I saw some TV program in the 80s --'N.Am TV'-- that showed two solid hours of a trip through a cattle slaughter house. Don't know if it was PBS, or what, but it was definitely graphic and it was definitely shown on my home TV. Hey, we had nothing else.  nb |

Somebody posted a pic the other day on a local restaurant group of their plate of food at an Italian place.

Agree! OTOH, I'd like to address the original subject, What do you eat with salmon? My fave accompaniment to salmon is asparagus. It's practically a fated deal! Salmon/asparagus quiche, en papillote, salmon w/ asparagus sauce: <https://greatchefs.com/recipes/salmon-with-asparagus-sauce/> Worth every second of prep! Bring yer own heart doctor. nb |

It doesn't. But sometimes I have something like a really tall sandwich or burger and if you don't stick something through it, it will come apart while trying to carry the plate. Other times I use these things to annoy people. |

I have some. Also little frilly toothpicks and plastic swords". Oh good for you. Sure sounds like you and Sheldon are stuck in the 1980's with those paper umbrellas and fancy frilly tooth picks. I'm not decorating using plastic crap I bought at the dollar store. It has nothing to do with plating food attractively. Jill |

Hmmm. It doesn't. "But sometimes I have something like a really tall sandwich or burger and if you don't stick something through it, it will come apart while trying to carry the plate. Other times I use these things to annoy people." My impression has always been she doesn't like hamburgers. I can't quite believe she'd cook burgers that were fancy and thick enough to require a fancy tooth pick through the top. Seems like that's the last thing she'd cook. She is right about one thing. Those huge stacked sandwiches are hard to handle. I don't prepare or eat anything like them. Never anything that requires decorative tooth picks to hold it together, either. She (and Sheldon) wondered why I don't have little paper umbrellas and frilly tooth picks. What?! Why would I, indeed. Jill Jill |

A change in my medications is being made to address a disorder I have been experiencing this summer.

I apologize for being disruptive, in a better state of mind this was generally not an issue for me. |
