trying to reach you

[mzkero]

Hey Chica! I can't find your e-mail addy and I tried to call you at C&L's but I can't leave a message for you. Are you busy this week? I've got to bake and would love some company. I'd even feed you. Let me know :) mzkero at hotmail dot com

I would love to see you - what a great offer! I've been trying to add you to my friends - so far the livejournal won't let me do it but I WILL PREVAIL! I will call or email you later today. :)

actually hotmail is being funny. try mzkero at gmail dot com and I'll be baking basically all week. but I work evenings so it will be during the day. :D

Hachiya or Fuyu? Or is this to be left up to the conscience of the individual poet?

[orangelemon]

Um, I think Fuyu, but I am not sure. The ones that aren't all acidic, that you can slice in circles and they look like orange moons with stars inside.

[dreda]

Now I'm going to need to get one of each and slice them open to see. I think that the Hachiyas are the short, squat ones that are shaped more like slightly flattened pumpkins, and Fuyus are shaped more like acorns. The Hachiyas are, to my mind, better for baking because they have to be practically mush before they're ripe.

Well, when I get around to making persimmon bread, you're on the list.

LOVING YOU!

You're my favorite. I have a recipe somewhere that I've never tried for some kind of chocolate persimmon cake or something. I should find it...we could make stuff together.

[orangelemon]

The ones I mean are the squat ones. I'm not calling them sharon fruit! I like the word "persimmon" too much.
