[Oe List ...] "Mom" is Marianna Bailey

[Evelyn Philbrook]

Thank you Lynn and Marianna,

Some times I yearn for things which taste and remind me of Christmas 
past, and then I create something new from Taiwan like fresh pineapple, 
and papaya salad with shrimp and crushed peanuts...but I still wish I 
could get the pecans...

Oh, we can... we have a Costco in Neihu.

Cheers, I am off on an adventure...
