I'm sorry, I was a bit harsh in my reply about your gallery show and for
that I truly apologize. I'm not going to blame this on PMS or some other
female "problem", just saying I know I can be a real bitch and in this case
I was. I'm sorry, Michael. I hope you have a happy Labor Day.

You were harsh, but you were talking from the perspective of someone
who has a following and doesn't trust galleries to do the right thing.

Thanks for the sweet apology. I responded to your other post before I
saw this one, but I don't think I was too stung or stinging in my
reply.

Unfortunately I have to work on Labor Day. Alas.

True. He had a number of very expensive pieces stolen by the boyfriend of a
gallery owner in Minneapolis. She'd given the scumbag the keys. Then she
tried to claim it was a regular robbery even though only his paintings were
taken - CSI Minneapolis she ain't. She vamoosed from town shortly
afterwards. Then there was the other gallery owner who wouldn't let him set
prices on his own work - the owner wanted to set them way lower than what
LLL could sell them for by himself, without having to share 50% of the
(non)profit. So yeah, he doesn't much trust them. Not to mention, he owns
50% of a gallery himself so he knows how things should work.

Anyway, I am truly sorry for the things I said to Michael. Chalk it up to a
major bitchy moment.

OB Food: Looks like swiss steak today since I neglected to thaw anything
else Since Mom's recipe has diced tomatoes in it, and I've had
concoctions of zucchini with tomato sauce, I wonder if I should dice the
zuc's and throw them in when browning the onion, garlic and steak?

If you want them to be mush, do that; otherwise, I'd be tempted to brown
them first, separately, then dump them into the pan when the stuff is
about 5-10 minutes from done. Either way would be tasty.

Thanks! I just emailed you about this I'll probably brown them
separately as you suggest then add them in the last few. Don't want to fire
up the grill for just a few squash. And despite what the weather-folks are
saying, it looks like it might rain this afternoon, too.

Thank you for being gracious about it. I don't know what came over me.
Now, working on Labor Day is an oxymoron! Hopefully you'll have some good
eats when you get home

If you want zucchini in it (I wouldn't), wait until the end otherwise
they'll just be mush by the time your steak is ready.
