Weird but tasty: bite-size bacon, bite-size tomatoes with the snot
removed, white-bread croutons. itty-bitty pieces of lettuce, and a
dressing of mayo and a bit of white vinegar to make it runny.

BTW, I took your suggestion (I think it was yours) for a sardine
spread: mashed up the remaining half tin and tossed it with chopped
onion, lemon squirts and mayo, and spread it on some nondescript
crackers. Good. Good enough so that I'll do it again with some
designer crackers.

Likewise, yer suggestion sounds like a BLT, but if you add white-bread
croutons, that covers the bread/sandwich option. How do you eat it?
Like a salad, with a fork/spoon?

Mashing quality sardines is as wasteful as mashing rolled anchovy.
When you buy quality sardines you're mostly paying for someone to
choose perfect undamaged ones and to sort them to the same size and
place them neatly head to toe.

Jes buying rolled anchovies is a waste of money. Besides, they suck!
You claim to be a gourmand, but rolled anchovies are packed in salted
oil and all you can taste is the salt. Even the caper flavor is
overwhelmed.

Shel baby, go out and find some canned packed-in-salt anchovies.
Rinse the salt off and enjoy. You'll be amazed at how un-salty they
are (strange, but true!). Only, beware.... that's what brought my gout
to full bloom. I was eating a couple dozen per night (that good!)
with beer. It was my gout undoing. Anchovies are death to gout
sufferers.

Did I miss it? No one has sardines and cream cheese?

The favorite around here is a sardine and cream cheese sandwich with
sliced tomato and sweet onion. It is one of my DH's favorite sandwiches.

When we lived in New Jersey, sourdough rye (a/k/a Jewish rye) was the
go-to bread. Now it's low-carb wheat bread :-(

Two of my favorite foods but I never thought of combining them. It
will be a change from the usual cream cheese and black olives.

Cream cheese? I will try that next time. Mine is mayo, sardines,
onions and thin slices of Fuji apple. Now I can't wait to try cream cheese.

It really is good.

My favorite way to eat sardines was to get good quality ones and eat
them right out of the can then to dip some nice, dense bread in the oil.
Unfortunately what agreed with me when I was 30 won't any longer.

Oily, salty, fishy, YUM! I don't eat them but 2-3 times a year but to
me a tin of rolled anchovy with ice cold Crystal Palace is a real
treat.

I'm not sure, but seems to me there was a shooter called a Brain
Hemorrhage or Brain Tumor that was a caper-rolled anchovie in the
bottom of a shot glass full of vodka or tequila. Always meant to try
that.

I chance an anchovie something only about once a year. <sigh>

Needs avocado!

(Today is the last day of California Avocado Week. Lin and I enjoyed an
avocado-centric dinner at a local restaurant on Tuesday. The biggest
surprise was the *wonderful* avocado panna cotta for dessert.)

The only exception to this true and sad rule is hen you get a freshly
made jar, and with big bucks stores that's just impossibile. I have been
lucky only once, when this friend came from Sicily with a lot of jars of
rolled anchovies made few days before in a workshop in his town down
there, with fresh cucunci capers. That was the only time I really
enjoyed rolled anchovies, they were awesome.

These must be universal things: my love for sardines caused the

and pyramids of butter

Things change as we get older. I think it stinks. I used to eat all
kids of spicy food, and now I get heartburn.

Ain't that weird. I can still eat very hot spicy Mexican, Thai, or
Indian food with nary a burp, but a pizza or some plain ol' spaghetti
absolutely wrecks me. I'll be waking up all throught the night to
gobble more Tums after eating most any tomato sauce. :|

Cooked tomatoes are what ruin me too. In any form. I take Omeprazole
each day and that keeps all but the worst case heartburn away.

If I eat even tomato sauce early enough in the day, I'm ok. It gives
me a tad of heartburn, but if I lay down, forgetaboutit, volcanic
heartburn.

It still beats the alternative. When I wake up alive, it just tickles

The family curse of GERD doesn't help much, either.

BTW, I never got your email.

Now that you mention it, you are right. One day for lunch, I ate
jalapenos that were filled with Monterrey Jack, then wrapped in bacon
and cooked. I ate 4 of them, but I did not get heartburn. If I eat
tomato sauce, onions or green peppers, I get it. And those are my
favorite foods. Ratz.

You're outta luck then, as the latest trend is putting "Calabrian chili
oil" on pizzas ... usually on top of the dough but below the tomato
sauce and cheese.

George is ready to move to the RGV, in fact, he can't wait, but I am
putting the brakes on things, for now. My oldest son, who lives in
Clear Lake (Houston), has a serious girlfriend and I am waiting to see
if they intend to have children or not. If they do, I want to be near
them so I can watch the baby when she goes back to work. They will be
here for the 4th of July weekend, so we will have to talk about it.

Hmm, this reads like something that should have been personal email.
Anyway, name the first one after me.
