Hi Dave,


DD> We also have to the north of town Seaney Farms, who have a huge truck
DD> garden and a greenhouse-like farmstand set up in Sherman, IL at the
DD> intersection of Business I-55 and Andrew Road. Also Jefferies Orchard
DD> which offer U-Pick as well as pick-it-for-you fruits and vegetables.

RH> Sounds like places to become a regular customer at.

DD> I use Suttill's more than the others if only to poke a finger in the
DD> eye of the officious twits who don't understand "grandfathered in" for
DD> the reason thatb there's an active, working farm within the city
DD> limnits.

Other towns in our area have markets also but they usually conflict with
the hours of ours or are otherwise inconvenient. Besides, we're "home
folks" at this market--got to know the regular vendors quite well.


DD> I've never made this - but I've had it served to me. Quite nice.

DD>       Title: Galloping Horses (Thai Appetizer)
DD>  Categories: Oriental, Pork, Nuts, Chilies, Fruits
DD>       Yield: 9 Servings

RH> Looks like something I'd try, never seen it that I can recall on a Thai
RH> menu or at an Asian pot luck.

DD> I can only get it at Magic Kitchen - which was the first Thai
DD> restaurant in town. They serve very authentic Thai food. Including
DD> Thai heat levels unless one chickens out and orders "mild".

I'd probably go with the mild. Had a Thai bowl of something (forgotten
what it was) in a mall in Hawaii--started mild but got hotter the more I
ate of it. Steve had to finish the last few bites; my mouth was on fire.
