Braunda; I now understand why ancient Romans had food orgies. Pomegranates have always been a favourite in my home; having learned from my dear mother. Cooking this recipe for four people meant only doubling up on ingredients. Extra pomegranate juice was extracted as well to create more juice for serving. Only significant change to the recipe was to stuff the little birds with a wild rice and pecan dressing. I had to provide finger bowls with dinner, because this is definitely a "pick-it-up-with-your-fingers" fowl recipe. Next time I cook this recipe Braunda, I may use partridge, but rest assured, there will be a next time, whether with cornish hens, partridge, or other fowl... Absolutely delicious; thank you for your contribution.

I do not think I have a pet peeve. I think people are different for reasons that are not known to us. We just have to get along. I always look for the good in people and not the things I do not like.
