Chileheads,
Thanks, Mark & Rael, for wondering if I'm alive. Indeed, I lost power for 9
days. I got it back Friday evening. I haven't read through the chileheads
mail yet, and during the first couple of days of the storm, I lost all my
email. If you've written to me recently, you might try again if you don't
receive a reply within the next two to three days.
The storm was wild. Many people here (Maine) and in Canada still don't have
electricity. At first, it was kind of like an adventure. We all pitched in
and helped each other. I jumped rope and ate chiles to stay warm. After
about day 7, however, it was old, and I no longer appreciated the drama of
it.
These days, I spend all my extra time answering email from days and days
ago, and paying homage to the Goddess of Electricity.
Another thing is I'm wondering what is the easiest way to get recipes into
Mastercook format? I know that some of you, a while back, were involved in
converting the chileheads archived recipes into Mastercook format. Did you
have to do them all manually, or is there some simple way of doing it?
- mary (praise be to El Grande and Goddess of Power, not necessarily in
that order.)
