    If he has Irish heritage you might consider getting him a book on the region where his family comes from or if not known getting him a subscription to ancestary.com.

  • What bar featured a full-sized painting of the classic Burt Reynold's Playgirl centerfold inside the ladies room?

    There was a bar in Milwaukee that had the Bert Reynolds poster in the ladies room. If I remember right, if you pulled back the fabric covering his hoo-haw, a buzzer would ring and a light would flash in bar area. The bar was called the Safe House and had all sorts of spy themed stuff. Not sure if it's still around though.

    Thanks for letting me know about this group. I don't work downtown, but sometimes have a flexible schedule, so might be able to make it in September.

    I've made this dish several times and it always gets raves at potlucks. It's fairly quick to make.

    Serves 6

    1 lb. sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into ½-inch cubes
    1 cup frozen corn
    ¼ cup unsalted hulled pumpkin seeds or pepitas
    1 medium red apple, diced (1 cup)

    ¼ cup chopped cilantro
    ¼ cup lime juice
    2 Tbs. olive oil

    1. Place sweet potatoes in large saucepan, and cover with water. Bring to a boil, and cook 3 minutes. Add corn, and cook 1 to 2 minutes more, or until potatoes are tender. Drain in colander and rinse under cold water to cool. Drain well.

    2. Toast pumpkin seeds in dry skillet over medium-high heat 3 to 4 minutes, or until seeds begin to pop. Transfer to plate, and cool.
