[Sca-cooks] Couple of quick questions for the list....

[S CLEMENGER]

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone....Johnna, I don't remember the name of 
the deli where I had the salad, although I do recall that it was on the 
promenade, and I'd probably be able to find it again without much 
difficulty.  I suspect my mystery cheese was the burrata, from Eibhlin's 
description.  Dang, but it was *so* good! I'm bloody near ready to move 
there, just for that salad!
Somebody mentioned getting scallops at an Asian market--that's a good idea, 
and one that I'd definitely pursue, but we don't have the population, let 
alone the ethnic groups, that would pull in that sort of resources.  I do 
live in the second largest city in the state, but it's still Montana....some 
things we gots, some things we doesn't gots.  There are, for instance, a 
total of *two* stores in the entire bloody town that carry greek yogurt (my 
newest addiction).  And I've only been able to find organic meat at one 
store, which is annoying.  At least more stores are carrying organic produce 
and some dairy stuff these days....
I am now *fiercely* craving shortbread, thankyouallverymuch! And it is SO 
NOT on my diet!
I suspect that His Grace Cariadoc was referring to the wine and not the 
spices, as well, but my friend was really fussing over it, and I said I'd 
ask....:o)
Thanks, everyone....
Master A....have you gotten that brisket out of the freezer yet? Did you 
manage to resist?
