OK. Not really related, but we're making sloppy joes at cooking camp
tomorrow. (i'm a vegetarian so i won't be tasting them =) but your
thread made me immediately start thinking of our recipe.

our ingredients include: ground beef, onion, bell pepper, tomato paste,
lots of spices, beef broth. no gumbo, no okra, no soup.

the rest of our menu is oven-baked crispy fries with parmesan cheese
and ranch for dipping, and patriotic pound cake, a lemon flavored cake
with whipped cream, fresh strawberry 'stripes' and fresh blueberry
'stars'. cherry limeade to drink.

have i mentioned that i love my job? =) =) =)
