Hi all,


I hope you will pardon me sending this little note to the list....I'm
reading up on the history of hacking and came across this little
article<http://stallman.org/articles/on-hacking.html>by hacker par
excellence Richard Stallman, and it combines hacking with
dining, so it seemed apropos. Do you agree with him?

"Playfully doing something difficult, whether useful or not, that is
hacking."

I've been holding onto a brilliant recipe for Moroccan chicken - made with
preserved lemons, eaten Ethiopian style, with pieces of bread held in your
hands, rather than with utensils - for years, waiting for the right
opportunity to make it. (Got it from a friend who made it for dinner -
that's how I know it's brilliant.) Here's hoping TasteBridge is that
opportunity.....


Prost!
