I enjoy reading but I rarely buy novels, that's why I have a library card... I've had a library card since I was three years old. Library cards are free and if the local library doesn't have a particular book they will get it for you and notify you when it's in. I have a collection of cookbooks but mostly How To and Historical, I don't need recipes. |

I see you've recovered completely from your Covid-19 infection and are now back to your original form, Bryan. I've berated you as sarcastically as possible several times, and all I ever got was labelled a 'wacky misfit'. Others here similarly get described as 'goofy', etc. John, at least, has committed the atrocious act of giving us a negative non-professional opinion of your mental health, and this from someone who admits to mental health issues of his own. So what did Julie do to you specifically to merit such personal animus? === Damn good question!!!! |

There is a library on Dataw called 'The Cannery'. Residents donate books and have been doing so for decades. I always have five or six books waiting to be read. And yes, I read very quickly. The type of books I read vary from historical to biographies to fiction and murder mysteries. I'm never bored. I sure as heck don't have to go online looking for some guy to make me feel complete. Julie comes across as terribly desperate. Jill |

Back about 30 years ago, I saw a winter coat in a surf shop that I absolutely fell in love with but it cost $160. I didn't buy it then but probably would have gone back to buy it. It was that cool. Luckily, a few days later I was shopping in Roses (a K-Mart type of store) and I found the exact same coat there for only $28. I bought it. Only difference was it didn't have a "Billabong" patch sewn on the pocket. I've still got it too! It's a bit worn out now so I don't wear it out for store shopping but I still use it for around the neighborhood or winter bike rides. |

Oysters are fine as they are. Any > tampering is a shame. Mussels are an inferior clam substitute, imo. They don't impress me. As for oysters, if you eat plenty, it's fun to try the many different recipes for them. I've tried them many ways. Same with blue crabs here. People that rarely get live crabs, tend to eat them steamed in restaurants. They are good that way. Eat crabs often though and then you can experiment with the many other dishes and discover equally good eats. Old story: One crab season (May - early September) I had found a "honey hole" always full of crabs. With 3-4 lines out, baited with chicken, and using a crab net, I easily caught 4 dozen in less than an hour. I brought them home and steamed them. Then we picked them. Each day, we ate our fill of steamed crabs and saved the rest - frozen in 1/2 pound bags. With a brand new baby, we stayed home more that summer, so this was a good thing to do. As soon as we picked them all, I'd go and catch another 4 dozen (or more). On and on. Anyway, at end of season, we had eaten our fill all summer plus had 28 pounds of crab meat in the freezer to last until the next spring. This is when we started trying the many crab recipes....crab cakes, crabbies, crab imperial and many others. All are so good. Moral of this story... You said, "Oysters are fine as they are. Any tampering is a shame." That's just not true. It's a very limited view. |

But I do admit to not seeing a single pie > at any store this year. It's an item that has gradually fallen out of favor I guess. In reading about Christmases of old, or seeing old food ads, mince pies were right up there with pumpkin as holiday far in the US. I had to special order mine from my local bakery...in fact last year was the first time I ever had eaten one (again ordered from my bakery) Kind of like suet pudding, are those still common in, say the UK I wonder... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suet_pudding "A suet pudding is a boiled, steamed or baked pudding made with wheat flour and suet (raw, hard fat of beef or mutton found around the kidneys), often with breadcrumb, dried fruits such as raisins, other preserved fruits, and spices. The British term pudding usually refers to a dessert or sweet course, but suet puddings may be savoury. Many variations are strongly associated with British cuisine. Recipes vary greatly and can be desserts or savoury courses. They are typically boiled or steamed, though some baked variations and recipes adapted for microwave ovens exist. Modern recipes may substitute butter or vegetable shortening for the eponymous suet. Examples include spotted dick, Christmas pudding, treacle pudding, clootie, jam roly-poly and many others. Savoury versions include rabbit, chicken, game and steak and kidney pudding..." -- Best Greg |

I adore the traditional heavy xmas fruit cake, especially with my style of almond icing. However, it's just too calorific!! I like the light fruit cakes too, especially Dundee cake, which I haven't had for many years. |

A lot of these dishes were poor people's food and were ideal in a time when people worked hard in appaling conditions. |

Yes, very dense in calories... I've been reading up about contemporary UK Holiday foods, and I was surprised to find that "pigs in blankets" are quite popular, who knew...!!!??? https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/pigs_in_blankets_63316 "Pigs in blankets are too delicious to be reserved for a one-off Christmas side dish - try them as a party snack or with roast chicken. They take no time to make and will be just how you like them. Ingredients 8 thin slices streaky bacon 16 chipolata sausages cocktail sticks, to secure the bacon Method Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Place the bacon on a chopping board, then using the side of the knife, stretch and flatten the bacon until about half as long again. Cut each strip of bacon in half across, then wrap each piece around a chipolata, securing with cocktail sticks. Place in a roasting tray and roast for 15 minutes until golden-brown and cooked through..." |
