Hi Joan,

 RH> thru a "Publix" last Saturday, spotted a few things to go back for.  We

 JM>  My Mom absolutely loves the fresh bakery breads
 JM>  from Publix, though as you like to bake your own,


Sounds good; I love the smell of baking bread and when I walk into a
store & get hit with the aroma, I want to head over to the bakery and
check it out.

 JM>  that might not be an issue for you. I think their

We've been buying until the kitchen is a bit more set up.  Probably this
week end I'll have the bread maker out and running; we now have
everything for making bread.  In the meantime, we found a whole grain
one put out by (I think) Pepperidge Farms; it's downstairs & I'm
upstairs so can't check easily.  I also got one at the Fort Stewart
commissary on Saturday--a German bakery in Alabama now has a contract
with this commissary and I picked up a loaf of their farmer's bread.
Good and chewy, just as I remember.  As I was at the display, a man came
by and told me he used to order from their web site before the
commissary started carrying it; now he's glad he doesn't have to pay for
the shipping.

 JM>  regular prices verge on higher, but they do good
 JM>  mark-downs on stuff they want to "clearance".

I'll have to check them on a semi regular basis then--have to scout out
the nearest one.


 RH> also have "Kroger", "Food Lion" and "Piggly Wiggly" in town.

 JM>  I don't have a lot of experience with Piggly
 JM>  Wiggly, but when we stopped in one sometimes
 JM>  while travelling around, we always found tempting
 JM>  bargains. (I think Piggly Wiggly concentrates on
 JM>  serving smaller communities, not the large towns

We used to shop at the "Pig" quite often when we lived in NC; they used
to have a big old dancing pig on their tv ads.  They were all over
eastern NC 25 years ago.


 JM>  like Huntsville, AL.) Kroger is national, so OK
 JM>  but not notable for anything unique I can think of.

I'm not familiar with Kroger.

 JM>  I don't know Food Lion.

When Rachel & David lived in Charleston, there was a Food Lion just down
the road from them--more convenient than the commissary so we stopped in
a few times.  Found Everglade Seasoning there about 8 years ago--about
the time a number of recipes were posted on here that used it.  Found it
again at Fresh Market but didn't buy any the other day.

 JM>       Title: Classic Red Rice
 JM>  Categories: Grains, Meats, Typed
 JM>       Yield: 4 Servings


 JM>   Some call it "Charleston Red Rice," but this popular dish is eaten
 JM> up   and down and around the Atlantic coast, from Carolina to Georgia.
 JM>   Everybody has their own way of making REAL red rice so let's just
 JM>   call this one Classic Red Rice. It's delicious accompanied with hot
 JM>   corn bread.

During our first trip to Charleston, I came across this at one of the
local places and commented on it here on Fido.  Dale sent me a recipe he
had in his data base; I"ve made it a number of times with a few tweaks.
His calls for regular sausage; I use turkey with no problems in the
substitution; I also use brown rice and just let it cook a bit more.  I
had red rice at the one place we went to on the Ogeechee River a few
weeks ago; it was made with sausage rounds.  Now I've got to make some
again; it is good! (G)
