    I am still trying to come up with three for the recipe book. Have one
    but haven't decided on the other two yet. When I get back from picking
    up my Extremely Old Cat (tm) from the vet I'll post the one I've
    definitely decided on.

    I hope that EOC is okay. Our "puppies" are celebrating their 9th
    birthday today. Hard to believe. They don't seem anywhere near that
    old!

    Time flies, huh? Nathan turns 7 this month, Maxi-dog turns 8 and Jasmine
    would have been 19 in 3 weeks. Unfreakin' believable.

    Time flies when you're getting old! LOL!

    [snip] We both had some
    inexpensive Shiraz, Yellow Tail and it was very nice. It comes from
    Australia and you can find it for seven or eight dollars a bottle. A
    real bargain. I will order a case.

    That's the current "house red" of friends of ours. We find that it
    takes very well to being decanted. Gets air into it fast and mellows
    it.

    Our current "house red" is still Santa Rita Reserva cabernet. From
    Chile, about the same price as the Yellowtail. It also likes to be
    decanted. -aem


    I tried Santa Rita, but the Cabernet Sauvignon is not nearly as strong
    or big or whatever the word, as the Yellow Tail Shiraz.

    The Santa Rita has become popular here and the higher prices can
    attest to that popularity. The Yellow Tail is somewhat less per
    bottle, a dollar ot two difference.

    I recall the complaint was about just using this newsgroup as a personal
    filing cabinet and just posting hundreds of unrequested recipes in short
    succession. It was as annoying as "a lot of stuff that's going on here"
    IMO. There probably are better places to post if what you're looking for
    is an archived record of your own recipes?

    I meant at the level she's posting at now. She shouldn't be scared to
    post a recipe every now and then.
