I've been using our local library too. It's pretty well stocked with good stuff. I borrowed five books on Sunday, and I am going to be pressed for time to read them all before they are due back. The nice thing is I can renew them on-line

Conn Iggulden's series about Genghis Khan is still on my plate. Great stuff.

Oh yah, and does anyone have a good recipe for chicken giblets. I've got a big bag full of gizzards and hearts and can't quite decide how to cook them.

The only way that I've had gizzard is deep fried w/batter, you can season the batter to suit your taste...not bad....

I fry mine, with the hearts though you have to fry them quick in high heat otherwise you are going to be chewing them for a while.

Austin and Joel are right – here we do the same, only in the end from time to time we add mixed eggs. But as a lazy person, I see many disadvantages of the frying. So, of first I put them in a bigger metal dish and bake very well in the oven (I avoid staying near them while frying), after, again it is possible to fry it quickly with eggs.
Some variation are possible in the oven – I add a cup (or 2) of white wine (+oil or butter), or a coffee cup of vinegar + a tee spoon of sugar mixed in it and a tee cup of water. A little red hot pepper and black pepper are working very well. … all that is going very well with nice dry red wine (maybe beer too).

I do not love the crowded places too ... the wilderness is calling me ...

I'll try roasting them off before I fry and see what happens.

My wife won't eat them so when I make them I make then only for me.

My local library is sorta pitiful, so when I can snag a couple recent releases, I grab and run....

I think I'm going with this recipe for the bag of giblets in my freezer. I like Portuguese food and figure I can substitute a good hot sauce for the piri-piri. Portuguese Chicken Giblets recipe

Borislav, you know I like history, and I find the story of the rise of the Mongol Empire very fascinating. It changed the world.

Havasu, a nicely cooked heart is a very tasty thing. Get over it. Be a man!

Austin, did you ever read that book?

And Joel, sometimes the recent releases are not the best. There may be hidden jewels stashed in that library of yours just waiting to be discovered.

I have a three year old, I read at a snails pace. I just finished one, I'm about to start on that one.

I typically have one fiction, one non fiction, and one classic going at any time.

Books can take a while.
