I get them off my Kindle when I'm finished reading. I just tap "remove
download" on the home page menu. It's still listed on the Amazon website
on the Digital Content page. I have (currently 25 pages of books) The
books I've read ae noted as "READ". And if I'm offered a book that looks
interesting and I click on it to get it it's obvious if I already have
that title.

And lots easier. My favourite breakfast 'taters are the little square
cubes - sometimes called cottage fries or hash browns (not the shredded
ones) with a garlic-butter sauce lightly applied.

Ever do them in th \e microwave?

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

     Title: Garlic Butter Sauce
Categories: Five, Vegetables, Herbs
     Yield: 12 Servings

     4 tb Chopped garlic
          Garlic granules; optional *
    14 oz Can chicken broth
   1/2 lb Butter; cold, diced
          +=OR=+
     1 c  Butter flavoured oil
     4 tb Flat leaf parsley; chopped
          - very small

 * if the sauce is not "garlicky" enough for your
 taster add some garlic granules until the desired
 degree of pungency is reached. -- UDD

 In a small saucepan, over medium heat, combine the
 garlic and broth.

 Bring to a boil and reduce by half.

 Whisk in the butter, 1 cube at a time, until all of the
 butter is incorporated and the sauce coats the back of
 a spoon.

 Add the parsley and mix well.

 Really great on breakfast hash browns or cottage
 fries. Makes a very good diping sauce for shrimp,
 scallops, lobster, etc. Also great for popping
 popcorn. - UDD
