Hi Dave,
DD> Centennial was very good also. Looking at the bibliography I did not
DD> realise that he had written so many novels
RH> I've got a good number of them, mostly in paperback as they were
RH> accumulated while Steve was in the Army. Found Alaska on the free table
RH> at ReStore. Nook abridges them so I'm keeping my hard copy collection.
DD> So does Reader's Digress. AFAIK Kindle doesn't do that unless it tells
DD> you up front.
Nook tells you in its store that it is abridges, saves me money. I need
to transfer some of my other paperback to the Nook, clear off a shelf or
2. (G)
DD> Toaster ovens are nice. In addition to my convection toaster oven I
DD> have an air-fryer that I bought in a weak moment (succumbed to the
DD> hype).
RH> We've not bought one of those yet, intrigued, but not interested enough
RH> to buy one. Plus, there's the storage space issue; I'd have to give up
RH> something else and don't want to do that.
DD> Swap out your current toaster oven for a convection toaaster oven and
DD> put it in the same cunter space. Then send the old unit to your
DD> chruch's or Habitat's op-shop. But, be warned, there is a learning
DD> curve on
DD> air-frying. Bv)=
DD> Late edit - disregard that paragraph. I see feom the following post
DD> that your toaster over in a convection/air fryer already. Still good
DD> advice.
True, Steve took a quick look at an air fryer at Costco yesterday, told
him that we don't need it. Fine with him as he's used the toaster oven
on convection various times.

Easier just to buy a bag of sweet potato fries. That's what we do as I'm
not especially fond of sweet potatoes. My mom's mom used to do the
candied, with marshmallows every year for Thanksgiving and every year my
parents made us take some. It was always the consistancy of baby food
and overly sweet; to this day I don't know if any of my siblings can
look at a sweet potato civilly. I can look at it, bake it, serve it, but
not eat it.
