Mark, I think you're telling us your elder Sis was
an evil troll who was setting up your early death
so as not to split the inheritance. <G>

Do you have heart problems? If not, you are
a fortunate survivor of some good food. This
high fat stuff is typical of where the weather
gets *really* cold. If your family ate these foods,
they are like my forbears. The ones who couldn't
survive died off. You then have good ancestors.
Your diet should consist of Herrings, Salami sam-
miches, slathered in butter, lots of sour cream,
and so on.

I think you know the drill. Is your heritage Scandi?
If so, I hope you enjoy those old dishes, except
maybe for Ludefisk.

Alex who has to draw the line somewhere.....
