I, the lazy cook that I am, would have been likely to treat it as "rice" and plop it in the rice cooker. Phew...<br /><br />Since asparagus (or, as I like to affectionally call it: ASS-paragus), is out of season here in SoCal, I topped it with sauteed zuchinni and a homemade salsa. Delish. One change I'll make in future versions: leave the corn out of the salsa. Since the polenta is already cornaliscious.The Nurturing Piratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13268305689672587081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-16742590768899621322010-06-11T10:22:17.007-04:002010-06-11T10:22:17.007-04:00HA HA HA! to Jahlizz's comment!!

...HA HA HA! to Jahlizz's comment!! Love, Mom <br /><br />The things a person can learn on Catherine's blog!!<br /><br />Catherine, I was looking at your satiny chocolate sauce recipe, saw the Nehi bottle full of vanilla (and Mason jar of milk) and thought: a woman after my own heart. I love looking through Crate & Barrel catalogs, but I love using fun, saved bottles and jars even more.<br /><br />Thanks for all your recipes! I continue to love your column even though my youngest baby is 22.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-47912289109406073252010-06-10T08:55:44.849-04:002010-06-10T08:55:44.849-04:00I'm ELN5 over at Family.com.

They looked like this kinda:<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/PLEASER-Kiss-201-Dancers-Stiletto-Sequence/dp/B001U9DJQM<br /><br />But the platform was hollow and bigger and there was a piggy bank slit with the words TIPS painted on it. <br /><br />I'm not clever enough to turn them into a vase- but I still think they should've come home with me.<br /><br />-jahlizzAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31773345.post-29665406223065069682010-06-10T00:07:51.417-04:002010-06-10T00:07:51.417-04:00Have you ever tried making cheese?
