I'm in Arizona. Yes, I saw the fall Vegas get-together, and will have to check the dates against work (I teach college). It would be fun!
web page The dates are Oct 15th to the 18th with the main meet to be at the Imperial Palace at 10 AM on Sat. Oct. 16. Sure hope you can make it. Yes, we would love to have you join us!! Oh, and welcome by the way!

I taught adult Consumer Ed in Phoenix but that was a million years ago in the late 70's.

Absolute favorite way to eat the wild rice (yes, I get the MN kind, too), is cook it well, then toss it with a little bit of olive oil, some fresh basil leaves, and tiny bit of diced tomatoes, and salt and pepper. Sounds yummy this way. I'll have to try it. If I go easy on the oil and tomatoes, it doesn't bother me. Any good wild rice recipes of your own to share? Hmm, nothing special believe me. I'm a lazy cook and a purist...I like it just plain but cooked in a broth..love mushrooms with it, and in vegetable cream soups. As a youngster we only had it for the holidays, with FF turkey gravy over it so I'm still partial to it that way. What I love about it, besides the taste is that a little bit of it cooks up to a whole lot of it.......!!!! Kandee
