I wonder sometimes if in 20 years nursing homes will be serving Pad Thai
and pizza. Probably not. It's easier to slop out bland stuff from

I have the rice but have yet to make it. I thought that cardamon might
be a good spice to use. My grandmother always used nutmeg but Mum
didn't. One aunt used to add a bay leaf to the milk.

he only knows what his momma and poppa knew and they only knew what

Apart from anything else, the stink of sprouts overcooking is ghastly.

just plain nasty when overcooked. Broccoli is one of my favourite

terrible.
