Frank, I know she was joking, I was too. I doubt there was anything malicious coming either way... I hear ya about the salad. Matter of fact, I'm going to have to be very careful when I come off this fast, because I've been fantasizing about foods I haven't even thought of in a long time prefast and if I go and get my fix of all of them, I may as well take a post-recovery fast, so, we'll see. I'm not hungry as I told her, I'm just dreaming of all these different foods. My greek salad(which a 3 diamond hotel room service where i used to work adopted the recipe as their own) is one of the first real meals I'lll have post recovery. Just a massive greek salad.

Numbers, i dunno your names, so you are now number to me. Did your mom happen to make stuffed peppers with the same stuffing as the galuptsi? I love those too. My older brothers used to work @ O'Charleys about a decade ago or so and knew I loved the "B&B Nachos" O'Chalreys used to serve(IMO, no other nachos have ever come close) and they crawfished on getting me some, no matter how I'd plead, until I would get my braces tightened, then proceed to eat them in front of me because I oculdn't. So not only could was I in some heavy pain(I suspect my orthodontist was the dental reincarnation of Marquis de Sade), but I also could not eat what was at the time my favorite food. Salt in the wound. Do the same to her sometime, give her a taste of how it feels when she cant eat for some reason, then prepare her favorite.
