That sounds good too and fits right in with my Pennsylvania Deutsch ancestry. My Dad came from SW PA, Greensburg to be exact and of good Lutheran stock - one of eight children and the only one to attend and graduate college.

Dean, try and save a few slices for Dave. You may have already done this but after slicing, separate each slice with wax paper before freezing.

Glad to hear of your Pa German background. Many confuse Pa Dutch with those from Holland when it's actually those who came from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland who initially settled in Pa north of Phila, then migrated west.

Although my last name is Bishop, the name was shortened at the turn of the 19th century from Bishopberger/Bischofsberger. Through genealogy research, I've met 4th and 5th generation cousins who every year have a scrapplefest which has been written up in local newspapers. They were kind enough to invite me a few years ago to partake in a breakfast of scrapple. I guess my gastronomical taste got lost somewhere because I really don't care for scrapple. Go figure!
