Hi Dave,

 RH> Motels and meals, plus sleeping in our own bed at night. Had a VT
 RH> meeting trip today, looks like 7 adults, 2 kids going. We'll be staying
 RH> just outside of Waterbury instead of 45 minutes away in
 RH> Washington--just a couple of miles up the road from an apple
 RH> cidery--they also make really good apple cider doughnuts.

 DD> I'm not much on cider doughnuts. They're OK ... but so is kissing you
 DD> old maid auntie. I much prefer hot cider as a beverage ... I first met
 DD> it at Lincoln's New Salem State Park during their winter festival. I
 DD> enjoyed it so much I asked for (and received) the recipe. It tastes as
 DD> if you're dringing apple pie.   Bv)=

I like both the cider (hot or cold) and the doughnuts. (G)

 DD>       Title: Campfire Casserole
 DD>  Categories: Beef, Pork, Beans, Chilies, BBQ
 DD>       Yield: 7 servings

 RH> This looks like it could be done with any combination of beans, meat
 RH> and seasoning--a good side dish to take to the cook out we do with the
 RH> church we work with up in VT.

 DD> If I ever make it I'll lose te kidney beans (a texture thing with me)
 DD> in favour of red beans or black beans. And might substitute Polish or
 DD> Smoked sausage for the bratwurst.

That would work. Last night I made sauerbraten for supper. Couldn't get
to my usual recipe for the marinade so I winged it--turned out probably
the best one I've ever made. Gingersnaps for gravy came from Wegman's.
(G) In the marinade I used peppercorns, whole cloves, whole allspice,
juniper berries and bay leaves plus cider vinegar, a bit of sugar and
water.
