From the Shovel For hundreds of years haggis was a way for a Scottish farmer or ―crofter‖ to use up the lights (lungs) of a sheep, together with the heart and liver—ingredients which will spoil quickly. Nothing in the highlands of Scotland could afford to be wasted, and this was especially true of food as starvation and malnutrition was common. The traditional recipe follows: 1 lamb’s paunch (stomach) Lights of a lamb (lungs, separated from windpipe) 1 lambs heart and 1 lambs liver 350G course oatmeal 350g beef suet, shredded 2 large onions, finely chopped 850ml of lamb or beef stock 2 tsp nutmeg, sea salt and ground pepper 1/2 tsp mace 2 tsp fresh parsley, fresh thyme and fresh sage chopped The day before: Soak paunch in water with 3 tbsp. salt added Cover lights and heart with cold water, add tbsp. salt and bring to a boil, simmer 45 minutes, drain and refridgerate. The day of: Turn paunch inside out and rinse for 10 minutes, drain. Shred beef suet, cut half of the liver into cubes and mince the remaining. Cut lights and heart very small and add to liver and suet mixture. Using a spoon put the filling into the paunch; sew with linen thread to close or thin butcher’s strong. Put Haggis in large pan of boiling water and simmer gently for 3 to 4 hours. Pierce with pin to release steam once or twice in first hour to prevent haggis from exploding. Serve with mashed swede.

Thank You again, Nora Jean Airplane ride…Stumpy and his wife Martha went to the State Fair every year. Every year Stumpy would say, "Martha, I'd like to ride in that there airplane." And every year Martha would say, "I know, Stumpy, but that airplane ride costs ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars." This one year Stumpy and Martha went to the fair and Stumpy said, "Martha, I'm 71 years old. If I don't ride that airplane this year I may never get another chance. " Martha replied, "Stumpy, that there airplane ride costs ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars." The pilot overheard them and said, "Folks, I'll make you a deal. I'll take you both up for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say one word, I won't charge you, but if you say one word it's ten dollars." Stumpy and Martha agreed and up they go. The pilot does all kinds of twists and turns, rolls and dives, but not a word is heard. He does all his tricks over again, but still not a word. They land and the pilot turns to Stumpy, "By golly, I did everything I could think of to get you to yell out, but you didn't." Stumpy replied, "Well, I was gonna say something when Martha fell out, but ten dollars is ten dollars." 11 No. 1 Issue 2 January 15th, 2014 MT HAZELTON APARTMENTS FOR RENT Bachelor, 1 or 2 Bedrooms Heat & Hot Water Included Call STEVE at 250-845-9104 or VERY PRIVATE 160 acres For Sale (110 acre woodlot) with SW exp., pristine yr round creek, BC Hydro, crown land 3 sides, easy acess on paved road 18 min E of Smithers. $489,000.
