Thanks everybody! Karen, I was hoping to sneak this one past. Half century gone - yikes! How time flies when you don't know what the hell's going on. Tom (curmudgeon) cooked me a wonderful dinner of scallops and leeks in a cream sauce on a bed of fettucini. Linn (Bat Goddess) made me a sinful cake a la rum scauce, and no candles, thankyouverymuch. I'm as stuffed as a tick. Luckily, they didn't offer me a waffer-thin dinner mint.
