Being Dead Is No Excuse

Tired of Dieting?

Do you eat too much?

Did you ever notice that

part of the word

DIET

is

DIE?

Die-t (get it)?

Anyway,

I don't live in the

South anymore

but I can tell you

those

Southerners sure know how

to host a funeral.

Now- I was not paid to

promote this cookbook..

but you can find it

at any

Barnes & Nobles..

or Amazon..

or..you know..

wherever they sell books.

BEING DEAD IS NO EXCUSE

is

The Official Southern

Ladies Guide to Hosting

the Perfect Funeral.

Today I will share

one recipe with you.

It is the funniest cookbook

I have ever read.

And,

after I share one of

these over-the-top

recipes..

and you have drooled into

your keyboard,

I will bring you back

to reality..

with a vision

that will make you

lose your appetite..

I promise!

I promise!

I promise!

Here's the recipe

from Page 58

Methodist Party Potatoes

Party Potatoes might sound a bit jolly for

a funeral, but no self-respecting

Delta Methodist is buried

without them.

Note to purists:

If you refuse to cook with

corn flakes..skip this recipe.

Ingredients:

1- 2 lb. package frozen hash browns

10 oz. grated sharp cheddar cheese

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 pint sour cream

1-10oz can cheddar cheese soup

(do not dilute-Lord help you)

1 tsp. salt

2 tsps. coarsely ground pepper.

Topping: TA-DAH

2 cups corn flakes

1 stick butter

Preheat oven to 350º

Prepare the hash browns according to pkg

directions. Combine the cooked hash browns

with the other ingredients.

Place in a 13X9" casserole dish.

Top the casserole with corn flakes

and dot with butter.

Bake 40 minutes,

or until golden,

crisp and bubbly.

After you've eaten your fill,

ask the Doctor to add Lipitor.

Serves eight.

Now...

Remember?

I promised to take

your appetite away...

Yes I did..

SO

Lose that hungry feeling

a promise is a promise.
