shrimp spread

ok, so even though i cannot really smell anything, nor taste anything, i have made myself sick eating my mother's shrimp spread on party rye bread........our refrigerator is still packed with much goodness......celeriac salad......pickled red cabbage.......honeybaked ham...........i can pass on the cookies and such that have been sent by or brought down the street, but shrimp spread really hits the spot...my dad once called it musty, as in 'i must have some more'.........trust me, it's flavor is not enhanced by a $6.99 bottle of sauvingnon blanc.............i have a pineapple kuchen in the oven.....it is a traditional breakfast pastry in our family...........and it is going on 9:00 at night....but i do not feel well, and the dough has been rising all day so i finally had to rise to the occassion and roll it out and bake it...........my grandmother would roll over in her grave to know that i left that dough in a bowl in the refrigerator all day........
