I might get him to eat them in soup, but not much else. Actually, he'd eat them, but only out of respect for the cook. Actually, I think he just doesn't like tortellini. In any version.

We're looking at -20 tonight. We love it > here, we love it here, we love it here. Keeps out the riffraff. Minus 18 degrees here this morning (that's -28°C), but not nearly as windy as last night. I had to go out and dig around in the garage and find the battery charger and use it to warm up the battery in Wife's car to make sure it would start. Of course my truck (parked on the street all night) started just fine without any help -- that's what trucks do. "Invigorating." That's what I keep telling myself. In a couple of weeks I plant the first of my pepper seeds, and that always helps. Best regards, Bob, where it has warmed up to -13°F |
