how did the goose go? ours was very dark meat and pretty flaming chewy! tasty but chewy… i wonder if cooking it hot and fast rather than cool and slow would have been better

I am really enjoying the photo of the day – the Turkey Window shot is now my desktop wallpaper! Great show, looking forward to the new year.

Question/discussion suggestion – did you always garden? I have never cared much for it, but it sounds so great when you describe it that it makes me want to try it again.

Got your comment via my blog- obviously haven’t posted it :0) Don’t know why email isn’y getting through still – grr. Anyway, I shall be making some tablet this week, and I shall send some over. Mr India thought there might be a problem sending food, but I don’t think that customs willstop sweets (candy), will they? I’ve had sweets sent from the US without problems but reassured him that I would see what you guys think.

Looking forward to listening to the ‘cast as I finish the preparations for tomorrow. I’ll let you know when the message with your address comes through, in case it gets munched in my spam filter and no-one realises – don’t want that tablet going to waste (well, I suppose it’ll ‘go to waist’ anyway! Gee, I crack myself up sometimes…)
Ho ho ho

Hi,

Basswood is easy to spot by it’s distinctive shape. It’s the tree that looks like a big ice cream cone.

The wood is cherished by carvers for it’s fine grain and stability. If you have a wooden yard stick, it’s probably basswood.

Bonus: Harvest one basswood and get the next in a fraction of the time. The stump will sucker like mad. Choose one sucker to favor and it turns into a new tree quickly because the root system is already in place.

Hey. The bumper for the life section: I’ve captured it and tinkered around in audacity to try to puzzle out what the heck is being said. No joy. If I ever get onto “Wait wait don’t tell me” and win, I’ll have Carl Kasell to make you a new life bumper:)

Oooh the spice house. That should be on every Milwaukee tourism map. It’s worth the stop if all you do is walk in and take a deep breath. Mmmmmm..

Very nice ‘cast. You guys sounded downright comfortable compared to some of your early efforts. Talk to you next year.

Best,
Tom
