That breeder did not work out at all for us, sad to say. I asked the
breeder to hold the pup for an extra week for us because of Ron's back
issues starting back up rather suddenly ... It would have been H___
making that drive to Pennsylvania from Ithaca ... She said, "OK, but
I'm going to have to charge you an addional 75 bucks a day for every
day the pup is here." I said, "You know what? Keep my deposit, we

That sucks rocks.

Yeah... It really did... It killed me, really.. what a great human being... geez.

Maybe we can hope the wheels of kharma run her over. Mercenary bee-yatch.

That she was... then she tried to switch course and blame it on her husband.. sure...

Is she in politics also? That sound like something a politician would
do. Bv)=

===Date Bread===
Long ago, Ron and I used to go to a restaurant in Sullivan County, NY, "Sullivan's", and order this desert toasted, with cream cheese on the side. It was scrumptious! This is my 're-creation' of that recipe.

1 1/2 cups boiling, strong coffee
1 1/2 cup chopped dates
1 Tablespoon cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 egg, beaten
1 1/2 cups flour
pinch of salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chopped walnuts

Looks decent. Here's one I have had at my sister's (Georgia) but not
made myself. It's a "no leftovers" recipe.

Title: Beer Can Date Bread
Categories: Breads, Desserts, Cakes
Yield: 8 Servings

8 Empty beer cans
2 tb Soda
1 c Dates
2 c Beer
3 tb Butter
1 c Maple syrup
1 tb Vanilla
2 lg Eggs
4 c Whole wheat pastry flour
1 c Pecans

NOTE: This recipe was written back in the days when
soda and beer came in steel 12 oz. cans. Those are as
hard to find as "hens teeth" these days. I suggest
vegetable cans with the paper labels removed. Try to
find smooth sided cans, not those with sets of ridges.
The ridges may make removing the finished bread from
the can difficult. - UDD

Remove tops from beer cans with can opener; lightly
oil insides.

Sprinkle soda on dates. Heat beer to boiling and pour
over date/soda mixture; set aside to cool.

Cream together butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and eggs.
Stir in flour. Add nuts and cooled date mixture.

Spoon batter into cans, filling only 1/2 full.

Bake with cans standing up on cookie sheet, at
350ºF/175ºC for 15-30 minutes; look for tops to split
and test for doneness.

Do not cut bread for 1 day; bread may break up, if it
is sliced while still warm.
