WE ARE TALKING GAS FOOD

HAPPY MONDAY MORNING SPEAKIES:

Hoping you all had a great weekend and a wonderful Easter Sunday. How are those tummies from eating all those chocolate bunnies, marshmallow peeps, malted eggs, jelly beans and the rest of those goodies you nabbed from the kid’s baskets? Perhaps you over indulged with all that ham, kielbasa, potato salad, coleslaw, pickles and piwo (that’s beer in Polish). What the heck as long as you had a good time and some Tums you made it to Monday.

I forgot a food holiday on Saturday it was “PIGS IN THE BLANKET DAY” or as we Polish say “GOLABKI.” It is a favorite of mine and my grandmother and mother made some good ones. Roe made them a few weeks ago and they were delicious but they do take time to prepare. Some people like them plain but I prefer them with the tomato sauce on top covering the cabbage it gives them flavor and something to soak up your crusty bread with. My grandmother and mother always served them with mashed potatoes and red beets, a typical Polish Sunday dinner.

Today we celebrate “LICENSE PLATE DAY.” Most states have on general license plate, NO NOT FLORIDA, we have the following breakdown:

18 – Environmental Concerns (Like Save the Shark, The Manatee, The Panther etc. etc.) – I want to add another one called “SAVE THE FIREANT.”

40 – Miscellaneous.

9 – Pro Sports
36 – Universities

TOO MANY, TOO MANY, TOO MANY.

Today is the official start of “NATIONAL EGG SALAD WEEK.” I like egg salad now here is the way I enjoy it on a nice crisp round deli roll with a little lettuce and one slice of a large juicy red tomato, bite into that and the egg salad starts to move out from under the roll and you just take another bite to get it before it falls. I want one now, I may have to make some this evening for lunch tomorrow. Have a great day Guys and Dolls and lay off the candy today.
