Add it Up Saffron Rice

Love saffron rice. But I am puzzled as to why Alice always uses butter, when olive oil would work just as well, if not better - was she also cheating on Sam with a dairy farmer? One wonders.  I also disagreed with her recommended cookware, Alice and I aren't getting on so well lately. Anyway, the recipe is much like when making paella or risotto. You saute the uncooked rice in oil (butter, if you are Alice) with onions and garlic, stirring constantly, adding the chicken broth and saffron threads, boiling then simmering until the liquid is absorbed.  Served with grilled pork and a lovely green salad. Yummy.

Episode Note: "The Undergraduate" [Throughout the five seasons of the series, the Brady's are visited by a number of sports celebrities, this is the first.] At first Alice thinks Greg is sick, but then she learns that he is actually lovesick over a mystery woman named Linda and also happens to be failing in math class. Mike and Carol soon discover one plus one does indeed equal two and that the real trouble is his crush on the Algebra teacher, Miss Linda O'Hara, that is keeping him after school not an inability to master the equations. Greg is crestfallen to learn that Miss O'Hara is engaged to be married, but all is not lost when it is revealed that her fiancee is Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Wes Parker (that's okay, I don't know who he is either). With the incentive of tickets to opening day if he gets an A, Greg gives up his unrequited love and hits one out of the park.
