Hi Dave,


DD> I'm making a nice roast to take to my brother's joint on 25 December.
DD> whole thing, sprinkle a 2 oz packet Lipton's Onion Soup Mix over the
DD> top and let it cook on low until galling apart tender.

RH> I can almost smell it now. (G)

DD> It seems to be a hit whenever I make it.

I'm not surprised.

DD>      8<----- CLIP ----->8

RH> I use the Organic Sprinkle, 24 herbs and spices, salt free (Paul C.
RH> Bragg's original 1930 blend). Yellow top, yellow label. I might pick up
RH> a different one to try next time we go down to Sprouts, just to try,
RH> but this is my favorite for soup stock seasoning.

DD> OK, Thanks. Now I know what Im looking for.

RH> And I might check out some of the others, in addition to the one we
RH> use. Do use Mrs. Dash lemon pepper on some things, usually mix some
RH> into chicken salad when I make it.

DD> I find most commercial lemon-peppers to have too much salt. I may took
DD> a look at Ms. Dash' ingredients panel.

Mrs. Dash specialises in salt free seasoning mixes. Don't remember why I
picked up the Braggs originally but it's a keeper in my spice cupboard
now.


DD> According to the forecast today (pedicted high 23F) is the last of the
DD> galloping chillblains.


DD> I've already made my pre-paid arrangement - right into the fire and
DD> the ashes into a large pickle jar to be used for traction on slick
DD> roads.

RH> We've made arraingements but not paid yet. Steve is debating a
RH> veteran's cemetary, free for him but a fee for me. BTW, I first heard
RH> of Tammy Duckworth when we were in HI; she had some connection to the
RH> state and used the first name Lada. Don't remember details tho.

DD> I think she may have been born in Hawaii. She certainly is a champion
DD> for Vets causes. And she abhors Cadet Bone Spurs.

She does have a lot going for her. Good to see that the vets have a
voice from somebody who served on active duty on their side.


DD> My store is having a Christmas Party on 16 December. I'll be taking
DD> this as my "covered dish":

DD>       Title: John Wayne Tater Tot Casserole
DD>  Categories: Chilies, Vegetables, Cheese, Dairy, Potatoes
DD>       Yield: 6 Servings

DD>      32 oz (2 cans) chilli w/beans
DD>       4 tb Dairy sour cream
DD>      15 oz Can whole kernel corn;

RH> Looks like it should fill a few bellies. (G)

DD> There will, no doubt be lots of other stuff as well.

Not surprising. It's always interesting to see the assortment at a pot
luck. Our Legion post and Auxiliary always do a pot luck in late January
or early February--too much going on in December so it's nice to have a
joint dinner when things have calmed down a bit. There's a group of vets
over at the post today watching the Army-Navy game but we took a pass on
that gathering.

DD> For breakfast on the 25th I'm sponsoring any of my family/extended
DD> family to the Interfaith Breakfast held annually at Temple B'rith
DD> Sholom. Then off to brother's with the roast.  Bv)=

DD> I'll miss the green chile that my recently deceased friend Les used to
DD> provie to put over the scrambled eggs.

Did he leave the recipe with his widow?
