I did not manage to salvage the tapioca I was making the other day, so I just threw it out (1/3 cup tapioca, 3 cups milk, etc. isn't going to cause any great catastrophe in my life). My dad has a recipe he has had quite a bit of success with, so what I will do is get together with him and have a little lesson with him in making it, and perhaps get a copy of the recipe. I will exchange it for helping him with burning some pictures from a digital camera he just got onto a CD.
