Congratulations on both counts, dear Margaret! I often find it more
difficult to find a dress for an occasion than the difficulty
experienced by the bride in finding a husband <g>

I am very sorry to hear this. Condolences to you both.

Gazpacho! Gosh, I haven't thought of gazpacho since last summer.
Brilliant! I was racking my brain trying to think of a good summer
meal offering for our joint family Father's Day brunch. Perfect!
@@@@@ Now You're Cooking! Export Format
Gazpacho
soups and stews
1 clove garlic
3 pounds tomatoes
2 cucumbers
1/2 cup green pepper; minced
1/2 cup onion; minced
2 cups tomato juice
1/3 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons vinegar
salt and pepper
1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
Chop the garlic very fine and add to a large bowl with the tomatoes,
peeled, seeded and chopped. Try to save as much of th4e tomato juice
as you can. Peel and seed the cucumbers and add to the bowl with the

cover and chill thoroughly. Taste for seasoning. Let rest 12 or more
hours to allow flavors to meld.

waitress's, it would have been a very good dinner."
