conuly

I have digestive problems with pork, which is distressing, since I love ham, sausage & bacon. (A nicely prepared pork chop is lovely as well, but while I may like it, it doesn't like me.)

I agree with much of your list. (Where do you live, anyway? There's a high enough Hispanic population around here that I can choose from a dozen different varieties of chilies just at Safeway, with five or six fresh, three or four dried and many more packaged preground.)

And I adore peas, especially cooked with butter & green onions.
