Hi Dave,

DD> I was near to bled out internally. They just cut me sdrift again -
DD> feeling much better about life this go.

RH> Not fun, good thing it was caught. I noticed that you weren't on Fido,
RH> figured you were still recouperting. Saw a bunch of posts from you in
RH> today's packet--things are returning to normal. (G)

DD> Well ...... as normal as *I* ever get.  Bv)=

I tell folks that normal is a setting on my dryer.

DD> Here's another to spring on them .... it's near the top of my "Round
DD> Tuit" list.


DD>       Title: Easy Four-Layer Chocolate Dessert

DD>       Yield: 15 servings

RH> Probably won't do it for that group as one person in it avoids caffiene
RH> in all forms, even chocolate. I've done a 7 layer dessert (with graham
RH> crackers, pudding and cool whip) but that was before he started the
RH> caffiene avoidance. This one might go into the "try for a different
RH> group pot luck" filing tho.

DD> No Mountain Dew for him, then. Does he sleep a lot at the meetings?

Most often I see him with a water bottle. I've not noticed him dozing
off at our meetings. He retired from driving a UPS truck at the end of
2019, probably slept pretty good after a day of running with packages.
First year of retirement was hard because of covid--all the things he'd
planned to do were not happening. Things have improved and he went to VT
with us last year, planning to go this year. I know if I need an extra
set of hands in the kitchen, he can fill in almost as good as Steve. (G)

DD> My niece brought this over last night "Because I knew you wouldn't
DD> feel like cooking>"

DD> Which was true. She also brought the recipe - because she knows me too
DD> well sometimes.  Bv)=

DD> If/when I make it I may (probably) swap Ritz style crackers for the
DD> tater chips.


DD>       Title: Sick Day Casserole
DD>  Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Herbs, Chilies, Pasta
DD>       Yield: 6 servings


Looks almost like chicken soup in casserole form. BTW, Mike took some of
that dessert home, shared with his sister and she wanted the recipe as
much as he did. We're going to try it with cherry or peach pie filling
next time we make it. Cinnamon graham crackers complimented the
blueberries, should also work well with the peach filling.
