In this episode:

There is no point in having a "Usual gang of idiots" (apologies to the appropriate parties) unless we
allow one or more of them to prove that they truly belong to the gang. This week we are permitting
one of the other trusties in the asylum to put together an issue, thus proving that the usual idiot
who does it is not as unusual as this one.

A big pot of soup with loads of lovely things in it!

Ma's Hand-Me-Down Bratwurst Soup (recipe) by Subcom. Deidzoeb

They say that cooking is "chemistry you eat". In this case,
it may be "gambling that you'll live". Yet, in this day of safe this and safety that,
it is well to remember that once upon a time
our grandperes and mares were the children of great (there's a supposition)
grandperes and mares who were not as persnickety about
feeding their children botulism and making them work with whirling exposed machinery because,
in their day;
"We were thankful for what we HAD and we weren't lucky enough, as you are, to have fresh poison to eat and shiny oiled bits of mechanical heaven to play with, so shut your gob and do as you're told. We're your parents. We won't kill you without reason."

Life would be simpler if you could find what you liked without looking for it.
On the other hand, a nice surprise beats a sharp stick any day.

Pour liquor on it

Marzipan Gin by Frizzychick
We would like to thank Sir Bossel for bringing this piece to our attention.

If cooking is "chemistry that you eat", then alcohol is..."chromium cleaner that you drink"...? Short
of water or pig sweat or pet food or fashion magazines, it is hard to think of anything that is as
simple and similar across the range as alcohol, in that it has to be flavoured and scented so that
you can tell one product from another and the very nature of that flavour and scent might mean the difference between a successful season and no one but creditors at your door and phone.

Must be jelly, jam don't shake like that!
