Hi Dave,
RH> I know they're connected but just didn't care for King Rat as much.
RH> Whirlwind was quite interesting, whole different setting than Asia.
DD> Sadly, there won't be any more as Clavell felloff his twig in 1994.
I know, it makes me wonder what he and Michener would have written had
they lived longer.
DD> If nothing else it's a good research tool. I have to search the

DD> lest I wind up with dupes.
RH> That probably takes some time. (G)
DD> Less time than it would waste if it's a dupe.
True; some of my "savings" are on the old 5" floppies; I started with
the echo when we had the C-64. Don't know if Steve still has them or we
tossed them out with one of our moves after we went with PCs.
RH> We like what's called the Cornell recipe marinade, salad oil, egg, vinegar,
RH> salt (some people add pepper) and poultry seasoning. Marinade, then grill.
RH> A restaurant in central NY has become regionally famous specialising in
RH> chicken done this way. Recently talked with somebody

DD> I don't know that I'd drive that far just for a meal. Although if I

It's an hour from where I grew up; my family's eye doctor was there and
it was a big enough place for more/better shopping than the little town
we lived in (population about 850). For the last almost 3 years of his
life, my dad was in a nursing home there & we'd visit him on our way
to/from VT. We'd always have a meal at Brook's while we were there.
Knowing that Nancy was going to host a picnic at the pond one year, we
bought a bottle of their sauce. I also made my version; the consensus
was that the home made beat the commercial in taste. (G)
DD> If I marinade my chicken it's more likely to be something like this:
DD> Title: Buttermilk Fried Chicken
DD> Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Dairy, Chilies, Herbs
DD> Yield: 4 servings
That looks good but the way we do it keeps the kitchen cleaner and
cooler. (G)
