Trophy Toast

This recipe is no prize. It is another one of those bizarre appetizer type things that make no sense and tastes even worse. Crumbled bacon mixed with cheddar cheese, butter, Dijon mustard, spread on a slice of crustless bread, rolled up and broiled. The recipe as Alice wrote it yielded 16 servings, I cut it down to three, which still may have been way too much.

Episode Note: "The Winner" Cindy brings home a trophy for being the best jack player at the playground. Everyone celebrates her stellar accomplishment, except for Bobby. He comes to the realization that he is the only  family member without a major award. Bobby has his Jan/Peter self-pity moment sulking while wearing a donkey mask (really). Mike and Carol encourage him to pick one thing he's good at and keep trying, assuring him that one day he will be a winner. But Bobby is easily angered every time he fails at a game around the house, throwing checkers and such when he loses. He finally finds his niche when he enters an ice cream eating contest on the Kartoon King (played by Mayberry's resident sot, Otis) TV show. A  golden scoop trophy and a year's supply of ice cream are on the line. Although he tries his best, it's just not good enough and Bobby loses, again. Leave it to the Brady's to save the day. He arrives home to a surprise party and a special trophy "just for trying" from his brothers and sisters. Bobby finally feels like a winner instead of a wiener, not realizing that quitters never win, and winners never lose.
