Head Cheese Anyone?
Once upon a time, a looonnngg time ago (about 25 years ago) ...
My aunt Peggy's dad wanted to make head cheese but he didn't know how. So after a few phone calls to my aunt Claudette, he started with the job of creating this farmer's delicacy. Nervous about how it would turn out, he kept phoning aunt Claudette. After a while aunt Claudette got tired of all the phone calls so she went over to his house. Aunt Peggy's dad had the big ol canner pot boiling away on the stove when aunt C got there. So she went straight to the pot and lifted the lid, and there through the fog of the steam; were 2 eyes staring back at her! Hmmm head cheese!
