Here's another place where I bought some for my botanical garden and toucan rescue operation here in Costa Rica. They ship to the UnUnited States as well. http://www.highlandheliconia.com/plants.html

I think the leftover salmon is going to be good, and Kevin has promised to eat it even though he often will not eat leftovers - especially the next day. So last night I made Crab Louis with one of the King Crab legs (they were huge), and I froze the meat from the other two. To do that, I put the meat in a ziplock bag, wrapped that in a paper tower, and then put that into a Foodsaver bag. I plan to use it when my sister is here for Labor Day. Yesterday I did a search for Salmon Croquettes because Kevin requested them, and I found a recipe from Ina Garten that I plan to adapt. I've been watching her at lunch (now that Time Warner no longer shows People's Court on Channel 9 because of the war with CBS), and while I do not learn much from her, I have noticed that she cooks very similarly to me - which is why I do not learn much - I already make everything that she makes. She adds minced, sauteed yellow and red bell pepper to her salmon cakes, and so I thought I would try that. If you do a search for Salmon Croquettes on YouTube, you will find some entertaining videos - one from a woman whose show is called "Ghetto Cooking". I did not realize that Salmon Croquettes was Soul Food, but maybe it is just Southern. Another woman (who is in Southern Colorado) calls herself Grandma CheapCheap and sometimes calls the dish "Simon Croquet", pronounced like the mallet game. I put away more of the salmon stock in the freezer, but I saved enough to make a dill sauce for the croquettes that I plan to make this evening. I also bought some spinach so that I can make a spinach sauce for another dish. I might freeze some salmon to make salmon dip for later. I don't think cooked salmon freezes that well, but I think it would be okay for a dip. I bought bagels to have with it and cut my thumb when I was removing a bagel slice that had gotten stuck in my electric meat slicer. I always use that for slicing bagels, and I can get four slices from each bagel that way - I prefer the thinner slices, and my doctor told me to cut back on carbs. Lars

Here's an old photo of 'Mme Léon Pain' From Thomas & Easlea's The Rose Book, 1914, p.186:

Ok, can’t stand it, respond when able, what color, orange to match lamp, yellow or orange from new rug, or stain to keep with the brown furniture pieces. Thinking of which ever color to re finish i would like to place white marble on top like the small cabinet beside love seat, hard to see white marble, tried to blow it up in last pic
