Buttery Onion Soup: revised

Neighbor Kay S. said she made this recipe last night and it was excellent so I decided to post it again.
I think I will be making this tonight after I go to the store for some mozzarella cheese.

Buttery Onion Soup 4/5/2008

2 Cups thinly sliced onions
1/2 Cup butter or margarine
1/4 Cup flour
2 Cups chicken broth
2 Cups milk
8 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese
salt and pepper to taste

Saute' onion in butter 20-30 minutes in 3 qt. sauce pan till nicely carmelized. Blend in
flour, add milk and broth, heat until boiling, boil one minute, reduce it
to low; remove from heat and let it cool down; the cool down process is important. Kay and I added the cheese on top of the bowl just before serving and this seemed to work well. Otherwise the cheese is stringy.

RX List site

Do you want to know more about the meds your doctor has prescribed? I went to this site and found out oodles I did not know about the meds I take including what substances they are made from. Saffron is in one of my medications. I was impressed with this site.

Another Guy

Another fellow, name of Don, went to Progreso for diesel fuel in the 5 gallon containers. He did this right after Butch had gone down, in fact he went with Butch and then turned around to go back again to refill the tanks for the guy who owned them. They stopped him and chewed him out at the border. Told him that they could fine him as much as $250...but wouldn't this time. He assured them he would never be back for diesel fuel in a container again. I think the guys have been sufficiently educated on this issue.
I do not believe they would have even looked at him except their computer told them this was his second trip down for the day.
It is definitely tighter at the border. Don't mess with them.

Butch's Big Adventure:

Butch's Big Adventure:
As I am sure many of you know, Butch has been grumbling about fuel prices. A fellow in the park has been driving to Progreso for diesel fuel and he has an extra tank on the back of his truck but the pump didn't work. So he thought he would get it fixed and Butch had plans to go with him and then put the fuel they would purchase for about $2 a gallon in the MoHo. But the guy never got around to it!
Butch mentioned it often...then he had a conversation with another fellow in the park who had several tanks that he was taking down. So Butch borrowed the tanks and down we went for diesel fuel. We went with Dale C. in his truck. The guys filled up the tanks while Norma and I shopped. At the border on the way back Butch declared the diesel fuel and the border guy asked if it was for our personal use. "Yes" we said. Then he said,
"Are the lines hooked up direct to the truck?" and Dale said "Yes". Butch didn't hear that part.

Now Butch had to return today in our car to get the tanks filled up to replace the fuel that had belonged to the fellow he borrowed them from. So down he went. He didn't declare it and he didn't get checked. You are supposedly allowed to bring back 100 gallons as long as it is for personal use. But there was a fellow at the pumps who had been turned back at the border, sitting there with 100 gallons he could not get back across.
Butch didn't sleep too well over all this. I told him from the gitgo I didn't think all this hoopla was worth the hassle but of course he begged to differ with me.
I slept quite well last night. Oh by the way, he purchased 40 gallons at $2.15 a gallon. And we are done with that for now.
