Another Potluck
I'm getting ready for another potluck, attempting to feed my friends healthy food and avoid being tempted by evil gak. I'm bringing a vegetarian Asian-ish stir fry with Quorn, Trader Joe's Harvest Hodgepodge, bamboo shoots, extra baby corn, cooked in a veggie broth with garlic and soy sauce and ginger. I'm also baking apples, guava, and pears in Captain Morgan's spiced rum, topped with cinnamon and Grains of Desire spices. Sneaking in healthy food wherever I can. I've decided that I'm sick of feeling sick after these events, so I'm bringing my own measured food for both me and MR, and bringing our baby measuring cup (2 oz, it's so cute!) to measure my wine. If I make it one of my morning CR vows to *not* graze on the potluck food (all of which will be very high calorie) I'll be fine.
I ate plenty yesterday... VLC was in town, so the old clique went out. We had tons of fun! She's going to be around the area all December and maybe in January too. More adventures with VLC...

Wow! You certainly have some very lucky friends! It sure beats the chips & container of gakky dip I have actually seen people bring to potlucks or even the veggie or fruit tray that I have brought on those occasions when I've been too busy to prepare something. JD :-)

So - do you have nutritional values for baby corn? It's not in the USDA database. I've always been stymied by this. I just use yellow corn, but it doesn't seem right.
