Bear's Anecdote - Years ago, Bear's mother sent Jodie and Bear a box of recipes. Here is one from the box.
This is a rather fun recipe. It is very easy, too. Everyone gets her or his own foil packet, and everyone gets to open it as if it were a present or some-such. And Bear is a railroad aficionado and has been almost forever. So, anything dealing with trains and hobos was of interest.
