Hi everyone Time for a new game!

HOW TO PLAY THE GAME:

1. The first player of the month starts the game by posting their choice of recipe. At the end of the text, she or he types their name (so we can give credit where credit is due) and "the next ingredient: xxxx. (The x’s represent that person’s choice of any ingredient that can be included in a recipe.).

2. Throughout the game, the next poster in line must use the ingredient that the person ahead chose. If you can, highlight the ingredient and/or put it in capital letters anywhere that it is used throughout the recipe. That does make it easier for everyone to see how the game works. If you aren’t that familiar with your word processor, don’t sweat it. We are more interested in your ideas than your formatting skills.

3. Because of time or system delays, some duplicate posts occur to the same ingredient. The next poster generally responds to the first post for that ingredient.

In a saucepan over medium heat, cook the sugar, mustard and reserved 1/4 cup liquid until dissolved. Add vinegar and bring to boil; remove from heat and allow to cool. Pour over the beet slices and onions, toss and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours. Remove from refrigerator and serve at room temperature.
