NAB, I think our rain might be headed your way. At least it is a fairly light rain. But very damp and cold. Brrr is right.

Shelby, you don't want to know how lutefisk is made. I saw it once on TV. GROSS!!!

Love the Viking playground toy!

 

[TwinkieMama]

Is the Twinkie smart?
Is it just ignoring us?
Maybe never know.

The Twinkie replies in haiku form:

Yes, I am witty
See my tag. Maybe. Sometimes.
Now you know. Love, Twink




Moo! I ran across that site whilst looking for my avatar.
As a somewhat Mad Scientist I heartily approved....
Seriously considering assigning some of those experiments to my students next semester.....

 

[TwinkieMama]

Hey Shelby!


What is the difference between a man-of-war and a lutefisk?

 

[Shelby5514]

I wonder how hard that is to make?

Your students would LOVE that! Not as overdone as Peep experiments!!!

Great response Haiku, too.

 

[TwinkieMama]

Yes my entire joke knowledge comes from either Veggie Tales or Laffy Taffy....

 

[Shelby5514]

Hey Shelby!


What is the difference between a man-of-war and a lutefisk?

I guess I would need to know what they are first before I could take a guess.

 

[TwinkieMama]

Q: What is the difference between a man-of-war and a lutefisk?








A: One is a jellyfish and the other is a fish jelly.

 

[NAB]

Shelby-- are thinking of making that for your next party. Don't waste it on your DH meeting though.

Moo-- I wont' give in to putting the heat on get. We have sweaters and have lots of blankets when we watch TV. Great family fun huddling together to stay warm.....

What is Lutefisk? From Wikipedia:

Lutefisk is made from air-dried whitefish (normally cod, but ling is also used), prepared with lye, in a sequence of particular treatments. The first treatment is to soak the stockfish in cold water for five to six days (changed daily). The saturated stockfish is then soaked in an unchanged solution of cold water and lye for an additional two days. The fish will swell during this soaking, regaining a size even bigger than the original (undried) fish, but the protein content paradoxically decreases by more than 50 percent, causing its famous jelly-like consistency. When this treatment is finished, the fish (saturated with lye) has a pH value of 11–12, and is therefore caustic. To make the fish edible, a final treatment of yet another four to six days (and nights) of soaking in cold water (also changed daily) is needed. Eventually, the lutefisk is ready to be cooked.

In Finland, the traditional reagent used is birch ash. It contains high amount of potassium carbonate and hydrocarbonate, giving the fish more mellow treatment than sodium hydroxide (lyestone). It is important not to incubate the fish too long in the lye, because saponification of the fish fats may occur, effectively rendering the fish fats into soap. The term for such spoiled fish in Finnish is saippuakala (soap fish).
