Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Nilly says glass is basically utile for all kosher stuff

after being treated somehow?

And I am sorry for asking, but I was only half paying attention to all the kosher do's and don't's because I didn't get confirmation for hosting The Nilly till last week... and... could someone let me know the general guidelines about keeping kosher?

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Nora, I think it's because it's non-porous? I do know that in email, she said no special glass was needed, because glass was fine.

I'm glad, for once, that I have "purpose" pots (usually, it strikes even me as fussy). That is, I can use my multi-cooker to make Nilly's pasta, because nothing is or has ever been cooked in that other than pasta or steamed veggies. I bought it specifically for that purpose, and have never used it for anything else.

My sauciers, on the other hand? No. Really, really no. Not kosher at all.

Sweet! Does this apply to Pyrex?

ETA: Heh- our cast iron and Le Creuset is just as dubious.

Yep, I think Pyrex is included in that - it's glass, and completely non-porous and non-absorbent. I bought a really nice baking dish at the Corning Revere outlet for four bucks, in Pyrex; I'm going to roast a nice mixture of 'shrooms and asparagus in kosher salt and olive oil for Nilly. And also for me, because it's one of my favourite things on earth to eat.

Dude, I can't even lift Le Creuset. I have two of their pieces, and have never used the saucepan. If I need roadies to carry it, I ain't using it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The cat is no problem; if anything, it'll be a relief to downsize to just one (from four) for the weekend. Thank you!

No worries. It's good to have an excuse to scrub the house, anyway. Email me with details?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

could someone let me know the general guidelines about keeping kosher?

This is a good starting point.

Insent to your profile address, Jesse.

This is all so exciting! When does Nilly land in LA?

Allyson, no need to send along the pot.

It took me a few seconds to correctly parse this statement.

When does Nilly land in LA?

She was scheduled to land a half hour ago.

t edit Correction. El Al website says she landed early at 10:00 PDT!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Nilly has a document she's been using as a keep-kosher guide, I think -- I'd go with whatever Allyson or Lee has.
