I want to appologize for not having posted anything yesterday or earlier today.  My father had a turn for the worse yesterday and we had to call the family.  By a miricle today, he has come out of his coma, knows us and is still in critical condition, but is awake.  Thanks for all your prayers and calls, etc.  We can not thank each of you enough for your caring and love.

INTRODUCTION TO A NEW SPONSOR:
Bruce Foods would like to thank all CASI members for using our Mexene Chili products and hot sauces and introduce you to our fine line of Casa Fiesta Mexican Foods. We hand select and process our peppers, tomatoes, onions, and other vegetables within 24 hours of harvest. No one else does that. We never use artificial ingredients or preservatives. Casa Fiesta has nearly 100 different products to choose from with a variety of great tasting beans to add to your special chili recipe including Mexican Chili Beans, Pinto Beans, and Jalapeno Pinto Beans. From salsa to Mexican style rice, from taco shells to peppers, we have it all.

This year, we will launch our new Chipotle Beans, Baked Beans and Peruano Beans, so be on the lookout for these at your local grocery stores. If you are looking for just a side dish, we have a variety of refried beans as well. If you are unable to find our beans at your local grocery store, you can always purchase any Casa Fiesta items on our website which you can find a “chili link” to on this page. The chipotle and peruanos are not available yet, but we will keep you posted when they are. This will certainly be long before this year’s Terlingua event.

Thanks to all fine CASI members for your support of Bruce Foods products, and keep the chili coming!

WELCOME ABOARD CASA FIESTA MEXICIAN FOODS!

I know that it is Wednesday and I usually publish the SSo's for the weekend. I am running back to the hospital for a few minutes and to get my Mother. I will post them later tonight. Thanks for your patience.  Janice
