so, i found a book while cleaning out the library... this is a rad book... and yes, i said rad.

the book is from 1921 and is more or less an atlas for the NW region. very cool stuff in there, especially the directions... for example, a snippet from the Rte. 492 -- Potlatch, ID to Colfax, WA directions:

3.4 End of road; turn left with poles and travel.
3.6 S-corners, wooden school on right; turn right with poles
3.9 Fork, bear right with poles.
5.5 End of road, sign on left; bear right with poles...

...and so on.

Lots of cool little advertisements and snippets about various places and attractions. Very entertaining to just go through and read the directions and such. A good distraction. Though, I'm curious why every sentence in the directions seems to end with "with poles." Maybe I should give it a try with poles.

And the dog still likes to lick the couch... with poles. surreal

ohwell:
It looks like it's possible to have root beer and pie at the same time -- Root Beer Pie

12 ounces Root beer -- chilled
1 cup Light corn syrup
1/4 cup Dark brown sugar
2 Tablespoons Butter
3 Eggs
1 cup Chopped pecans
1 Egg white -- beaten
1 Prepared pie crust
Pecans halves -- for garnish

Preheat oven to 375F degrees. Pour root beer into a sauce pan and heat over a medium flame. Reduce liquid until it is a syrup-like consistency. Let cool slightly. Melt the butter in a separate pan.

Combine the reduced root beer with corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, flour and chopped pecans and mix with a wire whisk until thoroughly blended. In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs and stir well into a syrup mixture.

Prick the pie crust with a fork and then brush lightly with egg white. Pour the filling in to the shell, garnish with pecan halves and bake in the center of the oven for approximately 40 minutes. When a knife stuck in the center comes out clean, the pie is done. Cool before serving.
