    Once we got on the topic of frufood I had to speak up here.  After our planned
site was destroyed by the evils of computer problems... I had to share the
vision!!  In early November Leah Bender and I had a conversation which spawned the
creative genius which is Chef Jian's Fudge Factory.  Be warned: this is not one of
those things that makes sense!!  For some odd reason (perhaps the 7 straight hours
online sustained only by everyone's favorite chocolatey friend?) we thought it was
a really cool idea... Cool enough that me, Maria S. and another fruhead brought a
chef's hat to a concert and made the lads put them on for pictures...so now I have
pics of every lad and Tobey except Murray (he didn't come out after the concert)
in a chef's hat holding a wooden spoon. Very cute :-)  But, anyways, an empire (we
had plans for Chef Mike's Pie Parade, and various food sites for the other lads,
also one for Tobey and Cal, and plans to volunteer at local food kitchens to
donate the goods...) has fallen, and I just felt like sharing...

It was okay...we "played outside" or we watched tv...I have a lot of fond
memories from there, but I know there could've been a lot more...We had game
tournaments, we drew pictures, etc., and she even helped me with my reading and
had little workbooks.  But I think the main reason I went there was because
although very nice, the day-care provider was severely obese and very poor, and
this was her only source of income. She died when I was about 7 (I believe she
was about 45) of massive heart problems...I don't know what kind...but that's a
whole 'nother story

day and watch that show. those kids would follow that
floaty thing around and solve mysteries with the clues
that the ghostwriter made out of rearraging letters,
but only they could see it!!! and they had specian
pens that they carried around, and ghostwriter would
go in the computer and spell out anything cuz all the
letters were there. hehehe

That's it!! That's the name of it!!

<Shelly Duval was in it and she would introduce the fairy tale and play a 
part in it I think.  She would tell the fairy tale as it was originally told. 
 I.E. the Rapunzel one, in the original version the prince does go blind.>

<Oh! They did do Little Mermaid!>

Didn't they also do Jack and the Beanstalk or am I way seriously on crack?

Yeah...I remember being kinda scared cuz I'd watch it when I was little, and 
here's this blood coming from his eyes, and that was my first introduction to 
Rapunzel with visual aids, even though my mom would tell it to me at bedtime, 
along with other classics. Hehehe..

I wonder where I can find these. Very curious. Time to go do a little Fairy

Hi,
Just got back from the meet and she did it again!  She got a AA cut in
the 200 free, and we got to the pool just as she was getting out.  I
even left work early and everything.  Now she is the proud owner of the
50, 100, 200, 500, and 1650 freestyle cuts. The bad news is that she
came in 4th when she got her cut.
This really is a tough competition area.  Three pool records were broken
by the same girl tonight and they were old records.
Okay, back to the real world
Cheese Flan
1/2 cup sugar
1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
1 8oz package of cream cheese
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 400.  Carmelize sugar in loaf pan. (15-20 min).  In
blender combine milk, eggs, cream cheese, and vanilla.  Pour mixture
into loaf pan after sugar is carmelized.  Put loaf pan inside a roasting
pan (9x13) with 1/2 inch water.  Bake at 350 for 55-60 min.  Cool and
chill.  Invert onto plate when cool.
Enjoy!

In case you haven't seen or heard this ...

Tickets for the Feb. 27 show at the Barrymore Theater in Madison are $13,
available via phone charge directly at 608 241-8633. The handling charge is
$3.50 per order, and they'll mail tickets for an extra $1 per order.

Doors open at 6:30, show starts at 7:30. I was told it's a former movie
theater, with a balcony. Seats are general admission. Sounds similar to the
Canopy in Champaign, Ill.

Hello, Newsgroupies!  What are you doing this Tuesday night from 8-10 pm?
Watching Buffy & Angel?  I think not... Instead, fire up your RealPlayers
and catch the debut of my *radio show*, the Eclectic Cafe.  Basically it's
just an excuse for me to flaunt my CD collection and play for you all the
music I love (and that many of you love, too), but which never gets heard on
commercial radio.  I'd classify most of what I'll play as alterna-folk-rock,
but basically it'll be a bit of everything.  (I've attached a list of
artists below.)  The best part is, any of *you* can listen over your
computer!

Just point your browser to http://www.broadcast.com/radio/college/wybcam/
and follow the instructions.

If you can't listen this Tuesday, I'll be playing my show *every* Tuesday
from 8-10 pm through the end of the semester.  Thanks a lot--your support
means the world to me!  Take care--

Hi all,

Great news for everyone who's ordered FruCon3 shirts. Today
we just hit 71 orders (only 32 paid so far) close enough to
give the project the go ahead! We will be placing the order
with the printer on Friday (1/28/00).

So, if anyone has been holding off ordering because they
thought the project might not happen...it's still not too
late.

We will NOW accept e-mail orders up until MIDNIGHT THURSDAY
(1/27/00).
In your e-mail, please include the following information:
Name
Address
Phone
Shirt size/quantity

BUT we must receive payment and it must clear our bank
before we can mail your shirt(s). We're putting our money
into this project and can't afford to take any chances.

Thanks to one and all,
Brent and Mar

Sheesh! What kinda of Day Care Center did you go to? 
I was at one from 1974 until 1982 and there wasn't even a TV 
anywhere in the place. We went on *tons* of field trips esp.
during the summer from swimming twice a week, to going to farms, the
county fair, to museums etc. Actually, I went more places
there than I did with my parents who worked full time when I was 
growing up. I went after school and 
all day during the summer. The day care I went to wasn't 
at some woman's house either, it was like some of the ones today 
- - run like a school in a building with a playground. 
My finest memories are from being there.
My mom had one of those guilty mother
consciences about putting me in day care so much - but to me
I don't think she made a mistake, since I had the best
time. :) And look how *I* turned out! *laughs* Shut up
everyone! ;D
