Wheee! Also, the Ninja Turtles look entertaining. For those who are dying to know more about the miracle food we call agar-agar... "This additive is used as a texturizing agent, emulsifier, stabilizing agent and thickener in ice cream, sherbets, jellies, soups, sauces, canned soups, and canned meat & fish. It is used as a clarifying agent in winemaking and brewing, to fill the pores in cloth and paper manufacturing ('sizing'), as a medium for growing bacteria; in dentistry and cosmetics; film and adhesives. It is prepared from several species of red algae (or seaweed). It is a vegetable gelatin, and is therefore used by vegetarians because true gelatin is made from calf's feet." In other news, I bought a Trader Vic's adam and eve mug today, plus 2 Vic's ashtrays for 16 canadian clams (11 or so US) for the whole shebang. You california types probably think I paid to much, but up here, I takes whut I gets. Also found some lovely original Star Wars curtains (hello Ebay!) and a COOL cowgirl outfit for a little girl (also on Ebay - If you know any little cowgirls who want one, I'll give you the URL). Oh, shit, I'm rambling. Pineapple Recipes, Bacterial Cultures, Trader Vic's and Cowgirls all in one post. That's gotta be some kind of record.
