OMG!!! Does THIS ever bring back childhood memories!!
I opened an email today from CROWN PUBLISHING titled "A BRIEF HISTORY OF TUNA CASSEROLE" <----- (click on the orange type to read the article)
This brought back VIVID memories of 7th or 8th grade HOME ECONOMICS class at TE (Tredyffrin-Easttown) Junior High School in Berwyn, PA, when the teacher passed out a menu for TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE. We made it in class, I fell in LOVE with it and from that point on, I TORTURED my family with it as often as I was allowed to make it.
"TORTURED" you wonder??
I remember one night when my parents were going out and I was to babysit my two younger sisters - they both PLEADED with my mother - "PLEASE DON'T LET HER MAKE US TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE FOR DINNER!!!".
I'll have to ask them sometime whether or not they ever have a craving for it........

I love tuna noodle casserole! It's my comfort food. I remember friends bringing it to the house when my grandparents died. Topped with crushed potato chips.
ReplyDeleteA much better memory, Joan, than the recipe for brains and sweet breads we got in 7th grade at TE. ��
I entered my comments before reading the notes and recipe. It wasn't just for Midwest funerals. Too funny.
DeleteMarjie, I DO NOT remember brains and sweet breads at TE!!!!!! Either I missed that class OR I have mentally blocked it out!! Ewwwww....... xo
