Mephisto,
Re: Are you ready for Christmas?
Oh, no. Was I supposed to do something to get ready? Now I'm panicked. Oh, my goodness. What should I be doing? ;')
*** Re: I've never tasted cavier!
I have enjoyed beluga and osetra caviars a couple of times. They are quite wonderful, as well as being outrageously ostentatious. :)
When I lived in Alaska, I'd occasionally pull up a coho salmon with ripening eggs. I always found that they were delicious served in the manner of a good caviar, or in a more pedestrian dish such as in scrambled eggs.
The salmon "caviar" was exquisite when fresh. I could never understand why the American public never seemed to appreciate this delicacy, basically, as I understand it, either selling the salmon eggs off to the Japanese or else in the case of sport fishermen, simply discarding the eggs or using them as bait. To me, they were the best, most delicately delicious part of the catch.
Does that help explain why I have so much disdain for the average Bush voter? ;') |
