Does "sliing" involve some Eastern European booze of some sort...? I'm
not at all sure I've ever sliied. Well, maybe that once in Prague, but
there are no photos left, so I can deny it now.

A word to the wise: If Barbara really was sliing last night, I would
just ignore it. I well remember the last time she did this and it was....

Sorry, I believe that I am not at liberty to say anything more.

I wonder if I meant to say I'm slipping. Ya think? Jayzuzz, it took me
a longer while to figure out what you're talking about with the sliing.
.. . I thought you were referring to that evil poison known as
slivovice. Ever hear of another poison called Becherovka? B is
regarded as a "woman's drink" -- it's sweet and clove-flavored. It'll
also put you under the table if you're not careful. In 1990, I was
about four sheets to the wind and had to run for a train in Humenne,
Czechoslovakia. Oh, muther. To make it worse, Niece Jo was asleep in
the bunk above me but had put her fanny pack on a chair or something --
anyway, somehow I took it upon myself to make sure it was safe. She's
sawing logs and I'm keeping one eye open, while the train stopped in
every village between Humenne and Bratislava. Chug chug chug
screeeeeeech JOLT! Chug chug chug screeeeeeech JOLT! Then a woman
joined us at one of the stops and proceeded to peel off her clothes
right at my nose level. BO. Oboy. Chug chug chug chug screeeeeeeeeech
J O L T. Coulda killed Jo. Haven't had Becherovka since. OK, maybe a
couple times. Under supervision. Mama didn't raise no fool.

Who adds uncooked barley to canned soups!?
Obviously the market was stocked by people who
don't know food/cooking?

That's where I would put it, too, but I think most supermarkets put it with the
cereal. Wherever it is that they put it, I always have a terrible time finding
it. I don't buy it often enough to remember where it's stocked.

It makes a nice pilaf and is a welcome addition to beef or lamb soup I
would never think of looking for it where the cereal is. It's barley, not
oats!

But it's grain, so I can see the loose connection -- and some folks use
it as a breakfast food -- like oatmeal.

Only if they are near the rice. Come on, all the
grains should be together and all the beans and
lentils should be together, but I think it would
be good if they were right next to each other.

It would also be cool if tomato paste and tomato sauce were in the same
aisle. Supermarkets should adopt an international layout standard, so
lazy-ass shoppers like myself could shop in any unfamiliar store and know
exactly where everything is. (Can you tell I hate shopping?).
