Product of the week - Triple Succotash

Succotash is an American dish and this one being a mixture of tomatoes, corn and butter beans. Really there is nothing to write about. I opened the can, heated the contents in the microwave and served the mixture. It tasted like a mixture of (canned) tomatoes, corn and butter beans. I assume there are more involved recipes for succotash but this one was pretty simple and pretty ordinary. Of course "Thufferin' Thuccotash" is the catchphrase of Sylvester the cat which Andrew tried to teach Lucy to say to no avail!

On a side note, the fridge is still broken. The GE repairman returned on Monday to say its last rites. After a lot of anxiety due to the fridge being 15 months old, and thus out of warranty, GE agreed to replace the fridge with just a $100 delivery charge. To downgrade to a different model that would fit in the space better would cost an additional $400! I don't understand and I don't care so long as we have an operational fridge. We need to wait another week for delivery so we are living out of a new bar fridge and a new deep freezer (total cost for both $350).
