[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	My brother in law always called these 'Greek cucumbers' but my mother in law makes them too and just calls them cucumber salad or 'pickles'. For some reason, the whole family calls cucumbers 'pickles' - drives me nuts. 6 or so good sized cucumbers, fairly thinly sliced 1 medium onion thinly sliced into rings about a cup or so of heavy cream plus vinegar to taste Black pepper Salt cucumbers in layers in a colander and let drain for several hours. Rinse well, then add pepper, onions, heavy cream and vinegar to taste. Place in refrigerator in a covered bowl overnight and serve the next day.

	Cucumber Salad My recipe calls for 2 peeled cucumbers and one medium onion sliced, I use a Mandoline vegie slicer. Combine about a cup of Mayo / Miracle Whip with a one or two tablespoons of vinegar and enough milk to make the mix flow like a light sauce or dressing (usually about half a cup). Or you may substitute dill pickle juice for the vinegar and milk, My recipe calls for salt and black pepper and dill weed. I don't always add the dill and you might substitute any herb you like on vegies. -----signature----- The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to b
