I am also sorry to hear about your father-in-law. I currently live in Wisconsin, but grew up in Mankato, Minnesota, and visited my grandparents in Minneapolis on a regular basis. We would always go out as a family, and eat at Howard Wong's on a regular basis as well. It was my favorite Chinese restaurant. I always ordered Howard's version of "Pressed Duck" - it was always fantastic! And, by the way, I was only 8 years old, or younger, at the time, so you know it had to be good to get a kid to love it! Does anyone in your family have the recipe? I have told my wife about Howard Wong's for years, and his Pressed Duck. It would be great to be able to taste that great dish again. Take care, and God Bless. Thanks. Scott Saiki Dear Andrea,

I hope you and your sister have a great time in London and think of me at the Albert and Victoria Museum, especially when you see knitted pieces. I always think about proposing for Rhinebeck and never do! I will talk to you when you come back, Love, Andrea Dear Barbara,

I took a friend and went to Rhinebeck (NYState Sheep and Wool Festival) today and I met Donna and Marrilee and was able to show off my beautiful shawl! It was so much fun to have actually finished this year's class project! I found a beautiful shawl pin to use with it, and bought a cone of real Shetland 2-ply and pattern to knit another lovely shawl, this one a rectangular stole. I love lace knitting (but I wish the new pattern did not use size 1 needles! I'm off to London with my sister this Tuesday, taking my shawl and shawl pin with me. Love, Barbara Hi, Andrea….
