It was lovely. And the food I schmoozed off you I ate for then next 3 days, so thanks for the quinoa and edamame. Salmon's something I've only eaten as an adult because while we ate almost every type of food you can think of when I was growing up, we rarely had fish unless grandpa had some luck. But I thought it was fine, so don't beat yourself up :) I like that you tried something new that caught your eye.<BR/><BR/>FW2: good luck with the soup spices now that you've found out hubby has the "cilantro tastes like soap" gene.<BR/><BR/>PSA: I'm planning a kitchen remodel and bought a dorm fridge to use until I could decide which fridge I want (and can then afford). I *really, really* want a french door opening fridge over a lower freezer, and there's a particular freezer combo I like but I don't know if I can justify the extra cost. Until then, I have the shoebox freezer that is really only good for chilling vodka as things tend to melt in it. It's a fairly useless freezer. But I'm having fun training myself not to open 4 dozen condiments when I could get by with only 4. And the remodel is imminent so I don't want to get a new fridge that just gets damaged first thing if someone's careless. But I miss having a freezer and completely understand where you are coming from.CrankyOtterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02863609824154763580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434495502175776916.post-77011444927120612742007-07-14T16:27:00.000-07:002007-07-14T16:27:00.000-07:00'Once I have a real freezer' ah freezer envy I rem...'Once I have a real freezer' ah freezer envy I remember it well. Until recently I lived in a flat that had a tiny kitchen so my 'freezer' was the size of a shoebox. Now I occassionally wonder through to my new kitchen and just stare at the freezer (yes most people who have seen me do this think I'm slightly deranged)<BR/><BR/>LPSAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03582507849996632115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434495502175776916.post-83161479471886429432007-07-14T12:21:00.000-07:002007-07-14T12:21:00.000-07:00I can't taste spices.

Flavour yes - there's no such thing as too much garlic - most of the time... but hot sauce... no thanks.<BR/><BR/>S.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3434495502175776916.post-22279847735575000262007-07-14T11:17:00.000-07:002007-07-14T11:17:00.000-07:00You're so funny.

Was really disappointed with the salmon when you and Sheri were over. It's always tricky to try something new especially with people whose food preferences you're not sure about. Live and learn, eh? Next time I'll season the hell out of it for Sheri and myself and let you season your yourself. <BR/><BR/>At least the company was stellar :)<BR/><BR/>KaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
