Hi, I have been (back) on this list for 20 or so digests, and I thot I would mention some fun clothes I saw in a catalog today. Maybe I should introduce myself as well. I am originally from California, a Registered Nurse, having spent the last 13 years raising my son as a single mom. I recently found and married {the first time for both of us ;-) }, a wonderful man, a Pharmacist from the former Yugoslavia. A no one is perfect, he is not a lover of exceptionally Spicy/Hot foods. Although my own self rating is probably in the wimpy (here) 50k-100,000 scoville range at best. You all may be very familiar with this publication and if so I apologize, my friend & I were decorating for Christmas & she dumped a few outdated catalogs in my direction. This one is called *Culinary Classics* and seems to be somewhat of a uniform catalog for chefs. The toll free # is 800-373-2963 a few I see ... 'bout 7 different design/colors of pepper fabrics. some in garlic and other interesting fabrics chef hats to baseball caps style Pants that are quite similar to scrub bottoms ranging in sizes from XS small with an inseam of 27 to 7X with a waist of 64/65 an an 34 inseam. those depending on size seem to range from $23-$30 all U.S. White Chef Coat 100% Cotton twill, with pepper collar & cuffs...... $75 (they offer multiple item discounts.) 3 styles of pepper baseball caps are $15 and they also have bandanna caps. Nerkerchiefs...$10 and maybe 4 styles of aprons $14-$20 a vest $40 and scrub tops in the 7 prints for $30. Yes & the last page has cotton ties.....$20 they do seem to ship outside the US with a $35 min. AND 15% of the total --30% to Canada PLUS UPS costs (YIKES!!)) Oh, for about 8 months have been living in Louisville & today this same friend took me to the Marakesh Express (sp?) (related to the local Myan Gypsy--even better) and while the food was far from Chile food it was VERY good and of course I have not affiliation with the above catalog or the restaurant except in returning again. Well back to the lurking mode I appreciate all of you Chile Knights, the Dangerous One Running around with Scissors, and the author(s) with the Dirty Kitchen(s) etc. I learn so much and appreciate your wit, and expert advice. --leslie
