frugal, but still
with good taste.

Salute - my highest respects for being a single parent. I'm sure it isn't
easy.

I think it was Ed Mullen who left a Google link for Two Buck Chuck.
Suprising to me, that wine has garnered some respect in the wine world.
Even won a few prizes against much more expensive competitors.
