adam has feelings?

Idea from that TV commercial with the pig at the football game.

Even used the same color blanket.

Pig in a blanket, like the one in the commercial, looks a lot more comfortable than a pig skin on the field.

When I was a child: in my family (Eastern European descent), ‘pigs in a blanket’ were rice and tomato sauce-stuffed cabbage leaves (boiled) – I think they were called ‘goumpki’ or something like that. I hated them. I was quite relieved when I found out that, in our new neighborhood after moving out of grandma’s house, ‘pigs in a blanket’ were hotdogs in a Pillsbury crescent roll. Hurrah!. Still hate EE PIAB to this day.

I LOVE “Goumpki” (or however it is spelled)……..especially as QuietStorm27 described them. Old Polish family recipe!

Those are the Pigs in a Blanket that I know! Go high end and use Bavarian smokies. Cabbage Rolls – Cabbage leaves (of course), rice, ground meat (sausage), tomato sauce. – Goes really well with perogies, borscht. And yummy!

Adam looks sick. How can he be – he never goes anywhere other than the coffee place.

Pigs in a blanket where I grew up was breakfast sausage wrapped in a pancake. Yum. (the versions presented above look good too)
