Thanks for the input. I like the taste of bacon so I might try it without boiling it too. When you make it, do you make it up the day before or serve it the same day you make it? When I was reading the recipe, it said you could do it either way.

OK. So we watched Julie & Julia recently and the boeuf bourguignon looked good. Looked up Julia Child's recipe and it says to boil the bacon. I will probably be using just thick sliced packaged bacon (no rind). Do I still boil it?

Wow! I never knew this about DRY scallops. That is why I get all that liquid. Actually, I never even knew that there was such a thing as Dry Scallops. Where do you get DRY scallops? Will it say Dry on the package.

We tried the Cavit Pinot Noir and really liked it a lot too. Another red wine we recently tried and liked was called Menage a Trois bottled by Folie a Deux winery. It is a blend of 3 wines, Zinfandel, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Thanks Trooper. That is exactly what we decided to do. Picked up a block the other day. We looked at the Henckels International set that Costco had, but didn't really like it. Both hubby and myself like the feel of the Wusthof Classic 8" chefs knife. I think that is what we will start out...
