Rick - didn't your home smell fabulous? The homemade breads, sauces, meats, cakes, pies, cookies..............

I got news for you - I was the oldest of the cousins - we had to grow up at that table because there were so many stuffed in the kitchen or dining room for eating! That makes you stay at the kids table until the kids start to get married and their parents start to die off (bad thing to say but its true!) to make room for you.

Ah, the good ole days of clam bakes. I miss those days. We always had a big steamer pot set up and everyone would bring sweet corn, sausage, potatoes or whatever and the pot was added to the whole day. Everyone would fight over the necter from the pot as the day was ending, lol.

This day and age we make Perogies. I set the kids up in the kitchen like an assembly line and we make a batch big enough to last about a month.

It's a good time and a chance to catch up due to everyones busy schedules. Chp busting makes it all the more enjoyable.

I thought I was the only one who made a ton of perogies! I can't make a small batch no matter how hard I try.

Lol Mama. What is a small batch of Perogies?
