I'm making a batch of Polish Beet Soup today. I double the recipe because Mrs. M's sisters always want a couple bowls of it. It takes me about ˝ an hour just to peel and julienne the beets and my hands will be stained red for a day or so.

I'm told it fortifies the blood to withstand the snowy, frigid weather we're having here.

Mmm Mmm Good! - to steal a line from a famous soup company.

One last word of farewell, Dear Master and Mistress.


Whenever you visit my grave,

say to yourselves with regret

but also with happiness in your hearts

at the remembrance of my long happy life with you:


"Here lies one who loved us and whom we loved."


No matter how deep my sleep I shall hear you,

and not all the power of death

can keep my spirit

from wagging a grateful tail.
