    3. Jerilyn, I loved to make my stuffing with whole loaf bread too. You're right , the fun part was the mixing. I found the other day eggs that had been pasturized and you cannot notice any taste difference. Now to make Egg Nog again and not worry about the eggs. Do you know what time it is now?......for the dipping and enjoying of my favorite thingee?? Did get some Apple Cider today.

    2. Norma, My grandmother had one of those old iron stoves and to make toast she laid it on the burner of a two burner electric thing. Name eludes me right now. With real butter that was the best toast. She fried eggs in butter, too. Our toaster when I was young stood upright and the doors folded down. They sell for more now at the auction than they did back then. LOL Pat

We sometimes visited the Salvation Army there on the corner, too. I was sneaking into Tony Mart's when I was 16. I can't stand that they built a night club in it's place after it shut down. Bay Shores had closed by the time I started bar scene. The Anchorage used to have 10 beers for a dollar. Besides the Melody Lounge, there were the bars in Margate. I can't remember their names. They were all on one block. Then there was Dunes till Dawn, previously known as Mother's, I think. And the Attic. Do you remember the old Longport bridge? You could only drive 20 miles an hour over it. I loved the Point Diner. They celebrated their 25th anniversary in 1974, I think. The owners sold the place a few years after I moved to Virginia. It was some time in the early 80s and it's not been the same. We could always go to the diner after Tony Marts closed. DiOrios is still there, the Crab Trap restaurant, and Circle Liquor are still thriving. The circles are disappearing. They removed the one that connected Tilton Road to Black Horse Pike and they removed the one at the Shore Mall. Atlantic City High is now on the Black Horse pike going into Atlantic City. The Hamilton Mall is nice. Shore Mall has Boscov's to keep it alive, but it's not the same. For as much as the area has changed, there's still so much that remains the same and that's nice, isn't it?

    3. Lisa, You're right about the stuffing. I still make fresh bread stuffing with our turkey. I've never thought of trying a cornbread "dressing". My former mother-in-law grew up on a turkey farm in South Jersey and I learned from her. She also taught me about stewed tomatoes with macaroni and cheese. We are able to get Entemenn's here, but Tasty Cakes can be hard to come by. There's one grocery store here that sells Dietz and Watson hot dogs, too. I have to buy packaged sweet sausage which is sold as individual links instead of being able to get a chain of links. I love sausage, onions and peppers.
