For my own recollection
Mix
3 cups of flour
not quite a tablespoon baking powder
a teaspoon or so of sugar because the recipe I adapted had 3 tablespoons and I was too chicken to leave it out altogether in case it was doing something chemical with the beer and baking powder
Fill a two-cup measure with
blue cheese
jack cheese
parmesan
ground walnuts
fried onions that you get in a bag from the Arab grocery store
I think the cheese was about 1-1/4 cups, and the onion and walnuts were both about 1/2 cup, because the whole was over the 2-cup line
Mix the stuff in the two-cup measure with the dry stuff. Pour a 12-ounce bottle of beer into it and mix it until just mixed. Butter a pan, put it in a 375 F oven for a bit over an hour, and put a bit of butter on top for the last ten-fifteen minutes.
Yeah, there's six ways I shouldn't eat this, but I still have this huge lump of blue cheese.
On another front: My friend Marilyn lent me these two CDs by "Brave Old World," a no longer existing group her cousin Michael Alpert was involved in. The one called "The Upward Flight" just ended. It has the Internationale in Yiddish. Twice. It's a tribute to S. An-sky, a Yiddish folklorist from the turn of the last century, and has worker's songs, children's songs, and some Hasidic stuff. I have never been so thoroughly charmed by a cimbalom before.
The reason I am spamming lj today is that I have determined I will really finish this chapter tonight, and I find that posting on lj is a less distracting distraction than reading amateur romances.
