   Two weeks ago, a reader was looking for a fluffly dumpling recipe. Here's   
   another suggestion for our reader:   
      
   "For the person who was trying to replicate her grandmother's dumplings, you   
   might suggest to her that she pick up a package of matzoh meal (readily   
   available this time of year) in the grocery store.  On the back of the box is   
   a recipe for those fluffy matzoh balls (dumplings).  Good luck" ...  Robbin,   
   Dayton, OH   
      
   Last week a reader asked for a good (vintage) recipe for Sloppy Joes.  We had   
   a number of responses, and hopefully one of these two recipes will bring back   
   memories for Jennie from CA.  Thank you to everyone who took the time to   
   submit their recipes!
