That Martini Spritzer is a great idea, BobL. Slice of lemon or lime?

I have retired the blender to the basement, but banana smoothies are such a good idea that I might just haul it upstairs to the kitchen again.

Even in summer, my favourite comfort food is a large cup of cocoa made with whole milk and Fry’s cocoa powder. I tried several more expensive brands — Callebaut and Ghirardelli (sp?) in particular — but Fry’s delivers the slight bite I like at an acceptable price.
