Sourdough starters---brings back memories. Now, buy a head of cabbage----parboil some cabbage leaves fill the leaves with whatever you wish---------partially cooked rice, lightly browned ground beef, chopped fresh tomatoes, your favorite herbs, salt and fresh ground pepper. Put filling in cabbage leaves and fold i.e. wrap the filling. Place in baking dish----add water to cover the bottom of the dish----bake at about 350. (I prefer a rectangular baking dish--covered with aluminum foil to keep the moisture in) Bake for how long----who knows---you be the judge! If you want it to be Hawaiianesque-----chop some shrimp and forget the ground beef and tomatoes. Chop celery, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, onions or garlic----flavor lightly with soy sauce and either bake or steam. Bon appetit mj

We have at least two generations who have grown up, knowing the largess of government thanks to the taxpayers. Our parents were sold a bill of goods with SS, the Forgotten Generation (1935-1945) didn't believe in SS as a rule, but we had to participate, and the Boomers (in two sub groups 1945-1964) have really never known anything else but government giveaways. The first group of the Boomers were the "60's generation"...or the Flower Children--many of this group anti-much of anything in those years, and the 2nd group, late 50's to 1964, were a little more serious about government and life in general. I believe it is the majority of the Boomers that have come to believe in handouts, in one shape or another. The fact that 46% of the voters contribute but 3-4% of the total income tax collected should bother any responsible US citizen. When that large a group trades their votes for government handouts, and will vote for the group that promises the most handouts, you will know we have trouble, right here in Bummer City~~!!
