Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Good evening Rock, I hope you are feeling better!
Yes! The bruising is gone. I still have a small hematoma, but its absorbing slowly.
 
I like to serve stews like that too.
At the parish we attended before we moved down here we served clam chowder like that during Lent.

I love clam chowder! Dang, now I want some.
 
Good song, I've never heard The Clark's before
That’s probably my favorite, I love how they mention all our favorites. I think they are huge on the East coast. A friend who moved from New Jersey turned me on to them.
 
My wife isn’t home I’ll try to describe it the best I can. You hallow out a loaf of bread, save the bread and cut it into 1 inch pieces to use for dipping. The contents are cheese, onion, bacon and I’m not sure what else. I can get the recipe from my wife When she gets home. When you are out of bread for dipping you break off pieces from the bread bowl. Did I mention bacon?
Sounds delicious!
