Oh Glenda I love California Kitchen pizza!I have not been to one since we moved here though I need to find one. Patti they only sell the Johnsoville brat patties at walmart for now according to their website, I have no idea why. The beef ribs last night, they ended up being much fattier than I thought so that was not good, the flavor was great and my husband ate a plate full but I do not like that fatty taste and I could taste that. Had it not been for that it would have been great. The bbq sauce I used was Sweet Baby Ray's which is my fave and I just added some Frenches mustard to it for the twang and put a chopped up purple onion in there with it. I started it on high for about an hour and a half then turned to low for about 4 hrs. I would do it again.

Marilyn, are you building a new barn "from scratch"? That's quite a job. Your dinners sound good and I'm sure Jody appreciates them. I am going to make your cake with the candied fruit in it this year for sure. I bought the fruit quite a while ago. Hope it's still good, although I can't see how it could go bad. Raven, LOL! Harry used to call his lab work visiting the vampires, too. That shrimp po-boy sure sounds yummy. Shirley, I think asked you about your sisters before--I have 5 also. I have one brother, too. Yeah, I'm not big on sauerkraut, but that's just me. Alisande, the recipe sounds good and the picture looks good. Did you like it? I think I'd like it on rice better than mashed potatoes.

Friend was off work today, so we went to Joe's Italian, my favorite, her first time. Not her last NOW. I had meatballs and marinara with a very fresh salad Friend had Chicken Parmigiana Sub breaded chicken breast mozzarella cheese and pomodoro sauce on an Italian roll We shared their huge slice of Zebra cake, and friend took home more than half. Mama had a birthday this week.

Glenda: I need to try an eggroll sometime. Your meal sounds like a pretty good one. Alisande: This is the first time I've ever heard of sardine spread. I think my Dad would have liked it. I'd like a bite, just to try. Pillog: Is matzah all you ate? Moni: A salad is good, but that cake sounds almost sinful. lol Audrey: My chicken breast was very good. I love the cartoon. I hope your concoction tastes good. Shirley
