"Unitarian Universalists prefer buffet to catered," a UU was overheard
saying at coffee hour.

"What's wrong with catered food?" interupted another UU, catching only
the last part of the conversation.

"I was referring to theology."

The play is based on the book. It's a hoot. (Is that a Minnesota
phrase? "-) A nice section devoted to Dead Spreads, too. "-)
Note that the newspaper article mentions a pizza casserole. Here's my
recipe for one of those, from a church friend years ago:
* Exported from MasterCook Mac *

Pizza Casserole

Recipe By : posted to rec.food.cooking by Barb Schaller 2-13-2006
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Casseroles/Hotdishes

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 # ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 can pizza sauce -- (16 oz.)
1 can mushrooms -- (4 oz.) drained
1/2 # shredded mozzarella cheese
8 oz. frozen egg noodles (Reames brand) -- cooked and
drained

Brown together the meat and onions; set aside. Combine the pizza sauce,
mushrooms and half of the cheese. Put half the sauce mixture in the
bottom of a 1-1/2 quart casserole or a 9x13² pan, spread meat on top,
then top with noodles. Pour on remaining sauce mixture and top with
remaining cheese. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

NOTES : I¹d use fresh mushrooms rather than canned, and a goodly amount
of them too. Pretty darned tasty.

Barb, this sounds wonderful! I especially liked the 3rd site, with snippets
from the play. Vivian talking about her husband dying and how it didn't
have anything to do with her cooking made me laugh, as did the AFL-CIO
comment.

Thanks for sharing!

My mom used to make this when I was growing up, but we called it Pizza [censored].
(Clearly we're much less genteel than most folks!)

We had it so often when I was little, I was sick of it when I reached
adulthood. Then I made the mistake of making it for my husband and
step-daughter...and they love the stuff.

Those would be the nights I'd just eat a sandwich. <shudder>

Heh. Someone once tried to insult me saying I had a "smorgasbord"
approach to religion. I was like, hey - better that than a steady
bland diet shoved down your throat on a daily basis!

It wasn't really meant to be insulting. Here's one more you might like
better. Oddly enough, it works just as well if you substitute "Baptist"
for "Unitarian" (and how often does *that* happen?)

* * *

A man walks into the ladies department of Macy's, and shyly says to the
woman behind the counter "I'd like to buy a bra for my wife".

"What denomination are you interested in?" the clerk responded.

"Denomination?" asks the man, confused.

"Well" replies the clerk "Ladies undergarments come in many shapes,
sizes and colors, but there are really only three types: Catholic,
Salvation Army, and Unitarian."

"What's the difference between them?" asks the man.

The clerk replies, "It's really quite simple. The Catholic bra supports
the masses, the Salvation Army bra lifts up the fallen, and the
Unitarian makes mountains out of molehills."

I do . Tongue slightly in cheek, but I thought afterwards that I hadn't
worded the post very well.. It's amazing what they make plays about -
we've just been to see a musical called "The 25th Annual Putnam County
Spelling Bee" and it was really good fun.

Yes. I think I may become a communicant at St. Albert the Great (though
it sounds Catholic) or at at Faith-Lilac Way Lutheran. "-)
