We are on some e-mail list together and he is not especially active on
those. Probably busy staying warm. Yellowknife is in Canada's "deep-
freeze". Not to mention he has grandchildren and great-grandchildren to
make life interesting.

AUNT ELLEN NOTT'S CORNISH PASTY RECIPE
Aunt Ellen was born in 1851 and was 85 years old when
she taught me [Mabel Weller] (in Cornwall 1938) to make
pasties. I like to think that she had been taught by her
mother.
The ingredients are simple: pie crust, cubed round
steak, onions and potatoes, salt and pepper. Turnip or
leeks can be used for a change of flavour. All
ingredients are raw.
Roll out pie crust and cut into rounds or ovals about
the size of a butter plate. On one half of the pie crust
arrange, in this order, a few slices of potato, a layer
of onion, a pile of steak and the salt and pepper.
Moisten the edge of the crust around the filling, and
fold the bare crust over. Seal the edge very well or the
onion juices will run out and make the pasty stick to
the baking dish. Cut two vents in the top.
Bake @ 400øF/205øC for about an hour.
Modern pasties seem to be made with leftovers: ground up
cooked meat and left over assorted vegetables mixed
together in a pastry which is joined in a thick roll at
the top. This was reported by recent visitors to the
U.K.
