Subject: In honor of SurveyGuy

In honor of SurveyGuy, who has been a driving force in maintaining this message board which I and others enjoy partaking in, and whose posts are normally terse, insightful, and thought provoking, I present this tid bit from "the Bard" himself.

Since brevity is the soul of wit... I will be brief...

From Shakespeare's Hamlet.

Spoken by Polonius Act II Scene ii, line 96

[> [> [> [> I am unfamiliar with that dish. Is it one of those sweet rice and coconut dishes or what? I have never tried Indian cooking, but did take a vegetarian course from an Indian woman with a Ph.D. in biology so I learned a little about her cuisine. Lots of cutting up for that style of cooking. -- SG, 17:40:24 11/12/02 Tue (maxtnt03-274.phlpa.fast.net/209.92.231.20)

[> [> [> [> [> SurveyGuy, here inside this message subject link is a recipe for "Barfi" an Indian fudge candy treat. I do enjoy Indian food very much. An Indian desert I enjoy very much is "Gulab Juman" which is milk ball in rose water, or a form of sweet syrup. It is sweet and often served warm. I enjoy Mango Ice Cream, Mango Lassi drink (not an alcoholic beverage. I don't drink any alcohol whatsoever), and I enjoy mango chutney with some dishes, such as some finger foods like Vegetable Samosa, patada wada, and others. I hope you, and anyone else here who choses to try it, enjoy it. -- William, 13:37:55 11/20/02 Wed (cache-rl02.proxy.aol.com/152.163.189.98)

[> [> [> [> [> [> Thanks. It certainly is a simple recipe. I can see how a mango would go with it. Sort of like peaches and cream, only sweeter. -- SG (reposted), 22:48:43 11/20/02 Wed (cache-rl02.proxy.aol.com/152.163.189.98)
