But who wants a cooked pickle? ;-)


My ethnic Russian daughter-in-law, just arrived from Tatarstan, made a
Russian soup, into which she chopped several dill pickles.

Wonderful stuff!

Recipe? ;-) It's getting into soup/curry/stew weather here in the
frozen* north.

* Actually just cold nasty rain, but there was some snow earlier this
week.

Expect more nasty weather... it's heading your way. Here on Saturday
night... very windy, Sunday night plunged to about 25°F.

Got in the wife's car on Saturday and backed out into the street, and
commented, "Why is the AC blowing warm air?"

Wife replies, " I don't know, it did that for awhile yesterday, too."

I pushed the Ambient button on the dash... it was 65°F outside...
winter has arrived in Arizona ;-)

Ha. Well, there's a nice dry maple log in the fireplace, an ice-cold
Sapporo in one of my Royal Selangor double-wall frozen pewter
tankards, my VHDL code is working with minimal tweaking and all is
right with the world. ;-)

We burned a log in the fireplace last night also. It was sufficient
to keep the inside temperature above 68°F. Don't know yet if I'll
need to turn on the heat this year or not.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
