    I wonder how many people realise that the Thousand Islands archipelago
    is actually a place. And straddles the border between Canada and USA.
    I discovered it when returning from covering a motor race in Quebec
    for
    Hoosier racing tire. Up to that point I had 'assumed' that the home of
    the famous dressing had something to do with Trader Vic's and the
    Pacific Ocean.

    No, I figured it was in the Pacific also! Looked it up, they are actually river islands. Never knew.

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Cat Litter Casserole
    Categories: Casseroles, Beef, Pork, Poultry
    Yield: 9 Servings

    1 c Bisquick
    1 c Shredded Cheddar
    1 lb Ground beef, turkey or pork
    Sausage

    MMMMM---------------------------LITTER--------------------------------
    2 c Long grain rice
    3 3/4 c Water
    2 ts Salt
    2 tb Butter

    MMMMM---------------------------TOOLS--------------------------------
    lg Mixing bowl
    Rectangular baking pan
    Deep saucepan with lid
    Fork
    Paper towels
    lg Spoon
    Stainless steel pooper
    - scooper

    To make dumps: Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC. Using clean
    hans, mix together the dump ingredients in a large bowl.
    Mold pieces of this mixture in various size/shape dumps.

    Place so they don't touch each other in an un-greased
    baking pan. Use two if they don't all fit. Bake the
    dumps for about 20 minutes or until they are all brown,
    firm and slightly crusty.

    While the meat cooks, put all four litter ingredients
    into a large saucepan. Then, heat on high until the
    water comes to a boil. Stir, turn heat to low and cover
    the pan. Simmer without lifting the cover for 14 minutes.

    Remove the saucepan from the stove and carefully (to
    avoid having your face melted away by the steam), lift
    off the cover. Break apart, or "fluff" the rice with a
    fork and set pan aside.

    When dumps are done, carefully transfer them onto paper
    towels to drain.

    Spoon the rice and dumps into the now empty baking pan,
    leaving some dumps partially uncovered, the way Kitty
    does when he/she is in a hurry.

    Serves 8-10 litter box lovers.

    Use pooper scooper to serve.
