In Portugal, they eat so much of it the saying goes "There are 365 ways to make bacalao."
I tried it. Once.

Posted: 5/5/05 at 12:03pmYou know I had no idea that cod was the same as bacalao. Cod oil = aceite de bacalao? I like cod... as in fish and chips.

Sorry Craig!
Brdlwyr is right...I was out drinking wine. (Actually, just a few glasses of wine. Then we had a bottle of champagne.)
BUT...it's FRIDAY! So, time for the fun drinks. What time are we gathering for Caipirinha's?

You had a party without me?
Actually... I can't do drinks tonight. I have other plans... so sorry - but perhaps next week! But don't hold off on trying the Caipirinha if you get the opportunity!

I ah drinks with friends at the Algonquin last night--who knew this sleepy old bar had become an after-work "single's" hangout?
Anyway, I asked the waiter if the bartender if he could make a Caipirinha and he couldn't understand what I was saying, so I had a Maker's Mark Manhattan.

Craig, Friday the 13th? Caipirinhas?
(and I have other plans tonight, too...but we could have a cyber-toast!)
