I was surprised when I had a slip for a package,

in my PO Box.

It was from Cathy. A box of Goodies.

There was:

A Bag of " Kiss my Grits " Old Fashioned , Stone Ground,

All Natural, Whole Grain Corn, Grits.

A Large Jar of Everglades Seasoning .

A jar of Raw and Unprocessed, Florida Honey.

A jar of Gator Hammock , " COOTER RUBB ".

- - - - - - - - - -

Last but not least,A jar of Cathy's " Homemade Marmalade "

I opened it first thing and gave it a taste test.

There was something wrong, so I'll have to get a glass of milk and some Ritz Crackers.

If I can't figure out what it is, she may have to send another Jar ?

I'll sacrifice myself again, to be sure it is safe for others.

I told her not to send anything but she is stubborn.

That's OK, I'll get even.

I'll probably acquire a Southern Drawl after using all these goodies.

Thanks Cathy !!!!!

Good to know. I figured the bottle is a good protector and the bubble warp envelope is insulated enough to make the journey. I am worried what I am going to do when I hit 60 if I am this way now. It's a good thing I didn't send my false teeth out. Stush

Hi Smithseeds I also sent you an email but have not heard from you either. I sent it the first or second day of your post. Did you get my email? You can't email through Gardenweb because I don't have an email address yet(I'm working on it). When I emailed you it had my private email address on it. Anyway I hope to hear from you soon. Nickie

Gina, hot flashes? Have fun! I was lucky, had a few then they were gone....except, each night for a couple of years I would wake up about 4AM, night sweats. Cathy... I love all the goodies. I know you had fun shopping. I haven't seen a colander like that before. Blunt end spoons are my very favorite. Any store I'm in, that sells kitchen goods, I look for that style of spoon, I buy everyone I find that's different from what I have...big, little, metal, plastic, wood, holey (sp?), solid! No I'm NOT going to count how many I have. :) Great package! Nancy

That's a neat gift and I know first hand that Cathy's marmelade is finger lickin' good! ENJOY!!

David- Here's some TV Triva:
That came from a show called 'Alice', the TV version of "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore" and the line was said by Flo, her fellow waitress.
Funny, cuz it wasn't a show I really watched, but some words or phrases really do take root in our vernacular!

Mom:
I remember that !!! Now that you shook my memory bank.
Was Mel in that one or was it Mel's diner.
Too busy then to watch much TV .

Cathy:
I went thru 1/2 of the Marmalade. Can't tell you how good it was,
because I don't want to change your Personality.

If I was to say it has the wonderfull Flavor and Aroma of
the Citrus Groves of Florida,
You may get over confident and not make it the same.

I thought the same thing Shaun. Ouch!

Lou, isn't our Cathy a mighty good friend and marmalade maker? I too love that Everglades Seasoning but of course mine has been looooong gone.

Lou, that is a little spooky for sure. Seems to happen alot on this forum when it comes to food.

What a neat and thoughtful gift! Lou, of course you're going to aquire a Southern drawl with this package, cause you can't say "Kiss my grits" without a bit a twang.

Wasn't it Fannie Flagg that played Flo? I'm a big fan of her novels, and just picked up Fried Green Tomatoes from the Library. I saw the movie years ago, but haven't ever read the book. I decided her writing's good enough, and it's been so long since I've seen the movie, I'd enjoy reading the book. But I digress.

Good job, Cathy!

Hi everyone:
Thanks !!!

Cathy:
I tried the Cooter Rub on a giant Poke Chaop and added more Garlic Powder.
Hey girl , that's good stuff.

Have to try the " Everglades Seasoning " next.

I'm still sampling the Marmalade.

Let my Son try some, he said,
" Yeh! There's something wrong, I better take the rest home with me. "
Guess it runs in the family. LOL!!!!!

Lou, you are a naughty boy trying to wheedle more marmalade from Cathy..
I used to watch that show too! It took place in Mel's Diner but it was Alice..Flo the redhead wasn't Fannie Flagg
it was Polly Holliday and Linda Lavin played Alice. And I got it from Wikipedia, cause I could picture her, but couldn't remember her name! :)

You are right !!!
I better quit joking
Cathy is going to come back with " Lou , Kiss my Grits "

I thought the TV show was at " Mel's Diner "
Didn't Alice have a Son in the Show ???

Lou did call me to say there was something wrong with the marmalade. Since I am a novice canner, I have been freaking about sending a bad canning project. I gave my brother bad marmalade from last year's batch so I don't think Lou is kidding.

However, we have consumed 5 jars of the 2009 batch which is what I sent Lou.

Very nice package, I remember Lou gave you some very nice goodies from your get-together. My Everglades stash is long gone too.

Lou, I just got your message, thanks for verifying that it is okay and you are okay! Peppi gave me a big a$$ canner last year when she and Sheshebop stayed here so I used that for this year's batch.

Jessy, you are too funny for early Sunday morning.

I was up till 3 AM. Waiting for a call, because I knew you were worried, about the Marmalade.

Did the Everglades Seasoning on the Poke chop, thing last nite.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Lou you really are a bad boy.. Shaking head. Scaring Cathy like that. Wonderful gifts. So fun. She really thought of you when she bought that stuff. Cooter rub. Maybe cuz you're a bad ole coot!! (I'm old so I can call another old coot]

For all of ya'll out of your Everglade Seasoning, I went to good ole google to see what it was and found their site. They do ship.

Here is a link that might be useful: Everglades Seasoning
