 DD> snow storms.

 CB> being a brit i dont mind.
 CB> i miss the snow, NOT the cold that goes with it :D

One becomes acclimatised to it over time. I have spent over half my
life in Yellowknife and -30 F doesn't bother me a bit any more but
anything over 85 F just saps the energy right out of me. I no longer
wish to take winter vacations to places like Florida or California.
like I used to.

 CB> i'm not a fisherman (too boring for me)

I used to be when I was younger. It's not boring when they're biting!

I live on the shore of Great Slave Lake which has a commercial
fishery and these days I buy from some of the local fishermen. The
cold water species here are lake trout, whitefish, grayling, ling
cod, walleye and pike. There are no bass or catfish in this part of
the world. There are no local sheefish or char here either; they are
only found further north in the rivers flowing directly into the
Arctic Ocean.

 DD> Title: Campfire Trout

There's nothing finer than a shore lunch.

Random fall vegetable recipe, for beets this time...

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

      Title: Beet Mousse with Curried Chicken Salad
 Categories: Vegetables, Chicken, Curry, Condiments
      Yield: 4 Servings

      3 md Beets; Cooked in their skin
  2 1/2 c  Chicken broth
      2 pk Unflavored gelatin
      1 c  Unflavored yogurt
      2 tb Lemon or lime juice
      1 sm Grated onion
      1 tb Sugar
      1 tb Mustard
           Salt and pepper

  Peel and cube cooked beets. Place gelatin in a bowl with 6 T
  water, stir. Let stand 2 minutes and pour hot chicken stock
  stirring. Process together all the ingredients except gelatin.
  Correct seasoning. Add cooled gelatin and process just to blend.
  Pour into an oiled mold to set

  Sophisticated  Version: Save 1/3 of the beet mousse, before
  pouring it into the mold.  Once the mousse has set, remove some of
  the gelatin in the center , leaving sides and bottom intact, like
  walls. Replace the part that has been removed, with curried
  chicken salad to which 1/2 pkg gelatin has been added. Let set.
  Cover with the rest of the mousse. Let set. Serve on lettuce
  leaves.
