    This really is like a family reunion at a funeral. People returning from far away, sharing news, sharing the loss of a person known by all.

    Larry can be pleased so many people care enough to share this time together.

    The only thing missing is the post service buffet and coffee.

    Nothing says funeral like a plate of egg salad sandwiches.

      Lord, I forgot how heathenistic y'all are.

      Larry was Baptist. And country. After services, you should have food, but we're talking Baptist food. Southern Baptist food. Fried chicken. Pot roast and gravy. Smoked pork shoulder. Snap beans and new potatoes. Butterbeans. Field peas. Fresh tomatoes and cucumbers. Some scattered casseroles, maybe a lasagna. Yeast rolls. Sweet tea.

      At least I hope so...

                      Re: "strawberry pretzel salad" as found by @Catseye3, it's a misnomer, not a "salad."

                      If it were up to me, a "strawberry pretzel salad" would simply be greens (spinach, lettuce, mixed greens, etc.) topped with strawberries and little pieces of pretzels. :man-shrugging:

                              Up here in the true North in the country, it’s food. Ukrainian food and lot’s of it. Pierogi, kubasa, nachninka, holopchy, khlib, borscht, griechka all washed down with rye whisky or Dido’s homemade horilka.

                              All blessed by the parish priest.

                                I have never seen such a list of foods I did not recognize. Pierogies and borscht, sure, but not the rest.

                                      Isn't it funny how so many cultures have their version of ravioli?

                                      Pierogi
                                      Empanadas
                                      Pot Stickers
                                      Kaldunai

                                      etc.

                                      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
