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:

Take it on good authority, her nomenclature is correct.

You'd be taking on a long and honorable tradition.

Omigosh, do not do that. The stuff is sooooo good.

Larry was Baptist. And country. After services, you should have food, but we're talking Baptist food. Southern Baptist food.

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.

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

[Mik]

OK, I looked them all up. Now I recognize them.

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

Pierogi
Empanadas
Pot Stickers
Kaldunai

etc.

Ahoy Frank! Good to hear from you.

Thanks, brother! I'm not here as often, but I'm here as much as I'm able.

[taiwan_girl]

@Frank_W Come more often!!

[Jolly]

That's what she said...

[George K]

Bump...it's been a year.

[Copper]

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

Is he resting in peace? He would probably prefer something more stimulating.

[kluurs]

Yeah, he really didn't have any prep time. That happens a lot.

[kluurs]

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

[Mik]

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

[Jon]

I had that thought for a quick second too.
