I'd wondered if the attraction of the computer is as strong for anyone else as it is for me - it's a kind of sharing that I love, and is very strong competition with the food - sometimes actually hard for me to restrain from getting on the computer so that I can eat in total concentration - my mind wanders and also I have thoughts I want to share and want to stop eating so I can write them down while they are fresh on my mind - but I do totally understand your love affair with the wonderful glorius delicious fresh rice. I have felt it also. But not only when the rice is perfect. I have had it come out when it's been too sticky, and yet I still love it very much.

What did you mean by "my vegetable equivalent"? Are you presently doing the rice diet??

Did you already have your trip to NY??
