@walker, you asked a very thought provoking question.

The monthly Recipe Swap has been going on for ages now. Has its day come and gone?

What do you say, @momtochloe, @GenXmuse. @Zhills, @Little Tex, @RespectLife, @house_cat?, @Shihtzursqmom, @kate2357?

I'm sure I've forgotten other names. So sorry.

Hi, @RespectLife! I loved that you voted, & thus far, since you're the only person who actually cast one, I'd say you're the winner!  

(Though this is certainly not up to me.)

I also thank you for that impossible ham 'n cheese pie recipe. It sounds right up my alley! I posted ham as a next ingredient because I actually have some that I'd like to use is a different way, so a double TY to you. 

Plus, I am always a sucker for Gruyère!
