I enjoy breakfast for supper sometimes. One of my favourites is what I
call a "pancake sandwich" 2 eggs, breakfast meat and 2 eggs - sandwiched
bewtwwon 2 8" to 9" pancakes (or waffles). No taters needed.

And not so medieval but good reading nonetheless ...

I know. At least not to Steve. But it's easy and very good. Is there no
antidote for his allergy. My mom was allergic to both strawberries and
bananas - which she really liked. A 50mg Benadryl capsule solved her
problem. I'm allergic to bananas and cannibanoids. I don't like 'nanners
anyway and the marijuana allergy got me out of the 60s pretty well whole.
