While we're out of the Thanksgiving season, Meadow Heights Baptist Church in Collinsville puts on a FREE traditional Thanksgiving Day dinner (Turkey, Dressing, Cranberries, vegetables, desert, etc.) for anyone who wants to come in and eat. While the poor and homeless come to mind with free food, there are a number of people who are alone and would not otherwise have anyone with which to share a dinner.

Randi: I'm going to try this place...Well kept secret I hear.

Buffalo Park in Maryville Illinois is awesome! Hey Pertz, how about letting us know when you go we can do a family thing. That is if your brave enough to meet my 4 boys and 1 Big Baby?

Fish - Shrimp - and Frog legs:
St. Johns Evangelical United Church of Christ (314 892-0848) located at I-55 and South Lindbergh is hosting two friday night fish dinners this Lenten season. We "Jump" into our first dinner on "Leap Day", February 29th, by offering frog legs, as well as our past favorites of fried jack salmon, fried and baked cod and shrimp. All eat-in or carryout dinners are served with hush puppies, cole slaw, french fries or spaghetti, bread, home-made desserts and beverage. The complete meal is $8.00 for adults. The second dinner will be held on March 14th. Only two dinners are offered during Lent, we emphasize quality versus frequency. Dinners are served from 4-7pm. This year in addition to the meals we are offering items for silent auction. On February 29th, auction items will primarily be focused on fish or fishing items (rods & reels, lures, etc). The auction on March 14th will feature Easter baskets for auction. At both dinners, "bragging rights" tables will be set up for indivduals to "show off" photos of their fish catches. Come for dinner and enjoy the fun too! Mark your calendars February 29th and March 14th, 4-7pm.

The only fish I will eat is from St. Ferdinand Parish in Florissant. The fish fry there started in 1955 and has been going strong ever since. When they start frying it, you can smell it a couple blocks away. It's advertising that money can't buy! And HOMEMADE desserts - those Florissant ladies can bake!
