salad... with shredded carrots? oh, and then there's red punch, white
cookies, and mint candy...

I've attended my share of Lutheran potlucks where amazing
Jello salads served as edible art. I love 'em. In fact,
many years ago I decided the Jesus part wasn't for me.
But Jello remains a friend.

The church I went to when I was a kid had amazing potlucks and banquets.
Generally the more rural the area, the better the people are at cooking
mass quantities of food. A lot of women grew up on farms where they
were expected to cook a big meal for the field hands at the end of the day.

The jello salads I grew up around were lime jello with cottage cheese and
pineapple (no joke - it's actually quite good) and orange jello with shredded
carrots and pineapple (still a fave). I now make sparkling mandarin orange
jellow with crushed pineapple and mandarin oranges. People love it.

Recently I attended a potluck for Arlo's preschool and was amazed to find that
it consisted largely of Fried Chicken (mostly Colonel Sanders') and jello
salad. I've been to lots of Ann Arbor potlucks before, but have never seen
either. I guess I hang out in the wrong circles. There must be whole
different potluck cultures.

Yes. Different potluck cultures are typically a reflection of
differences in socioeconomic, philosophical, and/or epicurean status.
Since these types of status form multilayed, overlapping regions, the
resulting complexity of potluck cultural variation is immense.

#26 includes a lot of control characters that make my screen reset - could
you scribble it and repost, Larry? Here's what's in the item file:

I had a real problem with that too. It turned my screen into an editing
screen, not reading.

Jello salad?
Hooooonnney.
I grew up in the south and was brought up Southern Baptist. I have eaten
massive amounts of Jello salad at every major holiday and funeral. In my
world, Jello salad is strawberry jello with cream cheese and fruit
inside. My mom's jello salad rules.
At Thanksgiving there will be the asparagus casserole. This is a layer
after layer of asparagus and bread crumbs. The top is covered with
canned fried onion rings. Maybe cheese if you're feeling crazy.

When I attend potlucks at my church it consists of foods from Korea,
Japan, Puerto Rico, Guam, Mexico, Various parts of European culture,
american culture and experiments. There are major advantages to going
to a parish or church on a military base, one being you get to taste
various "cultures"

Can be green beans or asparagus, though asparagus is if you're trying to
be fancy.
Scott... dunno the recipe. Will have to check with mom.
Oddly, I don't much care for grits.

Sorry about #26 -- I got cut off in mid-session, and apparently the
system didn't terminate me gracefully.

I just finished "Quicksilver", the first book in Neal Stephenson's "Baroque
Cycle". It takes place in the late 17th century, and, as far as I can tell,
most of the historical events are accurate (the fiction comes in adding a few
protagonists and imagining their interactions with the historical characters).
Quite an interesting account of 25 years of English/French/Dutch history.
Lots of it deals with the relations of the Anglican, Puritan, Lutheran, and
Catholic churches and the nations which subscribed to these various
denominations.

Ken - getting a divorce may seem like "a shaky foundation" for a new
church, but it obviously wasn't to Henry. But the shaky foundations
are p[robably responsible for most of the changes to the Anglican
rites to make them more Protestant. The only thing Henry did was to
replace the Pope with himself as head of the Church - he remained "a
good Catholic" in most other ways till the end of his life. (It was
Henry VIII who was first given the title "Defender of the Faith",
now carried by all English sovereigns. Given to him by the Pope -
before he broke with Rome, of course.)
