A wee BloodyPulpit:
1. The latest DCV Newsletter came w/ this shipment Thurs. It's always a good read and BillSmart does a good job of editing the Newsletter.
There are sometimes recipes included in the Newsletter. This time, I noticed the recipes looked particularly interesting. And...then...I noticed they were credited to one John Fodera. And the DCV Newsletter included his name in the credit...in tiny 3-pt. typeface.
OTOH, if you look at the DCV FaceBook page,
DCVFaceBookPage
you will find my picture...count 'em...two times in the last month.
So I figure the score is:
FoMan: 0.3 pts
Tom: 2 pts.
I may just submit a recipe for classic Kansas tuna noodle casserole and surge into a commanding lead over Fo!!!
