Some years ago, they were very popular and you'd see them in every grocery
store, either crispy or soaked in oil. I never see them here any more.

I tried using them a few times but never liked the end results. The tomatoes
always seemed to remain tough, no matter what I did.

I did like a product called Just Tomatoes. Looks like they are now called
Shop Karens naturals now. But they no longer sell the tomato powder. I liked
that a lot. Took up very little space in the counter and nice to add to
soup. Also liked their dried peppers but they are no longer either.

Can you still get sun dried tomatoes where you live?

Yes I bought two jars last week at the grocery store, packed in oil.
Once in a while I drain them on paper towels and use them either with
a chicken sauté or in a salad. The brand that I buy isn't tough.

I don't look for sun dried tomatoes because I dry my own, I can however,
buy them in oil. They are lovely and not at all tough.

I think you can get a big bottle of the stuff at Costco but that may change at any minute. I used it in stews, sauces, and pizza. It doesn't take long to use it up.

Hmmm... Maybe they moved where they are in the store. Used to be with the
produce.

I just wondered. Used to see a lot of them in the produce department. But I
never see them now.

That's how I remember them. Have not seen those. Haven't seen foods

I'm just glad that I had a package of pork chops because someone ate the

David is not part of this group but you constantly feel the need to
mention him. We know, Wayne. Reminds me of back - give or take a few
years of Woodstock, every damn time Joan Baez did a concert, she always
mentioned "my husband David." She mentioned her beloved husband every
time she talked in public. He was in jail for refusing the Vietnam war
draft.

Funny, once he got out of jail, they divorced. LOL!

Nothing at all related but when you constantly mention David, that's
what I think of.

PS - I don't judge lifestyles but I will judge your dessert of homemade
peach ice cream. Sounds fantastic.

Oh boy...I guess this post was a combination of good and evil from me.

Well, I never knew Mia, but I miss her too, for some reason her pics just

We all refer to our significant others, our pets, grandkids, etc. I refer to
mine as dh and do it often. I enjoy hearing about David and food preferences
of both of you. I also enjoy hearing about Ed's wife, Carol's daughter,
Ophelia's husband, and on down the line from all the posters.

Joan Baez covered it. The song was written by Robbie Robertson.

I agree, when folks keep it polite, I like to hear about one another's
family. I also rejoice in people finding one another and don't care at
all if it is a match that isn't the norm, as long as it works for them.

Meantime here's a simple one. Don just had another tooth pulled today.
He's never had good teeth and the toothpaste in Vietam era given to the
army guys may be least part of it I gather? Either way, like many at
his age, he is headed to full dentures eventually.

So, feeding him simple stuff tonight. Sashimi tuna with worstershire
and soy sauce for dipping, and a can of asparagus tips (he likes the
canned ones better generally). He's not super hungry but needs
something.

I left him lots of choices for tomorrow when I am at work too as he
won't feel like cooking. A simple 'rice porridge' with small cut
fishball and fake crab stuff, hard boiled eggs, a bread pudding that
isnt too sweet (can be eaten cold or warmed just a bit), a jar of
watermelon pickles (soft and easy and something his mother used to make
all the time and put up for the winter), a bottle of rum and some pepsi
;-)

I bet I come home to 1/2 bottle of rum, a few cans of pepsi, and him
asking me if there's more watermelon pickles!

Same here Wayne. Give David a wave from me and if either of you have
some soft comfort foods after a tooth extraction, I'd be happy to see
some new ones, but don't be upset if Don sticks to comfort foods right
now then looks the recipes over for later. He doesn't message on
computers but I can for him.

Steve, we are some very different people here. I have no issues if
some here have an alternate life partner in a stable relationship. We
see one another only online.

I figure that probably others who never mention a significant other
ever, don't have one (or at least not now). For some, it's the heart
touch of a pet.

Lol! I totally understand that, given my situation at the moment.
(Pickled herring after the rum wouldn't hurt... ;-D)
But I wouldn't toss your choice of comfort food, either!
Hope he's feeling better soon.

Bye, Sanne.

Every dentist appointment requires having a large jug of Kummel close

I sympathize with him. I hope he does well, no fun for sure. When dh had his
wisdon teeth pulled, lots of milkshakes, and like your Don, a few good belts
of whiskey instead of rum though, refused pain pills. As far as lifestyles
go, I really could not be more happy when others are happy with their
choices when it comes to loving someone.

heheh. I tend to love my animals even more than humans. Your pets love
you unconditionally and no exceptions.

Little Mia was the bestest friend and companion that I ever had. No
replacing her.

GT for that sympathy, Cheri. I'll get another but Mia will never be
replaced. She was the amazing best of the 4 that I've had.

With her, we actually crossed the boundries of man-vs-animal. She taught
me ferret language and I could communicate my wishes to her. We were
actually able to talk to each other. Go figure.

If there really is a God and Heaven scenario, she will be there waiting
for me. If not, I don't care where I go.

PS....there are valid reasons that I haven't adopted another yet. I
don't tell all here. Trust me, when the time is right I will get one or
more.

In my world, adopting a new pet is just like marriage. Until death do
us part. When I can commit to that, I will have more.]]

It's not about "replacement", Gary. No pet will "replace" Mia.
Question is, do you really want to take care of another pet?

The answer is either yes or no.

I have more expectations of the people, the dog never disappoints or
disagrees with me. LOL
