Loved your post! BOY am I jealous....all those years on the East coast

and I never made it to the big shindig. Now that I'm 3,000 miles away

and about to pop out a bebe, I don't know if I'll ever make it. Maybe

they'll be a West coast meeting someday as our " movement " gains

momentum.

I'm definitely looking forward to more of your (and others') thoughts

about the whole experience.

Yeah, I feel pretty stupid for not having gone before myself. But so

it goes. I hope to make it yearly from now on.

There were several parents with babies there, if that helps any, and

daycare was provided by the conference.

A bunch of things just came up, so I might not get to post my first

lecture report until tomorrow, but I hope everyone who went reports

on the lectures, because there were a bunch that I wish I'd been able

to see but couldn't.

Another amusing story about the conference -

I got a call from someone named on Sunday afternoon, looking for a

ride to the hotel on Monday from andria. I only knew *one*

from the lists, so I thought it was THIS , from THIS list, no one

else would have known who I was, right?

Anyway, I spent about 10 minutes confusing this poor woman, talking about

how " Oh, it must be YOUR " jessica's Italian Adventure " sausage in my fridge

at the moment, yes? " She finally got through to me that no, she wasn't

THAT , but blah de blah de blah that was really interesting. We

had a lovely conversation on the way to the hotel Monday morning, I got to

meet her mom, who's a customer, all in all, it was very lovely.

But I thought she was you.

Ha ha!!!! I REALLY need to post a pic, I guess. I'll post one of me

and my WAP baby after the birth and then you won't get confused!

Wow--YOU have some of my sausage in your fridge....did give it to

you, or did you make it from the recipe I found????

[Guest guest]

Great to hear all the funny stories and I'm eagerly awaiting more

details on the conference speakers! I really wish I could have made it.

With luck, next year I will make it and get to meet everybody (where

" everybody " is the tiny subset of Native Nutrition that actually makes

it to the national WAPF conference). Did make it back alive or did

he finally succumb to his all-potato diet?

Actually, I brought a leberwurst, 3 packages of polpettini and 3

packages of that Italian sausage we made to 's party as my

contribution. They went over pretty well if I do say so myself,

though I thought the leberwurst had lost almost all of its character

due to its long (Thursday to Sunday) defrosting.

brought it as part of his contribution to foodstuffs for the party he

thought was happening on Friday that I bailed on.

I bestirred myself enough to beg him to give me all his sausage anyway.

So to speak. There was a running joke about various exchanges that I'll

spare poor the embarrassment of detailing, but the end result was that

everyone was fed QUITE well from his contributions. You two have a talent

for spicing, truly.

YOUR sausage was really really good, but a little spicy for my personal

tastes - I don't take to red-pepper-type spiciness very well. The dumbest

thing on my part was to let the people that were cooking it up toss the

package in the trash - ya know, that lovely package that had the label with

the entire recipe on it - including changes to make for the next batch!

If I suck up enough, will you send me the recipe so I can make it again,

only without so much red pepper? It WAS really good, once I got past that

part.

My true heart, however, is forever devoted to 's own

pane-something-or-other - I stole a bit of it from all the guests and meant

to eat it for breakfast this morning. I shall fry it up for dinner

instead, and contemplate nirvana whilst I do it ...

.... Mr. Idol, that last line would also be a hint to send the recipe. Ya

promised, ya know. Nobody cares about the lecture notes - everyone on

this list is waiting with bated breath to hear that I finally have the

recipe, so that's what you should spend your time doing.

Once they hear that I have it, they can all sleep well at night - for the

knowing.

Polpettini, THAT'S it!!! Yummmmmmmmm.

As far as the leberwurst, I take full credit for screwing that up in the

cooking. I may have kept a constant temp (of which I am still amazed) -

but there was that leakage thing.

I guarantee you, any deficiencies in the leberwurst were either due

to sheer age or to too much time spent defrosting due to traveling

and whatnot. Your cooking technique was just fine. I guess it

could've been cooked a little more, even, but that had nothing to do

with the flavor.

Don't bash potatoes; they're low in dioxins. Actually I'm trying to

phase out eating in favor of cigarette smoking, which helps clean out

dioxins from the blood. Vegetarianism is *not* enough by itself.

Thanks for helping the cash flow! Actually when I got home I was

trying to figure out how to buy food. I got enough for two days,

hopefully a check or two I'm due from various places will come in...

at least I didn't drive home in a cardboard box. LOL.

So glad you enjoyed it! I really can't take credit for the sausage,

though, as has done tons of reading and experimenting and

actually bought all of the equipment. I just (used to *boo hoo*) show

up at his apartment and hack away at the fat, so to speak. My friends

and husband were always slightly amused (ok, alarmed) that I traveled

to Spanish Harlem to make *sausage* with some guy I met on the

*internet*....but what's not to trust about ? To make a long

story short, has the recipe with changes...I'm not nearly

organized enough to keep track of such things.

[Guest guest]

Hi y'all,

Yes - it was a wonderful event as usual and it was a pleasure to meet more

of you NN'ers this year. The sausages were exquisite , I still think of

them fondly! Wish I could've stayed further into the wee hours Sunday night

chatting with you all.... When did the rest of you go home - or pass out?

;-)

Cheers, Christapher

I think you're being a bit too modest. If you recall, we made two

different sausages that day, and the recipe you found (and yes, I

modified it somewhat, but not all that much) was the one which came

out well. The one I based on a recipe in a sausage book I own --

which smelled as good as anything could possibly smell before we got

to the stuffing stage -- was a dud because even though I cut the

liquid in half or maybe even by two thirds, I still trusted the book

too much and didn't cut it nearly enough, so all the flavor washed

right out with the excess liquid.

I'm glad, of course, to be considered trustworthy, but I can't help

but wonder whether this means women perceive me as one of those

harmless not-really-a-guy friend types. How alarming...

Ha. Well not being very rugged myself, I was just asked if I was gay

today. Maybe I should shave less often or something? I look much

less boyish with a beard.

I would have thought that as the resourceful vegetarian you are, you could

have simply stopped periodically to graze on whatever happened to be

growing by the side of the road, so as to also assist in the transition to

smokarian.

I don't know. Bearded doesn't seem to be in fashion whereas boyish

does. Perhaps I have the worst of both worlds, then -- bearded but

unthreatening. <g>

Maybe if you practiced your curmudgeonly-ness a little bit more - all the

best curmudgeons growl quite convincingly, I've heard.

I'm not sure that's the right kind of growl, though. In fact,

growling period is probably the wrong approach -- overtly threatening

rather than just the undercurrent of danger that and I

apparently lack. I sense a fertile topic for in-depth research... <g>

Perhaps if you learned to giggle fetchingly immediately after growling?

LOL!!!! In my book, " trustworthy " is a requirement for romantic

attachment. I don't think women (at least on this list) would

categorize you as " not-really-a-guy " --on the contrary: IIRC, some have

professed more than friendly feelings for you ; ) Wasn't it Deanna

who dubbed you the " List god " ? Or maybe it was . Whoever it

was, I got the sense that she meant " god " in the Greek, not the

Hebrew, sense IYKWIM. So put your fears aside.
