I've unfortunately missed out on pretty much any cultural inheritance. My Dad remembers his aunts making lefse and various other dishes, most of which I've never tasted...but it didn't really get passed down any further. His family was kind of broken, and I think that was likely a big part of it.

The grandmother I get most of my Scottish blood from is a geneology buff. I'd like to pump her for information one of these days. Only catch is that she's...um...wayyyyy on the other end of the political spectrum, wayyyy beyond Democrat (she thinks Communism just haven't been done quite *right* yet, for example), and outspokenly so a lot of the time. Fun.

That sounds just exhausting!

I forget, where do you work? I'll likely feel stupid for asking, but I have a short memory. ;-)

I live in CT, kind of a long haul for cutting firewood.

In college in Vermont, I had a weekend job cutting pulpwood for the papermills. Not quite like firewood operations. This is similar to the machine I used:

I would guess you're a guy who likes "more power". I love landscaping but I guess I just don't have the power!

I think most of the "heritage" foods you and I share are only passsed along as an evil rite of passage kind of thing or they would be served in restaurants. They can't even sell "real" haggis in the USA.

People don't need the power, we have amchines for that now.

Cute, quick story: yesterday, commg back from Chuck E. Cheese's with 75% of my daughters, we passed a commercial land clearing operation. They all cried out "Go back, daddy, lets's watch!"

I melted! They are mini versions of me, except they wear pretty dresses.

Yes... the delightful bouquet is eu de pepperoni! :) I would have brought some back but when I left they were running out of just about everything.... I decide it was better to skedaddle instead of being volunteered to become a pizza myself.... :)
