Today I am expecting 75-|F for a high temp. Then we slide down to highs
in the mid 30-|F range for the weekend.

Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get. Where I work I
always assume that the customer has air conditioning as I look up his
parts. Unless the car is on old "beater". But, I always ask. I can count
on the fingers of one hand the times I have missed the target on that.

Looks good. Here's one I make w/shrimp. Scallops/crab/etc. would go well
in it, too. I also do a cheater version using cream of mushroom soup in
place of the Half & Half. Never any leftovers.  Bv)=
