Hi Ben,
RH> Thanks, I saw my ortho doctor on Tuesday. New x-rays showed no breaks
RH> Both look ugly now; I'll have
RH> some new scars but it could have been so much worse.
BC> Hooray for no breaks. Now to make up some yarns about the scars. It
BC> happened during a fight over the last slice of cake. You should see
BC> the scars on the OTHER guy!
That might work for the elbow but not the knee. I'm not a kick boxer.
(G)
RH> That sounds good. We did some boondocking in a national forest near the
RH> Grand Canyon and again at a remote trailhead in southeastern Utah on
RH> this past trip. Also spent a night at another trailhead near Capital
RH> Reef National Park, also in southern Utah.
BC> Nice! I have passed through Utah a couple of times and thought parts
BC> of it were beautiful.
We've been to just about all of them, were on our way to Canyonlands but
after my fall, decided to head directly home. Still took us 5 days to
get home. Canyonlands, Dead Horse and the Grand Tetons will be another
trip, which, with daughters and grandkids out west, is a given.
RH> he said that he owes me a big slice of Black Forest cake. (G)
BC> I was not aware of the distinction. We have a German restaurant here
BC> called Black Forest, so i guess that could be extra confusing. The
BC> German Chocolate cake *IS* Black Forest cake.
Have you eaten there? I know you do a lot (are you totally) of
vegetarian, does this place have options like cheese schnitzel?
German chocolate cake is a medium brown in color with a
coconut/pecan filling and frosting. Black Forest cake is much darker,
has cherrys, whipped cream and chocolate shavings. True BF cake is also
made with kirschewasser (cherry brandy). I've got a recipe around
somewhere, from a German pastor's wife who taught our church women's
group in Frankfurt how to make it.
