    I’m going to have to look up strawberry pretzel salad.

    No need. I, Cats, hereby do it for you. This recipe is from Food.com: https://www.food.com/recipe/strawberry-pretzel-salad-29400

    Here's one that claims to be "retro": https://www.thekitchn.com/strawberry-pretzel-salad-recipe-23036093

    Thanks, @Catseye3, for using your Gigabytes quota to do this for us so that we do not have to.

    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:

        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...

        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.

        Elbows up!

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

            I'm in the same boat you are, although I wonder if kubasa and kielbasa are similar...

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

                Pierogi
                Empanadas
                Pot Stickers
                Kaldunai

                etc.

                              I thought about this a few days ago, I figured it was about a year.

                                  In the obituary, there was no mention of his spouse, son, nor grandchildren. Weird. Sad.

                                    I saw the thread and immediately thought it’s all a big joke and he’s back.
