All in the Family featured the curmudgeonly Archie Bunker. Archie was television’s most famous grouch, blunt, blustering, straightforward and untouched by the PC crowd. He was the archetype of the conservative male. Michael desprately tried to reeducate him, but he persisted in his breviloquence.



Looking back at the last 40 years, we realize: ARCHIE WAS RIGHT!

BJW - Russian Dressing

"You name it, we'll make it!" Was the big sign outside the new restaurant on 13th Avenue. "There is no food we can't make for you!"

"Excuse me sir," said a man with a heavy Russian accent to the waiter, "I vould like please, A Garden Salad with Russian dressing."

"RUSSIAN DRESSING?!" Screamed the head cook, "I'VE NEVER EVEN HEARD OF RUSSIAN DRESSING! WHAT ARE WE GOING TO GIVE THIS GUY?"

"Don't worry," said the owner to the cook, "I'll take care of everything, you just make the salad."

Two minutes later the waiter walked out with a big Garden Salad and a picture of a Russian man putting on his shirt.

      That's not a recipe for Russian dressing.

      Hey, now, Martha knows her stuff!

      Actually, it's almost identical to the Thousand Island recipe that I used as a cook in a family restaurant, back in the day. We didn't add the lemon juice, salt, or pepper, though.

      Russian has more tang to it. Horseradish or dakons is sometimes used.
