let me extol, for a moment, The Crumpet. i realize most of you have never heard of, never mind eaten, a crumpet, but, oh, you should. i grew up eating them, and haven't been able to find them south of the border - they are a british food, i guess. but somehow, my wily mother was able to put her hands on some, and brough them with her this week, and i just had my first crumpet in years. "...and rachel ate it, and it was good."
get thee a crumpet, people!

There are crumpets in my fridge as I speak - I had a couple yesterday for lunch with some of Marilyn's jam.
You can buy them at Trader Joe's. You may never have been to a TJ's, but it is worth the trip (a west coast institution). Also an excellent place to buy cheap drinkable wine (in states that allow such things)!

I just had my first crumpet last week! But it wasn't the english muffin type. It was like a biscuit. But you can't call it a 'biscuit' because that is a cookie in these parts. Sigh. Too much to remember. Eating shouldn't be that much work. :0(
