At the end of our block, they hold an annual pot luck for the neighborhood. Its a cul de sac street, so they close it off to traffic, put out tables, everyone brings a pot luck dish. The Email invitation says that people with the last initials A-G bring salads, G through o bring main dishes, a small group brings paper plates and silverware Everyone brings their own beverage. It has grown over the years. Its wise to start with people who live in a connected area first and work from there, and have it outside. You can get permits to close off a street and have a block party. Just be sure to invite everyone on that block to begin with. Where I lived before we had walk streets with no traffic so it was easy to put tables out and do a block party on holiday weekends. July 4, etc., Dont forget you do need a clean up crew for the next day. If you are willing to organize this--its wonderful. People are happy to go to these block parties, it just takes somebody who is interested in setting it up. Discuss this with several neighbors and together pick a day and a place to have it--outside. Send out flyers. Yippee block party. Get Email addresses for next year. Guests sign in at party. Take photos--put one on next years Email announcement & flyer, and presto--you have the 2nd annual block party. Then when you run for mayor--you have a mailing list and supporters.

Traditional British sandwich fillings: Egg salad topped with mustard and cress (any sprouts would do) Curried egg salad Tomato and egg (slices of tomato and hardboiled egg) -- goes a bit soggy) Banana Salmon and cucumber (Mashed up tinned salmon topped with sliced cucumber) Jam Marmite 'Chip buttie' -- french fries in a sandwich. i think they're revolting, but they're very popular in some parts of Britain Beth

WOW Sher, Doesnt sound like you need any help at all, you ought to be teaching time and home management classes! I just come here to check out recipes and ideas since I cook 95% of the meals, my wife doesnt really enjoy cooking unless the notion strikes her. Good luck, you sound like a terrific lady, I'm sure your children and foster children think so too. Stephen

Yes, I freeze it and also refrigerate it. To reheat it after you thaw it out put it in a brown paper bag and place in the microwave a few seconds. Watch carefully so it doesn't catch fire but it tastes more like fresh cooked using this method.
