I am sorry to hear the news about your mother, DR John G.

Hoping and praying for a good outcome, whatever form that may take. And of course, the possibility that she will rally again.

The worst? I went to a Chinese buffet before Christmas a couple of years ago. Half of the steam tables weren't working. The food was all bad, no matter Chinese, Chinese-American or American. When you leave a buffet hungry, it says something.

Worst of the worst was an egg roll tougher than Ho Chi Minh's sandal. And cold.

My sister is in Shelton, slightly north and east of DR ChasSmith. There weren't flooded, per se, but their roof is damaged from a micro-burst a week or two ago, and they have been waiting for an insurance adjuster.

During the storm yesterday, they started getting a lot of water into the house from the damaged roof, so now things are a lot worse than they were before.

Miraculously, they were able to get someone out during the storm yesterday to tarp the roof.

TOD: 

I've liked the Mongolian beef almost wherever I've had Chinese food, usually mixed with rice (white rice or fried rice).

There was a place near law school where it was really good, and the dish has somehow never disappointed, though it's clearly not healthy eating.

I almost ordered Chinese tonight from my favorite take-out place up the street, New Kam Lai. I love their fried pork dumplings and mixed veggies with bean curd.

What a shame.  Bless the person, people who put a tarp on their roof.  The insurance company should have ordered that to begin with.

I may (or may not) have read somewhere that if you serve jello with a fortune cookie, that makes it an authentic Chinese dessert.

It IS turning out to be a good luck day!  Your getting so close to 70,000 HHW posts can do that.


He just needs to post one more post!

Chinese health drink may be the worst Chinese dish I've ever had. Two types of beans in a parfait glass with weird grass-flavored gelatin, crushed ice and whipped cream. Still trying to figure that one out. 

I may (or may not) have read somewhere that if you serve jello with a fortune cookie, that makes it an authentic Chinese dessert.
