I got 8/11 and am also ready to travel. I'm embarrassed to admit that I
got the one about Spain wrong and I am a Spanish teacher. LOL.



There is a steakhouse chain (a chain of informal restaurants
specializing in beef dishes, particularly steaks) here in the USA,
called Logan's Roadhouse, that places a tin bucket of peanuts on each
table as an appetizer. You are expected to drop the shells onto the
floor, and they sweep the shells up at closing time each night. I
haven't seen that custom at any other restaurant chain; perhaps
someone got the idea from a trip to Spain?

Oh yes I remember there was such a roadhouse across from work many years.
We used to like to go over at lunch or after work
and eat the peanuts while waiting for our orders.
The restaurant has sinced changed many hands .Don't think it was Logan
though. I haven't seen any Logan here in Ontario, if not in
Canada.




Hushpuppies are served in lots of southern places before meals.




In 48 years of eating in Southern places I've never been served a
hushpuppy before a meal.
I'm interested...Where are these places?

NOTE: She didn't even bother to post the link to the food quiz, so what's
the point of this useless blethering on her part on rec.food.cooking? It's
not like anyone (but me and maybe a couple of others) have any clue what
she's talking about over there.

slam the doors.

Right. She cross-posted it because it's commentary from cat fanciers
who share an interest in regional food. Now, how many food
enthusiasts are also cat fanciers? Probably there are some. Why not
welcome the possibility of new participants in your stagnant,
self-absorbed newsgroup?

I'm afraid Dan has brainwashed you with his happy horse****. I'll bet
he's had your pants off, too, in the back seat of whatever car he is

The question is. Does she know what she's talking about? I seriously
doubt it, I think she needs treatment by a mental health proffesional.

Charlie, Jill has already submitted to me. I controlled her by her anger.

[[This snippet was

I had a feeling something like that would happen, after I saw this
particular post last night:

http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...c6a7d823b1ecd8

I guess it's a mixed blessing that accessing Usenet via the WWW doesn't
provide the ability to killfile. It means that all posts, threads, or
whatever are available, and it's for the user to decide which things to
read and which to avoid.

I happened to read that particular item last night and thought, "Oh,
great. Now the cooking people are going to wonder what's going on."

I guess the cooking group regulars will be doing some plonking before
long.

Charlie, at the very least, that was uncalled for. Furthermore, after the
Conan affair, ANYTHING questioning Bloody Mary's mental state is fair game.

Hi Bubba! I live in Raleigh, NC--still southern by some standards,
but if you are in the Mississippi delta I imagine not.

Every Mom and Pop seafood house between here and the actual coast
serves a basket of hush puppies before the meal. Captain Stanley's,
in Garner NC had the best, but they have gone out of business.

There is also a very old place in Raleigh called 42nd Street Oyster
Bar (it was there during the Great Depression and is still there but
has been made "upscale') that serves a basket of hush puppies
with a ramekin of whipped butter for dipping. It's the
bypass-before-you're-fifty special.

Now then, whereabouts are you?
