A Year’s Supply of Spam! and Reuben in the Round

I try to make it a practice to clean out the spam from my email addresses each day, but sometimes it seems that it comes in faster than it goes out! I’ve tried several methods to eliminate receiving so much, but nothing seems to work permanently. At one point I created an email address entitled “getridof@” thinking I would just use it to log in to those sites that require an email before you order, etc. The only problem was that I keep forgetting to use it:( So, anyway today I thought that I might ought to check on it. Oh my goodness, this is what I found —

Check the number of messages in the Inbox — that’s right — 737 emails from my “nearest and dearest friends.” There’s one from Jane sharing her secret for losing 15 pounds by just drinking tea — think that sounds like too much effort. Instead, I’ll just order a box of Colon Cleanse or Acai Cleanse and let the pounds come off instantly overnight. I could actually cleanse and diet at the same time by ordering Colon Aid. It promises to take care of both problems at the same time. I’m going to need to lose those pounds because I’ll soon be featured in Google’s latest efforts to make me an instant business success. That’s why I need all of the extra credit cards that have been extended my way, too.l On second thought, I think I will just take up offer of The Right Revered His Most Highest Executor of the Nairobi Foreign Settlement Office to send him a personal check for $20,000 in order to release my long-lost relative’s gold and diamond assets that are currently being held in his beloved country. Surely, I want to honor my family heritage and do that! I can then take up Dan’s offer to learn “The Real Truth About Debt.” Or if I am so inclined, which I am, I can just hit the delete button and say adios to them all. I’m sure to hear from them again soon.

Just in case you happen to be a SPAM fan (the real kind in the can), I thought it might be interesting to check out their Recipe site. Currently, some of the top-rated recipes are:

  • Southwest SPAM ‘n Beans
  • SPAM enchiladas
  • SPAM Hawaiian Pizza
  • and the amazing, SPAM Waldorf Salad!

Did you know that SPAM now comes in 13 different varieties?? I had no idea that it was so versatile!

However, since I’m on the diet and colon cleansing kick, I think it best that I avoid SPAM in all forms and flavors.

I may, however, check out the SPAM Museum if I ever get the chance.

And, I suppose if I happened to be EXTRA, EXTRA hungry, I could always eat at the SPAM diner while there.

I JUST KNOW I’M GONNA’ HEAR ABOUT THIS!

I got this recipe from Martha Wise who was for many years the Executive Secretary for the National Association of Junior Auxiliaries.  She served it one time when I was at an Executive Board meeting in Greenville, Mississippi.  It is so easy to make and is quite filling.  Served with a green salad, it makes a complete meal.  While it doesn’t use spam, I think you will still enjoy it.
