LH and Kay - help yourselves. There's plenty to go around.

Believe it or not, I never had chili or fried chicken until I was married and moved away from home. I grew up in a New England Italian family, and that was just something my mother or other relatives ever cooked. Of course the fast food places like KFC, Mexican, Chinese, etc, were non existent back in those dark ages too. We ate a lot of Italian, seafood, and good old roast beef, pork chops, roast chicken and roast lamb. And I never heard of a taco either, and can even remember the name of the taco joint in CA where I had my first - Tico Taco!

Yikes - am I dating myself, or what??? I'd better go get my cane and wrap up in my shawl and spend the rest of my day in the old rocking chair.
