Hi Ben,
This is the first Cooking echo message since the beginning of the year.
The last couple weeks of 2025 were pretty quiet too--is nobody posting
or is there a hiccup in the system?
RH> It's all Greek to me. (G) Probably I could throw out a bunch of sewing
RH> terms and you would be just as confused.
BC> That could be fun. :) I actually know how to sew, though i haven't
BC> used a sewing machine in decades. I mainly sew by hand to repair
BC> clothes and use them way past their expiration date.
OTOH, I have 5 sewing machines, a serger and an embroidery machine
(Steve runs that, back story to that.) but one machine and the serger
get the most use. I've got enough projects to keep me going for years.
(G)
BC> BC> It turned out the program i tackled used a different
assembler. Not BC> Borland TASM but Eric Isaacson's A86 assembler. I
translated the code BC> and ran into a bug in Watcom's WASM assembler
version 1.9, the one BC> that ships with FreeDOS. It happens to be
fixed in the latest version BC> of WASM. It's about as much fun as
sewing up holes in socks, but then BC> i get to use those socks for a
few more years. BC>
If you say so...........
RH> Yes, haven't heard from the latter in years. Dale Shipp passed away last
RH> year; he and Gail isssued us a standing invitation for whenever we drove
RH> up north or came back down that we were welcome to stay with them. We had
RH> a number of good visits over the years before they moved into the assisted
RH> living place.
BC> I think i saw some of Dale Shipp's last messages. If i remember
BC> correctly, he gave me a bean salad recipe, and said his son used while
BC> in the military overseas. I think it's cool how the Fidonet
BC> picnic'ers remained long-term and long-distance friends.
One of the first recipies I printed off shortly after I joined the echo
in January, 1994 was posted by Michael Loo for Pseudo-Melinda's Hot
Sauce. Steve still makes it, altho not as regularly as he used to.
RH> Steve will sometimes use
RH> syrup, sometimes gravy, sometimes pb&j or other toppings, depending on
RH> what he sees in the fridge.
BC> Over this recent stint house sitting i made quite a few pancakes. My
BC> favorite was when i crushed home grown walnuts into the batter and
BC> topped them with honey. I also used a mixture of home grown plum &
BC> apple sauce as a topping. Sweet and tart.
Sounds interesting; the latter would be good mixed into plain yogurt.
BC> Have you ever tried Korean vegetable pancakes? They are savory
BC> instead of sweet and i recommend them.
We've not tried the vegetable pancakes but do enjoy seafood pancakes
every so often. Sometimes we'll order one, plus just one main dish and
take part of the pancake home to enjoy another time. Sam's Club had a
bag of mixed seafood in their freezer section a few years ago; we bought
one and had enough seafood for about 5 pancakes. A bit fiddly but they
tasted good. Guess I ought to see if they have it again.
