Gosh, it really was a long time ago, wasn't it Dan? I clearly need to have
another cook-in.

You know, after hearing you AND Dave Smith say this, I clearly need to give
it a try. It will well and truly have to be from someone who knows their
business though. Maybe I could presume upon Kay Hartman next time I had
down that way? Before I went to New Zealand, Kay cooked lamb (sans the
dreaded M stuff) for me so I would have a basis of comparison. Kay is
inarguably one of the best cooks in my acquaintance, but those NZers have
some FABULOUS lamb. Spoiled me for life.

You can invite me to dinner anytime, Dan :-) I promise to be on my best
behavior!

I even keep jars of it (well-hidden from my delicate eyesight) in the fridge
for such guests: one of the day-glo yellow stuff, and one that I'm told is
nicer. Not that I know, these lips haven't touched the stuff in decades. My
mom even makes devilled eggs for me sans mustard. I know, I know <sigh>....
