Merry Holidays and Happy Whatever Your Celebration May Be from the
green lawns of Canada (well, southern Ontario).
Would anyone care to join me in the Lundy for a glass of TS?

Well, yes - typically we would have snow. But this year it seems to
have all headed west to Vancouver for the holidays.

Do pickled eggs go well with truffles? |

Make that a small Bear Restorer and you're on. I'm sure various
Moose will bring another load of chocolate truffles along too.

Thank you, but I think I'll stick to the non-pickled type. Mind you,
after a glass or two of TS, it might not be the truffles that were
pickled...

No.
Trust me on this. The Firedrake has perverse taste in some things, and
this is one of them.

Hey! I thought we had an agreement: I don't do chocolate-coated garlic
and you don't try pickling chocolate in vinegar (*or* brine, and
_especially_ not waterglass)?
Cadbury (miffed) Moose.
....but while you're running the bar, I'll have a large Bear Restorer
please, and the same for our trusty Postperson here.

Is it suppose to smoke like that, or have you been breathing on it?

Maybe I should order a wheelbarrow for later?
My round, would anyone like a refill?

That sounds like a splendid idea!
Got any of that fizzy grape juice left?

Isn't pickling a form of preserving? Why would
truffles (chocolate version) need to be preserved?
They do not last long enough to be preserved.
