 RH> For a time, seemed to have started in the 90s (IIRC, "Windows for
 RH> Dummies" was one of the first ones out) there were a number of books
 RH> on the market along the theme of "XYZ for Dummies". They covered quite
 RH> a range of topics.I never bought any because none of the subjects
 RH> covered were of interest to me but they did cover quite a wide spectrum
 RH> of topics. As I remember, most of them had a yellow cover meant to look
 RH> sort of like a legal pad.

They do tend to be a certain style in appearance and in writing.  I have
bought more than one of them.  In fact, I can look at the book case
behind my monitor and see "Windows 7 for Dummies".  It came with a
searchable DVD, which is still shrink wrapped next to the book, neither
of which have been opened.  OTOH, I have several other Win7 books which
I did make good use of.  I can see a number of pages that have slips of
paper tagging some pages.
 

 RH> I'd rather pit them, but, that's my choice.
 
 RH> I can tolerate a certain level of pain but I don't want to crunch down
 RH> on a cherry pit and break a tooth. Spending time at the dentist is not
 RH> one of my favorite things.

Gail will certainly agree with you there.  Over the years she has broken
several teeth.  It is uncertain whether it was because of crunching on
something unexpectingly hard (nut shell, peach pit hunk, etc.) or just
because a filling finally decided to crack.

This has a nice low carb count.  But I do wonder at why use ground beef
in a tofu recipe.  I tend to think of tofu as being an ingredient used
primarily in vegetarian recipes (but even the chicken broth negates that
thought).

Personally, I'd just go with an increased amount of ground beef.
