Julie, I think I've figured out the little game you've been playing
with us.

You started the pasta salad thread by complaining that your salads
were so big you had to throw some away. Then you repeatedly dismissed
suggestions offered, citing your and your daughter's "allergies" and
specific food dislikes, shopping difficulties, storage, and so on.

Ah! And then, having started the thread and kept it going for weeks,
you played your winning card -- by whining that the thread had gone on
too long, and asking that the subject be dropped.

Well played, Julie, well played.
