Had tamales with my riding partner and his family. Four kinds - chicken,
pork, cheese and sweet (with cranberries), now off to the movies!
Tomorrow is my second annual New Year's Mexican chow down with about 30
other people.

Football?

You gotta be kidding - although our traditional mountain bike ride has
been called because of rain (mud).

We'll do what we can. It's two hours to midnight here in Seattle, and
my inner clock isn't sure which coast I'm on. SO's got his good luck
herring in the fridge. I may top my pumpernickel with cheese instead.

Happy 2005 to all!

Thanks, Nancy - and a Happy New Year to you and all the RFCers. Geez, I'm

We had a great night, lots of food (another deep fried turkey
success) and friends and cards and fireworks. Hope everyone had
a good, safe night and that 2005 treats you all well... :)

Tell me about it. I was in Ohio for Christmas (great kielbasa at my aunt's
house!), and back in Seattle by New Years Eve. So tired that I was in bed
asleep by 9:30!

I did snack on some herring --- on Trisquits (sp?) before bed. Mmm, mmm,
good :)

Right back atcha! And to all at RFC, from me.

Does this mean that consumption of herring on New Year's Eve for good
luck isn't a cockamamie scheme the SO cooked up with a friend of his to
consume mass quantities of it to gross me out???

LOL. There was a time when I was a much pickier eater than I am now, but my wife
introduced me to a number of things, usually ordered in a restaurant and offered
as a taste. Pickled herring was one of those. I tried it and found it
interesting. It was one of those things that just got better and better every
time I tired it. One of my favorite taste combinations now is pickled herring in
sour cream and onion, washed down with a beer. One of the best (or worst?) things
about it is that you can taste it for three days after you eat it.

While vacationing in Denmark a few years ago we went to a buffet dinner where
there were about a half dozen different herring dishes. Every one of them was
delicious.

[The SO responds]

I've liked pickled herring since I was a child (with or without the
cream sauce), so it did not take much to convince me to adopt it as a
New Year's Eve tradition. One of my friends claims that it is a
Scandinavian superstition. If you have a piece of herring in your mouth
at the stroke of midnight, you will have good luck for the coming year.

Unfortunately, the herring we get in the US is usually not very good.
Soggy and mealy stuff. When I visit my relatives in the Netherlands, I
get as much as I can of the wonderful herring that they are famous for.

I can appreciate that. I also became a big fan of smoked eel after being
introduced to it in Denmark. The smoked eel I can buy here in Canada is
pretty good, but it is pathetic compared to the smoked eel I had over there.

Of course it's not. That's just an amusing side-effect.
