I agree. But it was an efficient way to get a good Hawaiian Island overview. The ship was beautiful and clean. The crew were nice. Entertainment was excellent—even the free stuff.

But you have to be ever vigilent for gimmicks that cost you more money. Norwegian has a real racket going when it comes to beer, wine and liquor. They also make a pretty big mark up on island excursions you sign up through thru them.

I agree. We’re not big drinkers, and we didn’t do many excursions when we went to Alaska.

Also, beware of Bingo!!! Oh, yea and auctions.

Leave out the bacon grease, and this Yankee is right with you. I LOVE grits!

I knew I would eventually find something to like about you (ha ha, just a little joke there), seriously now if you like grits, have you ever used LEFTOVER grits as filler in meat loaf? Mix the cooked (and cold) grits into the ground beef, add an egg (as in most meat loaf), and whatever your favorite ingredients are, mold into a loaf shape, and bake.

It's a whole different meat loaf experience!

No way! I never would have considered grits in meat loaf, but I'm game.

I usually concoct a meatloaf with all sorts of things (including oatmeal), so if I replaced the oatmeal with grits, it could be delectable! :)

btw, the project we discussed is coming along. Mr OH went to work Monday and got many requests to have the presentation in printed form, so he's been working on it. He works long days, so he's got to do it in very little spare time, but he's excited to do it.

He should be done in a few days and then I've got to figure out how to get it with a sound track and post it.

Just thought you'd like to have a progress report!

It all sounds good, enjoy the meatloaf!

I will. Thanks. :)
