sausages!

did it have something to do with sausages?? i honestly can't remember what the hell was going through my head that seemed so important, because it's been quickly replaced by an intense craving for preserved meats and i'm now preparing a dinner which involves both sausage AND bacon. delicious. i blame the book i've been reading about civil war army diets. and yet i don't have a craving for hard tack. this tends to happen every year- winter comes and i want to read about the civil war, and as a result develop cravings for corn mush and salt pork creations. maybe it's a subconscious trick my body plays to get me to eat more fat for winter.

maybe i'll blab about my new job. i stack produce. i'm a produce stacker. one day i'll move on to ordering produce, but for now it's just stacking. the accountant on high came down today to give me my official clock-in number and i promptly lost it. so i had to sheepishly ask him to write it down again and he returned with four tiny post-it notes, all with my name and number on them, and said, "here you go, magna cum laude."

Try some skillygalee. Take the salt pork ration, fry it in your canteen half, then fry a water-soaked hardtack cracker in the grease. See also, hell-fire stew.

I cannot imagine what has happened to General Stewart.
