I thought he meant that the herd was a herd of steers.

Grin, I have all that SRD set. I even ended up with a duplicate of one
of them!

Grin, we are within 10 miles then. I'm a mile from Lynnhaven Mall
(they are redoing the food court there and IMHO it's not as nice yet
but once done may be nicer).

Check out the American Asian Grocery at VB BLVD and Great Neck if you
haven't. Favorite place of mine. Not overly 'Americanized' so you can
actually find real stuff you buy when living in Asia.

Funny you should mention that store. I've seen it and haven't gone
there yet but I've been planning to forever. Stay warm today. I just
put a nice cottage pie in the oven. I'll let the oven supply some of
the heat here for the next hour. :-D

Sorry to butt in...

My SO bought an acorn squash (copycat!) after I told him I'd roasted a
couple of them. He was complaining about the temps a few days ago. He
asked about cooking the squash, should he use the microwave or oven? I
said damn, when it's *that* cold of course use the oven for the extra
heat! Microwave is fast and works just fine, but don't bitch about the
cold temps when you can bake that squash and help heat the house.

Let me say I like most veggies, absolutely. I do not add honey or any
other sort of sweetener. Definitely not to winter squash. It's plenty
sweet simply roasted with butter and S&P.

You will never find me buying almond milk or soy milk. I am not lactose

I do not have to stick with white meats or skinless unfried foods. I
don't eat a lot of fried food anyway, although I did make some really
nice pan-fried catfish the other night. Guess what? Eating it didn't
bother me.

Crohn's does not require low fiber, aka "low residue" diet.

Sorry, but that sounds awful. I sure don't think of having rice balls
in the freezer as a "snack".

Yeah, I'll rush right out to look for dried red plum sauce. Because I
have an Asian market nearby. Oh wait, I don't. Doesn't matter, I'm not
interested in making rice balls.

Thanks, but I don't sit around snacking on dips or spreads. I sometimes
use chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans) when I make a nice spicy bean soup.

Greek yogurt... the marketers use to push PROBIOTICS. I cook with plain

Nope.

Why buy the fake stuff? I have no problem finding or eating real crab.
I live where crab and shrimp is an industry. It's not in season right
now but I wouldn't buy the fake stuff.
