		<description>Hi Ricki, 
I checked out the cashew cheese recipe (and even double checked it with the printed version in the magazine to make sure it wasn&#039;t a misprint online). Aside from the water to soak the cashews which gets drained off, I don&#039;t see where it calls for 1/2 cup water (which means I don&#039;t understand where you&#039;d decrease it from 1/2 cup to 1/4 cup).  Help!
Thanks,
Crystal</description>

		<description>Micco,
Thanks so much!  And thanks for your comment. :)

Voracious Vegan,
Thanksk for the clarification.  I was under the impression that there are some state-funded hospitals/doctors in the US as well. And thanks for the well-wishes--he is definitely better now!

Vegetation,
Yowch!  I think the spider sounds scarier to me. ;)

Mihl,
Aw, thanks so much! First, I need to get the word out about this one. . . ! ;)

Astra Libris,
Yay--another fire-lover!  I can&#039;t seem to eat enough of those poppers.  And thanks for the good wishes for the HH! :)

Laura,
What a horribly scary story!  I can&#039;t believe they wouldn&#039;t believe HER--and it&#039;s her eye! I will pass the advice on to the HH.  And sorry about the lack of equivalents--let me know what you&#039;re missing and I&#039;ll see if I can come up with some workable substitutes. :)

Monique,
Thanks so much, and for reading!  Let me know how you like it if you do decide to make it. 

jessy,
Thanks for the commiseration! And hope Dan likes the apps! (appetizers, that is, not iPhone toys!) ;)

Jes, 
Hope you like them!  And thanks for the good wishes re: HH. :)

Alex,
No, not a secret--just forgot to mention it!  I&#039;ve added a mention at the end of this post. :)  Thanks for the reminder, and hope to see you there!

Andrea,
I just couldn&#039;t get into such a long prep time, either (I am basically lazy).  This version seems to work just as well! :)

Diann,
What are the reasons over there?  Over here, it&#039;s called, &quot;unskilled gardener.&quot; ;)

Ashley,
Heat is an acquired taste, for sure.  But I bet you&#039;ll like the cheese!

Celine,
Aw, thanks--from me AND the HH. :)

Mom,
Thanks so much for the good wishes!  The rest of the weekend was very low key, of course--a great time to eat more poppers (sorry &#039;bout that). ;)

Alisa,
Thanks for the tip!  I will try it next time.

Erin,
The cheese is worth it!  And thanks for the good wishes. :)

Michelle,
Really?  I guess it&#039;s only obvious once you know what it is!  Thanks for the good wishes re: the HH. 

Lele,
Thanks so much for your comment!  And I hadn&#039;t quite thought of it that way, but yes, food lover indeed! :)

dreaminitvegan,
Let me know what he thinks if you do make them for him!  

Still Life, 
That&#039;s what the HH is like, too, so I knew it HAD to be serious for him to ASK to go! Thanks for the good wishes. :)</description>

		<description>Whew, I am so glad that HH&#039;s malady was not serious and quickly fixed. I was so nervous reading your account. I know my husband will find any reason NOT to get something checked out, so I&#039;m glad HH knows when a check up is needed.</description>
