                 HAM IT UP!

    This is one of those unusual "holidays"

I'll wager you don't have on your calendar.

November 9th is "National Scrapple Day!"

Scrapple is recognized as the first pork

product invented in America. In fact, it

was created by German immigrants who

settled in Pennsylvania. It is, traditionally,

a mush of pork scraps and trimmings

combined with cornmeal, wheat flour and

spices. The mush is then formed into a semi-

solid loaf, sliced and pan fried. Seems there's

no "half way" when it come to Scrapple. You

either like it or hate it! My wife and some of

her sibblings love it. Me, I'd prefer something

more substantial. Give me Spam any day!

Hope you're well, whatever's on your menu,

and that all your NEWS is good!
