A Fine Day

Hi Friend,
Well it warmed up to almost zero today, that was encouraging. I spent the day baking bread which I do twice a week these days. Some I barter with other loaves go to folks who need some good home cooking. I was presented a bag of moose ribs last night and turned it into moose rib soup which is to die for! I shared the soup with several cabins and there are a bunch of happy little faces in Nenana tonight that had a belly full. I boiled the ribs to make the broth and added a little beef base. Garlic and Onion, Carrots, potatoes and celery and a shot of soy. When the veggies are cooking I take the ribs out of the pot, spinkle them with a little salt and broil them a little in the oven till they get a little crisp to them, remove and cool a little and debone them chop up the meat and add it back to the soup. These particular ribs were lightly smoked with cottonwood and they were delicious. Good deeds done for the day, I feel good like my day was not wasted!
