Dave:

Thanks for tracking down the source of the receipt !
Went to Lenny's in California, Md. for lunch last week & they had their
excellent stuffed ham sandwich as the "lunch special."
Tomorrow [Saturday, Nov. 11th] will be the dinner at Trinity Church, St.
Mary's Parish, St. Mary's City, featuring stuffed ham, along with fried
oysters & turkey.

Just one sad note re: the Lenny of Lenny's.
Lenny died last week. He was about 90 & was a native of Pennsylvania [of
Slavic background - Slovak, I think]. He had established the restaurant in
1952 w/ his mother-in-law. It is today run by his son. He received a nice
write-up in the "Enterprise."
