We love it though, lots of old Live Oak trees in our side yard...you just can't buy old oak trees. We do like our screened in pool...it held up better in the storms than the new ones they have out now.<br /><br />You should be able to pick up a small can or tamarind nectar in the grocery store. I drink Jimenez brand and pour it over a tall glass of ice. It has a sweet tart tast, i've always liked it. I have served a pitcher of it at book club...the ice will water it down a little.tinyskillethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11921649923651185462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-62998320334149037.post-21560018560146507862012-07-27T10:41:30.178-04:002012-07-27T10:41:30.178-04:00So funny I've been drinking tamarind fresca be...So funny I've been drinking tamarind fresca before I was using it in cooking.tinyskillethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11921649923651185462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-62998320334149037.post-62672928844341626602012-07-27T10:40:21.369-04:002012-07-27T10:40:21.369-04:00I always seem to do this to you don't I Diane?...I always seem to do this to you don't I Diane?!
