Hi Connie,

I have a favourite coleslaw style salad too and for 'cocktail' style eating I wrap bite sized snacks with the mix in iceberg or cos lettuce leaves which I skewer closed with a cocktail stick and single caper or piece of pickled pimiento for colour. They are always popular and there are never any left over.

I will look for your suggested products and teriyaki sauces so that I can try your version. We have a thriving China Town not too far away from where I live here in Johannesburg where at the Chinese supermarkets and grocers there are all sorts of goodies to be found. Japanese, Vietnamese and Korean speciality restaurants are to be found here too (as well as in other suburbs - restaurants I mean, not the grocers etc.)

Cheers and yum to you all
Lestie, Kikkoman is a major brand in the U.S. I think that our Asian markets carry it for folks who are most comfortable buying products that they see in their local markets.

I love this new teriyaki sauce.

Tonight I'm making soft rolls with the Oriental Cabbage Salad. I'm making plain ones, avocado, shrimp, and cabbage, and avocado, pork, jalapeno, and cabbage.

I'll serve them with some egg drop soup.
It's so easy to give everybody the fresh soft rolls that they want. This Oriental Cabbage Salad was a fantastic dinner.

Okay that settles it Connie. NO MORE ARGUMENTS! I am coming for supper ... toot sweet.

Cheers and wishful thinking will go far I know!
Lestie, if you get within 500 miles of Kansas, I'll either have you over to eat supper with us or bring it to you!

Hey there ... am now in search of a yellow brick road, some red shoes and a tornado - Oh, and a wicked witch! Connie, know that's a date!

Cheers and thank you, smiling,
Hey Lestie, we have plenty of tornadoes this year; no need to bring your own!

Hi Connie,

Okay, thanks, the tornados I was carrying around in my pocket were getting grumpy at being so contained that they were pleased to disintegrate on command!

Would that these destructive natural phenomena could be so easily dealt with! We have recently had pictures in our press about the devastation of homes and lives by those (that) just happened in the midwest USA.

My thoughts go out to all of course, what a terrible position to be in and to have to deal with. My imagination just does not stretch that far - I have never been affected by anything weatherwise as drastic etc. Counting my blessings here for sure.

Cheers now
Lestie, here in the Kansas City Metro, about 50 years ago we had a terrible tornado. Midwestern folks, like anybody who lives with a threat, tended to be a bit cavalier about tornadoes. The Ruskin tornado taught us that they really do hit cities. Now, when the sirens go off, people head toward the basement.

Our siren is close enough to wake the dead. There is no way that we can sleep through it!
