  1. It's snowing a lot here! Breakfast of today for Andy: Vin brulé, "paste di
    meliga" (polenta biscuits, very good).

    You probably already know we're gonna want recipes, right? :-)

    Ohhhh! I didn't know that!!! (I'm not saying the truth...😄DDD)
    Paste di meliga are a bit difficult to explain. It's a piedmontese recipe!
    You can't find it in other Italian regions. You can buy polenta biscuits,
    but they aren't so good as Paste di meliga. The confectioners who make them
    are jelous of their recipe. So I had to invent the recipe, remembering the
    taste. I will post ASAP.
    Perhaps I will make this week for you, if I have a little time.
    For what concerning Vin brulè, it's typical to drink it in the nothern Italy
    because it's cold.
    For this, you put in red wine a lot of spices (included chinnamon, cloves
    and juniper berries), then sugar or honey, boil just few minutes and then
    drink hot. It is very useful for cold desease!

    American lore for small children, Pandora: The snow is yellow because a
    dog peed on it. Hence, do not eat the yellow snow. (Eating snow is
    something that children are wont to do -- because they can.)

  15. One of my fondest memories of childhood is 'snow ice cream'. We lived
    very remotely and in an area with no electricity, paved roads, etc. but
    the air was clean! When it would snow my Mom would scoop off a bunch of
    clean snow, mix it with some vanilla, sugar, and maybe some milk to make
    snow ice cream. Wonderful stuff, at least in those days.

    I, too, remember that with great fondness Both my grandmothers and my mother
    would make snow ice cream when we were out in the country. They all used
    vanilla, sugar, and canned evaporated milk. That ice cream could be so cold
    that it could give you an instant headachel.

    I wouldn't eat yellow snow if it was cat pee, either. Maybe it's
    different there.
