The tomato stuffed with tuna sounds pretty good! I had forgotten all about those little packets of Kool-aid with the cartoon of the smiling pitcher.

It's actually not bad and about as fancy as Albert gets but damn good. RFK recently crowed about taking out the Kool Aid man. "He died like a dog," he said. That may earn Kennedy a seat at Albert's table!

Wishing you and family a nice week end this Memorial Day Holiday, Pat. Thanks for giving us a 'taste of Albert's prison fare. I had to laugh when I saw the mustard used with the tuna, as I have only fairly recently been adding mustard to both tuna and salmon dishes, like macaroni salads. My best memory of Kool-ad was when we would freeze it and feed the ice cubes to our horses. My horse, Brownie was very fond of grape Kool ad. She would keep the cube on her tongue and slather it about as it melted, then nuzzle me for another! And I was a fan of mixing the lemon and grape flavors. In those days we had Kool-ad or Hawaiian Punch just about everyday. As far as I can tell, it didn't stunt my growth or have any other ill effects. :-)
