: MMMMMarcia,

: I have these warty things growing on my chest. In abundance. When I have Bettygnome scab them off, we call them nuts and use the phrase "Betty needs to go nutting again" as a polite way to say that she needs to do that particular surgery on my chest again. We save them up. They make great soup!

: MMMMarcia........dear.........you HAVE heard of tin cans right?
: You can get chestnuts and chestnut puree in cans these days.
: I mean, if you can ROYALTY in cans these days (Prince Albert) then why not chestnuts?

: Billygnome

BBBBillygnome...to the first half of this post, I say..."EEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!"

To the second half, I say, you may now color me informed! I had no idea you could buy canned chestnuts, really. In fact, I'm almost afraid to admit...I've never even SEEN a chestnut, much less tasted one. SOOOOOO...if'n you DO make this specialty dish, I'd be most proud to sample a smidgen, just to see what it's all about!

*me singing, here...*
Chestnuts simmering in a pot o' soup,
Billygnome's following his nose,
Carolina turkeys bein' munched by the troops,
And folks dressed up in period clothes...

Everybody knows a trail that runs high and low,
Is where Richfed will start the race,
GGGG's with their faces all aglow,
Will sweat and toil just to keep the pace.

We know that Haaaaaawkeye's on the way,
He and Ching really hope to save the day,
But bad ol' Magua's gonna try
To see if Uncas really knows how to fly.

And so I'm offering a simple plan,
For those who want to play it cool,
Get Gadget Girl to give you her PortaFan,
And stay behind to float around the pool!

(Hmmmmmm...methinks I'd better not give up my DAY job!)

MMMM
