    BTW, are you using miracle whip for your tater salad. Likely 🙁

    So exactly what is wrong with Miracle Whip? Or is that supposed to be
    some kind of insult?

    I don't care for it, personally. Too sweet. But why disparage
    someone else's personal tastes?

    Carol

    I do not like Miracle Whip myself. For some reason it's too sweet for me.
    OTOH, lots of people use it. My mother uses it in potato salad but the
    sweetness is cut from the mustard she adds. To each his/her own.

    (Jack Schidt's) Strawberry Spring Salad

    Details? I made my aut helen's spinach-strawberry-pecan salad with
    poppyseed dressing tonight. I love fruit in salads.

    Through the magic of Google:

    Strawberry Spring Salad
    Yield: 4 Servings

    3 tablespoons White wine vinegar
    3 tablespoons Water
    1 tablespoon Honey
    2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
    1/8 teaspoon Salt
    1/8 teaspoon Pepper
    3 cups Strawberries, quartered
    10 oz Italian Blend salad greens
    4 teaspoon Pine nuts, roasted

    Combine first 6 ingredients and stir well with a whisk. Combine strawberries
    and greens. Add the vinegar mix; toss to coat. Sprinkle with nuts.

    Anadama Bread

    Which is......?

    Um...kind of a dense bread made by adding cornmeal and molasses to a white
    bread dough. It's one of those old New England Yankee recipes. I like it
    with ham.

    Stupid grocery had rhubarb for about 1 day. If i could hope to find it,

    I got the rhubarb from a local farmer's market. It BETTER be good, since I
    lose about two-and-a-half hours of sleep when I go there!

    Hm. Pretty similar idea. Sub spinach for baby greens, pecans for pine
    nuts.

    Dressing is more 50s American - vegetable oil (I use canola), apple
    cider vinegar, a hefty dose of sugar, a little paprika, micned onion
    and worcestershire, plus poppy seeds, emulsified in the blender. gonna
    try this one - lighter, more my style, I'd guess.

    Ouch! Our ';farmers market" is actually several small shops/stalls run
    by various small local farms, but no rhubarb that i've seen. it's open
    all day, no lost sleep there! and my local farm stand doesn't open til
    april.

    I wonder about that too. My mother always used Miracle Whip because she
    preferred it to mayo. My wife insists on real (bottled) mayo. I don't
    much
    care for either, but the first time I needed mayonaise for something and
    found
    out that we were out I made some and my son went nuts over it. He was
    putting
    it on everything. So FWIW I find commercial mayo and Miracle Whip to be
    somewhat different, but both are a poor substitute for real mayonnaise.

    I think my mom prefers mayo. It's been so long since I left home I don't
    remember what she used then but I think now it's mayo. I don't really use a
    whole lot of Miracle Whip on anything but hubby eats it like it's going out
    of style. No more than I would use real mayo myself I just never saw the
    reason to make it and throw away half or more.

    Quoted message said:

    Uh, yeah, I'm using miracle whip. Because that's what the recipe *my
    husband's grandmother's) calls for. I hate Miracle whip, but it makes
    the potato salad taste like her potato salad, and that's why I make the
    damned thing every year in the first place.

    What's wrong with Miracle Whip? I use real mayonnaise in egg salad and
    devilled eggs because it works better with eggs, I don't know why.
    In potato salad I sometimes a little mayo with the MW if the potato
    salad has boiled eggs in it. Other than that, I pretty much just use
    Miracle Whip.

    I like the concept of real mayo better, but there's something about the
    taste that almost makes me gag and I don't know why. Maybe it's just
    too rich and oily.

    Every year I feel like I'm the only person on RFC who doesn't have an
    Easter dinner. I've never celebrated Easter, but mom did like to use
    the excuse to make a nice dinner, especially last year when she was
    sick. So now this year Easter has bad memories instead of just being a
    holiday I never thought about. Feh 🙁

    I'm more or less in the group who celebrates Easter as an excuse to
    have a nice dinner...and those chocolate bunnies and all...grew up in
    an Italian Catholic family, and some things just stay a tradition.
    This year Easter falls on my DH's birthday, so I'll have to make an
    extra fancy dessert.

    delivery and watch MST3K to try to get my mind off everything.

    That got my attention!! I haven't seen MST3K for YEARS! I think I'll
    go look up the TV listings now....
    Easter menu will be roasted cornish game hens stuffed with wild rice,
    dried cherries and pecans, steamed asparagus with a bit of butter and
    lemon, and green leaf salad with whatever looks good at the market and
    a citrus dressing. Oh, and maybe a grand coconut layer cake for
    dessert.

    Hope your DH feels better soon.

    Our year-round farmer's market is Saturday mornings from 8:30 AM to noon. My

    drive to the market takes about an hour.

  19. Possibly because ham, otherwise know as pork, is not Kosher, therefore
    a step of separation from the Passover, which is definitely a Jewish
    holy day. Easter, the fulfillment of the prophecies, was not accepted
    by the Jewish peoples so it becomes a sort of 'nyah, nyah,nyah' in that
    if you won't recognize our holy day we'll just serve food you can't eat
    to spite you......nothing like good ol' Christian charity is there.

    Mine is not from the supermarket and I don't appreciate the
    implication, thief. Your sil is free to do as she chooses. I'm
    making all of the above including the cheese cake from scratch
    although I did not cure the ham. Scallop potatoes are always made
    from scratch. You should know from my posts, you know the ones you
    don't steal, that I do things from scratch.
