Kim what a wonderful clam feast you had. I love clams and I will book mark this recipe for when I can make them again. Thank you for sharing your trip with us. I am dying to get back to NE.

I might start a petition to have the Squirrel dance pictures posted.

I am grateful for witnessing the dance first hand, but I think your readers are missing out. I am not sure that I have seen your snake dance performance, but it did remind me of “the wave.” Where you wiggle and move your arms up and down, you know, like at a baseball game!?! (Most people just leave out the wiggle)

Let me start off by reminding you that I do not like baked beans.

Walking into the kitchen and smelling them made me think twice! Glad I did. They are officially the only baked beans I will eat now!

To all Kim’s readers,

I am posting this late, so I am concerned no one will see it. HOWEVER, I find it quite necessary to comment on how good these were! She somehow neglected to mention that they were gone in a matter of minutes.

EVERYONE in the house liked them, even my picky son! He is tall enough now to grab things off the counters. Needless to say, his fingers were sticky and covered with cinnamon sugar until they disappeared.

They WERE amazing!!!

Yes, I am hard to say no to, but now do you understand why? Clams casino is my favorite recipe from growing up. (Back when I didn’t like peppers, onions or “green stuff”- I still ate them!) They were as great as I remember. Thanks for bending on this one!

I miss you too, Mom! Thanks for all the great food! I wish we could come have dinner with you more often!

Maybe if I had had those growing up I ould have never moved, eheheh!! Interesting the number of things labeled as French, could be Canandian though but that would put us back to Colonial times. I might get into that one day when we have coffee and cake, that was a little side note of my Masters thesis. Oh yeah, cake and history…my favorites!

“homemade baking powder” - Wow.

I am definitely putting these on the “to make soon” list.

Comment on Some Really GOOD Southern Sandwiches on White Bread with Arugula Herb Mayonnaise by Emily

Excellent recipe. One small change I’d make however is that I would use fig confit with cinnamon rather than the fig and ginger.
I find the fig confit from holyfoodimports.com to be one of the best money can buy.
