Magical Evenings

Sung to the Standells's Love that Dirty Water

I'm gonna tell you a story
I'm gonna tell you about my team
I'm gonna tell you a big bad story, baby
Aww, it's all about my team the Sox

Yeah, down by the river
Down by the banks of the river Charles
That's where you'll find me
Along with believers, diehards, and idiots
Well I love that team
Oh, BoSox, you're my team (oh, you're the Number One team)
Frustrated fans (I mean we're frustrated)
Have to be in after 86 (oh, that's sick)
But I've been wishin' and a-hopin, oh
That just once those Yankees were knocked out
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, BoSox, you're my team (oh, yeah)

Because I love those dirty boys
Oh, oh, BoSox, you're my team (oh, yeah)

Well, I love that team (I love it, baby)
I love that dirty Damone (I love Baw-stun)
I love that gladiator Schilling (Have you heard about the end of the curse?)
I love that Pedro (Manny's the man, Manny's the man)
I love that mighty Ortiz (Owww!)
I love the Boston Red Sox (Yeah We're on Top!)

IMBB #9-Terrines "A terrine is noting more than a fancy meat loaf cooked in an earthenware or other ovenproof dish, chilled and served cold." so says Madeline Kamman in The Making of a Chef. Then why am I overwhelmed with the thought of taking this on? Doesn't it involve pate? She goes on, " a pate is a terrine mixture baked in pastry...a sasucisson is a terrine mixture shaped into a large sausage by stuffing it into a natural skin or a plastic cook-in bag; it is generally poached." Oh dear. And finally, 'a galantine is a very large cooked sausage, the forcemeat of which contains the meat of one or several birds or other meats. The skin of one of the birds is used as a container for the forcemeat." Bring it on home Madeline, "There is no beating around the bush: They are much work." So began my research for this IMBB with this round hosted by Derrick at An Obsession with Food. So if a terrine is just the cooking vessel there had to be in this day and age an introductory terrine recipe out there. I wouldn't have to skin a rabbit, a hare pluck a duck or pheasant. Thankfully no, but I did learn that a 3 pound rabbit yields 1 generous pound of meat. After sorting through dozens and dozens of simple terrine recipes I ended up with a mildly involved one, Chocolate Peanut Butter Terrine, uncovered at Godiva. One more hurdle to jump, the pan....

Why has ketchup stayed the same? If you missed the issue now off of the newstand you are lucky--this was one of the better articles. Digestible history, good stuff. Fish Tales The caviar world is in a state of unprecedented upheaval. Overfishing in the Caspian Sea, where 90% is harvested, is driving prices upward. Places such as Petrossian, the New York branch of the Paris-based caviar emporium , has begun offering American-grown caviar produced on farms in California. Recipe for Seared Wild Sturgeon with Caviar Beurre Blanc And coincidently the Moscow Times, reviews The Taste of Dreams, which "follows the author's path from restless girl to reckless adolescent to ambitious young journalist in the 1990s Russia. Caviar is one of the obsessions that lures her to Russia, and one of the disillusionments that sends her back home." The story she covers is the business of caviar from the battle for fishing rights to "communists' hellbent pollution of the sturgeon's spawning grounds, to the poaching of the post-Soviet era.
