Hi Dave,

 DD> I can buy Duke's at my local Sav-A-Lot. Never seen it in any of the
 DD> other grocery stores. Which is sorta kinda odd as Sav-A-Lot is a
 DD> no-frills "budget priced" place.

 RH> Interesting. I can get Duke's at most any of the local grocery stores
 RH> now that I'm back in the south. Our older daughter's husband is from GA
 RH> and a few years ago they requested that we bring some Duke's when we
 RH> come to visit. He got her hooked on it; I think they usually get it via
 RH> Amazon now.

 DD> This just in. Hy-Vee carries Duke's in both regular and light. I was
 DD> there picking up stuff for tonight's supper when I stumbled across it.

And picked up a jar, I presume.


 DD> The writer credit on this recipe has got to be a pseudonym.

 DD>       Title: Lazy Girl Pizza Margherita

 DD>   Recipe by: Alexis Trebeck

 RH> Most likely but it could be a Canadian relative.

 DD> Alex' twin sister? That could be a Jeopardy question if true.

 RH> AFAIK, he wasn't a twin; I'm 99% sure it's not a daughter. Niece or
 RH> cousin, maybe.

 DD> Or no shared DNA at all. Just the same surname.

True, don't know how common the name is in Canada. I still miss him
hosting "Jeoparday"; Ken Jennings is an ok replacement but not Alex.
Some of the guest hosts they had after Alex passed away were really bad
but I can tolerate Ken.

 DD>   Last year our terrific pal Tommy (who was such a delight
 DD>   to hang out with this Christmas, btw) brought his nice
 DD>   friend Ethan over for dinner and Catchphrase; we ate
 DD>   this soup and Ethan went on to be a guest on Jeopardy!.

 RH> One of these days I may try out again. Did, and made the contestant
 RH> pool when we were in HI but they only took folks that wore uniforms
 RH> from that pool. Since I wasn't in the military, a doctor, fireman or
 RH> whatever, they didn't call me. The in person tryout was fun, don't know
 RH> if it would be so with it done on Zoom now.

 DD> Good luck. This is what I needed parts from the grocery store to make.

Looks good; I did the traditional corned beef and cabbage, with boiled
potatoes, carrots and parsnips yesterday. We also have a couple of
corned beef cuts currently on the smoker turning into pastrami.
