    Honest typos can be amusing. Here's a Beatnik Breakfast recipe for
    your amusement. Designed to taste like coffee and cigarettes.

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Beatnik Breakfast
    Categories: Alcohol, Beverages
    Yield: 1 Drink

    1 Vanilla bean
    8 Whole allspice berries
    20 Whole cloves
    2/3 c Dark roasted coffee beans
    - (317 ml);
    - ground for espresso
    2 c Vodka (475 ml)
    2 c Sugar (400 ml)
    2 c Water (475 ml)

    This was Zabet's dream way back when, but she didn't have time &
    energy to make it, so I did. It's meant to taste like coffee and
    cigarettes and it does--but in a good way.

    Equipment:

    * 1 qt Jar (1 L); with a tight-fitting lid.
    * Mortar and pestle.
    * Either a fine mesh strainer, some cheesecloth, or just a funnel
    with a coffee filter in it.

    Put the cloves and allspice in your mortar and give them some good
    whacks with the pestle. Don't bother grinding them fine, just break
    them up some to help release the flavors. Cut the vanilla bean in
    half along its long edge to expose its inner goodness to the vodka.
    You may also want to cut it into shorter pieces so that it is
    entirely submerged.

    Put the vanilla bean, allspice, cloves, and coffee grounds in a clean
    jar and add the vodka. Seal up the jar and put it in the closet. Mark
    your calendar so you know when you started. Better yet, write the
    date on the jar!

    Every day or two, open the closet and give the jar a good shake.

    After 2 months, strain the tarry brown liquid into another container.
    Rinse out the jar to get any remaining solids out, then put your
    liquid back in.

    Now make the simple syrup. Stir the water and sugar together in a pot
    over medium heat, until the mixture comes to a boil. Turn the heat
    down to a simmer and continue to cook and stir the syrup for a minute
    or two, just long enough to make sure the sugar is all dissolved.
    Remove the syrup from the heat, and let it cool to room temperature.

    When the syrup is cooled, add it to the coffee-vodka liquid to taste.
    I like a 1:1 ratio but many people prefer it less sweet, so try
    adding only 1/4 c (119 ml) of syrup at a time.

    Notes:

    I used a 1 qt mason jar that had markings on the side, which made
    measurements a snap. It also made adding the simple syrup in a 1:1
    ratio easier, because 2 cups of coffee cordial plus 2 cups of simple
    syrup equals a quart of liquid.

    If at any point it starts looking moldy, dump it out and try again,
    and this time make sure everything is clean when you start!

    Serving suggestion:

    I like it best mixed with milk, on the rocks, like the Dude.

    Title: Beet Leaf Holopchi or Beetniks
    Categories: Breads, Greens, Dairy, Snacks
    Yield: 12 servings

    24 lg Beet leaves; wiped clean.
    1 lb Bread dough
    2 tb Butter
    1/2 Onion; fine chopped
    1 cl Garlic; minced
    1 c Cream
    1 Handful of fresh dill

    Pinch off a small nub of dough and roll it in your hands
    into an elongated shape. Place the dough on a beet leaf
    and roll the leaf around it(leaving the ends unwrapped).

    Place each roll into a buttered baking dish. Cover the
    dish with a clean kitchen towel and let the bread rise
    for an hour or so.

    Heat oven to 350┬║F/175┬║C. Bake the Beetniks for 20
    minutes.

    Meanwhile, make the cream sauce: Melt the buttter in a
    saucepan, saute onions and garlic until soft, stir in
    the cream and fresh chopped dill. Bring to a bubbling
    simmer.

    Remove beetniks from the oven. Pour the cream sauce
    evenly over top. Return to oven for 10 min.

    Ready to serve.

    I've been reading about flappers, beatniks, and other counterculture
    people. Most of them were youth culture and a common theme seems to
    be liberation. From my perspective that liberation was relative and incremental.

    A couple of weeks ago i found a bunch of "wild" pear trees. I think
    their ancestor was a Bartlett. The offspring seem able to compete &
    spread. The pears were scarcely larger than crab apples. I grabbed
    a grocery bag full of them, and the trees are loaded with fruit so i
    could grab many more. I wasn't sure how they'd turn out. Last week
    i processed the riper half of the pears. I quartered and cored them
    and filled a crockpot. I didn't bother to peel them because they're
    so small, but halfway through i used a potato ricer to mash them up.
    I sprinkled in a little nutmeg. As it cooked, the whole house smelt
    magical. It yielded a quart and a half, which i have been using for
    pancake topping and to doctor up porridge.

    Once i heard someone say wacky weed is the only honest drug, because
    it's the only drug that doesn't steal anything from you after using.
    Of course YMMV. Here's a 420 friendly pear butter recipe. ;)

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Pear Butter
    Categories: Crockpot, Sauce
    Yield: 14 Servings

    5 lb Bartlett pears
    3/4 c Brown sugar (optional)
    1 tb Ground cinnamon
    1/4 ts Ground nutmeg
    1 lg Orange peel strip
    - (optional)

    Preparation time: 20 minutes
    Cooking time: 420 minutes

    This slow cooker (or crockpot) recipe for homemade pear butter is
    made with ripe Bartlett pears with their skin left on, cinnamon,
    nutmeg, and brown sugar! The slow-cooked pear butter is thick,
    spreadable, and bursting with fruit flavor. Enjoy the condiment as a
    spread on toast or as a topping for pancakes!

    Wash, core, and slice the pears. Do not peel the pears but do remove
    any weird brown spots or blemishes.

    Place the prepared pears into the slow cooker. Add the brown sugar,
    ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss to coat. Add the orange peel onto
    the top of the pears.

    Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 6 hours. You'll know it is
    done when everything mushes up well when you test it with a fork or
    masher.

    Remove the orange peel and puree the pears with an immersion blender
    or transfer the pears to a blender and puree well. The immersion
    blender will make it more chunky. While you are working on blending
    the pear butter, make sure the slow cooker remains on high
    temperature and keep the lid on it to maintain the heat.

    Give your blended pear butter a little taste and add more sugar if
    you'd like it to be more sweet. Return the pureed pear butter to the
    slow cooker and continue to cook for one hour on high with the lid
    off.

    Place the pear butter into clean jars and seal with lids. Refrigerate
    till cooled.

    Serve on bread, toast, crackers, muffins, pancakes, or as a fruit
    dip. This will keep, tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 1
    week. It freezes well. Just leave a little "head space" for expanding
    when it freezes.

    Title: Raisin-Pear Strudel
    Categories: Pastry, Fruits, Desserts, Citrus, Dairy
    Yield: 8 Servings

    1 1/2 lb (3 md) pears; peeled, diced
    1/2 c Golden raisins (sultanas) *
    1/2 c Pecans; chopped (opt)
    3 tb Sugar
    1 1/2 ts Lemon juice
    3/4 ts Ground cinnamon
    1/8 ts Ground cloves
    1/8 ts Salt
    1/3 lb Phyllo dough; thawed
    6 tb Butter; melted
    1/4 c Crushed Italian macaroons
    - (amaretti)
    Confectioner's sugar
    1/2 c Heavy cream; whipped

    About 2 hours before serving: Peel and dice pears. In a
    large bowl, toss pears with raisins, nuts (option) sugar,
    lemon juice, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.

    Brush each phyllo sheet with melted butter (keep remaining
    sheets under damp towel until ready to use). On waxed
    paper arrange 1 sheet of phyllo in an 18" x 14" rectangle
    (trim or overlap to make it this size). Lay another phyllo
    sheet on top, continuing to brush each sheet with melted
    butter and on every other sheet sprinkling the crushed
    amaretti.

    Preheat oven to 375ºF/190ºC.

    Cut layered phyllo lengthwise in half, then cut each half
    crosswise into 4 pieces to make 8 rectangles in all (use
    ruler if desired to cut them even). Starting along a short
    side of one rectangle, spoon 1/8 of the pear mixture side,
    roll phyllo, jelly-roll fashion. Place roll, seam side
    down, on large, ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat until all
    rectangles and the pear mixture are used.

    Brush rolls with remaining melted butter. Bake rolls 25 to
    30 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm or cool on a
    wire rack to serve later.

    To serve, sprinkle with some confectioners' sugar and top
    with whipped cream.

    Serving Size: 8

    * UDD Note: Soaking the raisins in a reasonable brandy
    overnight adds a nice extra layer of flavour. This
    highly optional step will depend on your tastes, the
    availability of the brandy, and whether you think of
    it in time.

    Crabapples around this area vary from marble-sized to as big as a golf/ ping-pong ball. The marble-sized ones are best as the goof ball size have been "market bred" and have little flavour.

    These pears are roughly golf ball sized.

    All I lose is my lunch (projectile vomiting) and I aquire a migrane. The stuff grows wild around here since hemp was raised for making rope in this part of Illinois during WWII.

    I know of another guy who has the same reaction. I also know a gal who gets migraines. I suspect the migraines are related to the sudden shifts in
    blood pressure. Recent studies show a sharply increased risk of heart
    attacks just a few hours after consuming weed, regardless of age or gender.

    Title: Pear Butter

    Sort of an apple butter - but with pears.

    Exactly. I made another batch yesterday with good results.

    I'm thinking of trying my hand at making a crockpot hybrid between a
    quiche and tamale pie with butter beans. So far as i can tell that's
    uncharted territory.

    1 Whole nutmeg
    4 Sticks of cinnamon
    1 ts Coriander
    1 c Stone dates
    1 c Dried figs
    1 c Shelled almonds and peanuts
    1 c Granulated sugar
    1/2 c Butter
    1 Handful of cannibis sativa

    Pulverise the first four ingredients in a mortar.

    Chop the fruits and nuts and mix them together. A
    bunch of cannibis sativa can be pulverized. This
    along with the spices should be dusted over the
    mixed fruit and nuts, and kneaded together.

    About a cup of sugar dissolved in a big pat (1/2 c)
    of butter. All rolled into a cake and cut into pieces
    or made into balls about the size of a walnut.

    It should be eaten with care. Two pieces are quite
    sufficient. Obtaining the cannibis may present certain
    difficulties. It should be picked and dried as soon
    as it has gone to seed and while the plant is still
    green.

    "God is good and man is not;
    Man made whiskey and God made pot."

    I do have lots of Crock Pot recipes...

    Cooking and poetry, nice combination...

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Boxty (Potato Griddle Cakes) (Irish)
    Categories: Irish, Vegetables
    Yield: 8 Servings

    1/2 lb Raw potato
    1/2 lb Mashed potato
    1/2 lb Plain flour
    1 x Milk
    1 ea Egg
    1 x Salt and pepper

    Grate raw potatoes and mix with the cooked mashed potatoes. Add salt,
    pepper and flour. Beat egg and add to mixture with just enough milk
    to make a batter that will drop from a spoon. Drop by tablespoonfuls
    onto a hot griddle or frying pan. Cook over a moderate heat for 3-4
    minutes on each side. Serve with a tart apple sauce: or as part of
    an Ulster Fry, with fried bacon, fried sausage, fried eggs, fried
    black pudding, fried bread, fried soda bread.

    An old poem says:

    Boxty on the griddle,
    boxty in the pan,
    if you can't make boxty,
    you'll never get a man.

    (The accuracy of the poem is uncertain.)
