George! Got a nice email from him. Told me of his travels, and shared some info for me to read for my upcoming Scotland/Ireland trip. Ended with Regards, etc etc. No invite. That's ok! The nice part was gal pal thought enough of me to give George my phone #, email. He lives in her private little community.

YOu CAN get a discount or maybe it's free BUT my insurance does not allow me to get it. I'm Blue Cross with PEHIP which is what I have as a retired educator, and PEHIP is not accepted. Some forms of Blue Cross are accepted but not mine. Call your gym accounting dept PLUS your insurance company and ask. I did both! There are many in my water aerobics that have that special Silver Sneakers discount. I WISH, but my membership is only $41 a month but a senior single.

The person that shared one of these recipes is Connie from North Dakota. The pull apart that I make are called Good Morning Kisses with hershey kisses rolled up in the biscuit dough. Cheddar Ranch pull apart bread 1 round loaf Sourdough bread unsliced 3/4 cup butter melted 2 Tbsp. ranch dressing mix dry, do not prepare 5 strips bacon cooked and finely chopped 1/2 to 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese may need more depending on how cheese you want Slice bread to make 1/2 to 1-inch sections slicing almost all the way to the bottom of the loaf. Be careful not to cut too far or to cut through. I used a serrated knife and cut on inch slices all the way down the width way of the loaf. Then I used my kitchen sheers to snip the 1/2 to 1-inch sections on each row, just to avoid any of them tearing off. Place loaf on cookie sheet. Combine melted butter and ranch dressing mix and stir to evenly combine. Evenly pour and distribute melted butter/ranch dressing mix between each of the sections, making sure to get in-between each one. Trust me, you want the buttery goodness :) If you need more butter, simply melt as much more as needed. Evenly distribute the cooked and finely chopped bacon between each of the sections. Evenly distribute the cheddar cheese between each of the sections, adding more cheese if needed. Cover bread loosely with foil. Bake at 350 for about 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes Here's the other one: 12 slices bacon, strips diced 2 (12 ounce) tubes refrigerated biscuits 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese 1 tablespoon Italian salad dressing mix 2 teaspoons olive oil Directions: 1 In a large skillet,cook bacon over medium heat until cooked by not crisp. Using slotted spook, remove to paper towels to drain. Separate biscuits, cut each biscuit into quarters. 2 In a large bowl, combine the cheese, dressing mix, oil and bacon. place half the biscuit pieces into a greased 10" fluted tube pan, sprinkle with half of the cheese mixture. Top with remaining biscuit pieces and cheese mixture. 3 Bake at 375 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 5 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate. Serving immediately.

I've be OUT before this Siberian blast arrives! Thanks for remembering me :o)
