Don't dem pilipine guyz hang dea paka? In W. Va., whea my tutukane wen grow paka for kala, he have one barn wit tin roof, but da walls, they got pukas between da logs so aya can sirkoolate. In late summahtime, you hang da paka fo 2-3 months. Den you strip da paka. Dat mean you pull da haff leafs off da middo rib den huli dem roun an poke dem tru da middo with da shahp end da paka stalk. Den you hang em in da bahn for nudda while til spring time sunshine comes. Den you sell da paka.
My dear, departed, saiintly moddah, she usta roll seegahs in Huntington, W.Va. when she wen graduate high skoo. I remembah she said one guy get his fingah chop off and it get rolled up in some poor sap's seegah. Good reason fo not smokin, yeah? I bet dat one hauna.
Actually, the smell of a seegah go make my tummy hulihuli. Maybe curing get rid da ammonia smell but no get rid da kukae smell.
Dis one paka barn befo paka have been stripped. Kinda like taking middo rib outta ti leaf.

Tell Fait Yanagi you love her, yeah?
In Cleveland today is now starting to get lilabit sun at 2:20 in the p.m. Was cloudy and rainy all morning, and got cooler, so that air cond. did not even kick on yet. This is a pretty good time of the year in Ohio. Before it gets too hot and droughts come. Everything is green, flowers are blooming nicely, everyone has hanging baskets of flowers on their porches, birdies got a nest outside the bathroom window with a baby in it. And best of all -- it is strawberry season! Ain't nothing like strawberries picked fresh and ripe. I bought three quarts yesterday and just might go back and buy a whole flat and freeze them for later in the year. Around here, the most common type are the June bearing varieties. Also, soon, should be cherry season. Last year cherries were between $5-$7 per lb. Hope price is better this year. And then, maybe a month-6 weeks from now, fresh local corn! Even Bobby Ingano said Ohio corn is the best. And then tomatoes! Woo-hoo. Store bought tomatoes are an abomination, plus now people are getting salmonella from tomatoes. More better to grow your own then you know where they came from and what they have been treated with.
Hey - and to all you faddahs out there - Happy Faddah's Day! You guys, when you made us gals into mamas, you gave us some of the happiest times of our lives. Some of the most exasperating, too. And if any of you have not yet raised teenage children, you just wait. Just you wait.
How many of you guys are the soft touch for your kids and mama is the disciplinarian? Or are you the "Wait til your father gets home" kinda guys? |

Menpachi - I know da Fait Yanagi mele. I also posted a while back a link to a you tube video of Andy Bumatai singing the song. It was hilarious. If anybody wants, send me e-mail and I'll send you the link or just go on You Tube and look for Andy Bumatai, but I no remembah which show.
I used to eat ground hog in the olden days. Dad would trap them (which was horribly cruel) or we kids would make a deadfall out of a rock, a stick, some string and an apple. We'd wait for the ground hog to come and when his head was under the rock getting the apple, we would jerk the string tied to the stick, the propped up rock would fall and smash the ground hog's head. I cannot believe I ever did such a dastardly thing. The way they would cook the ground hog was to stew it, usually long, slow cooking with plenty gravy. I think they soaked it in salt water for a goodly while first. Rabbit and squirrel are both good. Rabbit, cannot shoot until frost because get warbles, some weird worms or something that get in da meet and can then get in your body. Icky. I do not know anyone who ever got warbles, but we were always warned about them. I have no idea what they really are r what they look like. Squirrels, takes a mess of them to cook and get any kine meat. They are tough little buggahs, too. More moist, slow cooking required. Also fo kill da smell on game kine, you must, must, must remove the white membrane that covers each muscle. That's what gives the gamey taste. And always soak in salt water before cooking. I have eaten frog legs, even cooked them at home, but it grosses me out when the legs move when you fry them. Its pretty creepy.
Kory sounds like you guys just have good fun! I liked seeing you Oddah Guyz on the You Tube. Especially like Retro singing about ssssh - no make noise. It is only fittin' that he sing a Momi song! He has his own lei Momi.
And Glenn -- I've been telling Jesse that he needs to make a CD, like every time I find one of his vids on you tube. You are absolutely right his singing has mana. That's what I've been saying.
Jesse - look, Brah, your public is clamoring!
Glenn -- can call on the phone and can jam wit Paul. Or get zoom H2 and you guys can e-mail music back and forth. He wants folks for kani with also, since he had such a great time with Duke and Jay and all the stray kids he picked up all over Waikiki. He also plays along with you tube stuff sometimes.
But for sure if you got horses, ground hogs are bad. Dem horsies going to break their dinky skinny little legs. |

Gee, Glenn - I love it when you talk hillbilly pidgin.
Do not shoot a rabbit or squirrel or groundhog with a shotgun. You'll be picking shot out of your dinner for hours.
I think a .22 would be best. Don't want the buggah to explode into thin air. One of the deers Paul got one year, he had the hide tanned. The hole in the skin where he shot it looks like he shot it with a howitzer. I think he used either a slug in his shotgun or maybe used his .50 cal black power rifle. Anyhow, whatever it was, the poor deer had no chance.
I small kid time, I used to eat all the game. In W. Va., sometimes if you wanted meat, that was the only way. Small kid time, Inever thought anything of it. Nowadays, I could not even stomach the thought of eating those poor little critters, all cute and fluffy and schmoofy.
Frogs I do not want because I remember pithing frogs in college biology class. And we also had to dissect fetal pigs. Then I went dining hall for lunch and they had pork chops. Almost barfed. Turned vegetarian for a time. At Kent State maybe shoulda protested using critters in bio lab instead of burning down the ROTC building. |

Small kid time only meat we wen get was wha we wen catch, too. Plenny deah, plenny jackrabbit- an plenny wha my local frens call "slow elk" but we wen call "white man's deer", but onleh wen nomoa fo eat. Nebbah boddah wi license, season, an stuff lidat- white man's rules no count fo hungry indian. But we wen use da .22 fo hunt cause mo quiet. But mo easy was jus check da make one on da side of da road- if da buggah still warm, into da trunk. I tink get biggah trunk back den.
My uncle, he like help um along a liddle bit- he wen put one madrone bumpah on da van, den go out dusk time when get plenny deah on da road an run um ovah. Nuddah ting we wen do when stay in da desert- we go out dusk time, scare da jackrabbit so da buggah jump into da fence, break da neck. Den trow um into one gallon jar wid da potato an onion, seasoning lidat. Den put da jar in da hot spring- byembye, couple hoahs da buggah stay tendah and so ono...
