SH> I have a big basket of the old figures that used to come in the
SH> tea as well.  They were played with by many kids and currently at
SH> the trailer for Vincent.

Yeah, I came across some of them when I was cleaning up my mom's
house for the estate sale. I grabbed a few of them and passed them
on to my granddaughter Neekha when she was a kid. Now my great
grandson has them.

SH> Rasberry twister is my current favorite.

I'm not familiar with it. Did you mean Celestrial Raspberry Zinger
by chance?  I too like their series of Zinger teas and currently
have the "wildberry" one.

To the others: the main flavour that predominates those blends is
hibiscus flowers.

Another cauliflower thing:

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Karnabeet Makly (Deep-Fried Cauliflower)
Categories: Appetizers, Middle east, Snacks, Vegetables
     Yield: 6 servings

     1 lg Cauliflower
     1 ts Salt
          Oil for deep fat frying
          Taratoor Sauce

 Cut away the thick stem at the base of the cauliflower and remove
 the green leaves.  Break the florets off the center core and cut
 the core into 1" cubes.  Wash the florets and cubes under cold
 running water. In a 3 to 4 qt enameled or stainless steel
 saucepan, bring 1 qt of water and the salt to a boil over high
 heat. Drop in the cauliflower and cook briskly, uncovered, for 10
 minutes, or until the pieces are tender but still somewhat
 resistant to the point of a small, sharp knife. Drain in a sieve
 or colander. In a heavy 10" to 12" skillet with a deep frying
 thermometer or in an electric skillet, heat 2" of oil until
 it reaches a temperature of 375F. Pat the cauliflower completely
 dry with paper towels, and a dozen or so pieces at a time, fry
 them in the hot oil for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown on
 all sides. As they brown, remove them with a slotted spoon and
 drain them on paper towels. They may be served hot or at room
 temperature covered with taratoor.

 Taratoor is an Arabic tahini, lemon juice and garlic sauce - JW

MMMMM


Cheers
