    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

* 4 long slender carrots (about 9 ounces total), peeled
* 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
* 1 tablespoon (packed) finely grated lemon peel
* 1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
* 2 yellow or orange bell peppers, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch strips
* 1 clove garlic-crushed


* 8 ounces linguine


* 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice


Run vegetable peeler down length of each carrot, shaving into ribbons.

Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat.

Add lemon peel and ginger and garlic; stir 1 minute.

Add carrots and bell peppers.

Sauté until just tender, about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook pasta in medium pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite.

Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid.

Add pasta, 1/4 cup reserved cooking liquid, and lemon juice to skillet.

Toss until sauce coats pasta, adding more cooking liquid if dry.

Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve.
