Very clever, PJ - especially if you don't have time to make the traditional King Cake. Gee, all these holidays: Valentine's and Chinese New Year on the 14th, then Shrove Tuesday 2 days later, and on the 28th, Purim. Well, takes our minds off the 3 feet of snow we've been "blessed" with. Oh my gosh, Beth, that's right, you were directly in the path of that storm. And I heard more's coming. The world is absolutely upside-down - we've had about 13" of snow ALL WINTER, and everyone's moaning about the (lack of) skiing and sledding, no insulation for the plants, etc. You have my complete sympathy - go ahead and send some of it up here! Thanks for remiding me about Chinese New Year - one of our Web team members here is from Beijing. I'll have to figure out how to help him celebrate here in Vermont. Shrove Tuesday = pancakes; I'm still completely stuck on our homemade whole grain pancake mix. Mix it up, store in the freezer, make great pancakes whenever you want them. WANT THEM NOW... PJH
