Cara- Thanks for the Springfield version of Cashew Chicken. I really crave this dish from time to time and have not managed to save a copy of this receipe in all my moves. Now I can just log on anytime I need a "fix" and cook this up. I think I will bring this dish to one of the Canadian get togethers I get invited to. I have been rather "adopted" by the Mason and Bouvette family, they have been to Springfield a few times (way before your time). I think they would enjoy this "southern dish". That's what they call anything from the US....
