Hi Dave,

 DD> I note your return. Heck the chair is probably still warm.  Bv)=

 RH> Probably, it was that kind of a trip. Next oldest grandchild is just
 RH> short of 15; I think it will be a while before the next wedding.

 DD> You know what they say about "best laid plans ...."?

She just started high school; I think her parents will want her to
finish that before getting married.


 RH> We had about half an inch of rain from Idalia. Looks like Lee will
 RH> miss us, still keeping an eye on it tho. Got back from our quick trip
 RH> late Saturday afternoon, now catching up before we leave out again.
 RH> This one was out to Utah for our oldest grandson's wedding.

 DD> I foresee you joining the Great-grandma club soon.   Bv)=

 RH> They're talking about waiting a couple of years to build up a bit of
 RH> financial security--we'll see. One of her sisters just had a baby about
 RH> 6 weeks ago so they can sort of get the a parenting experience if they
 RH> baby sit.

 DD> See above. After hand holding a lady friend (who was abandonded by her
 DD> baby-daddy) through the delivery process and all of that I remain a
 DD> bit surprised that there are second (and more) babies. Made mt glad
 DD> the the old DNA dance left me as a guy.

Some deliveries are rougher than others. Mine were overall easy but I'm
glad I stopped at 2--and they were all natural.

 DD>  Categories: Five, Pork, Breads
 DD>       Yield: 6 Servings

 DD>     1/2 lb Diced ham

 RH> I'd think ground ham would work better, unless it's a fine dice.

 DD> I use (mostly) deli sliced ham no more than 1/8" thick. So, it's a
 DD> fine dice. Here are a couple recipes that illustrate taht.

OK, we get that from time to time but more often do a regular ham and
run scraps thru a food proccessor. Best hams we ever got were from a
Mennonite place in PA but his operation had a major fire some years ago
that put him out of business.
