    I have a feeling my nine year old daughter is going to take this one from me! She likes it, too and said it reminded her of the show, "Reba", which she loves!

    Hello & happy New Year, friend! I would be happy to share with you my dad's venison salami recipe --- but we're presenting tweeking it. Each year, when we make it, we're never satisfied with it. It just doesn't taste like my dad's.

    So this year we went on-line and looked at some recipes, and they seem to be almost identical to my dad's, except for the curing salt. The internet recipes call for like 4 or 5 Tbsps of Morton Tender Quick Salt. My dad's handwritten, shaky old man recipe says 4 teaspoons. We're starting to think he made a mistake and it should be Tablespoons, not teaspoons.

    This last batch we decided tasted bland. Maybe that's why. It needs a lot more salt. Personally, I kind of liked the mild version. But we're going to make a new, improved batch as soon as we eat this last one and see how it tastes.

    Would you like the recipe now or wait and see how the revision is?

    If you have any killer recipes, I'd be interested. We make venison chili, stew, lasagna, goulash, backstraps country-fried, backstraps grilled.

    We live on 35 wooded acres, surrounded by hundreds of other wooded acres that are heavily hunted. (I always dread deer season! It's like a war-zone around here!) So venison is our beef, so to speak. This year, though, my husband started working for a neighboring farmer, who gave him half a beef for just the processing cost: 61 cents a pound! For all the beef we can eat. So we're not going to starve this winter! But I still prefer venison for the low-fat, organic quality of it.

    I just finished Alex and the Ironic Gentleman. Kind of reminded me of a cheerful Lemony Snicket, but something felt off about it. What did you think?

    My son is 12 yrs old, i only have 1 child. I don't cook, im not good in the kitchen :-) have you tried researching Filipino calderetta recipe in the net? When you say calderetta what meat do you use? here, it is usually goat's meat which is expensive.

    thanks! I hope you will enjoy your Christmas too! I love this season!

    Hi Teresa G ! Oh i am sorry you weren't able to receive it. I sent you a bookmark made of native stuff here, a letter opener made of wood and a set of coaster made of weeds.. it was nice.. Im sad they returned it. Im not confident if i will get it here. I love the texas bookmark! But my son loves it more, he is using it now, he reads a lot too. I hope you will get to visit Philippines in the future. I frequent Quezon City because that is where our Central Office is, i go there to attend meetings sveral times a year. It is 1 hr flight from Cebu (an island).
