Learn something new every day. "Salmon" came from whatever dictionary I checked. The kippers I know (being an American/Canadian) are small tins from New Brunswick (usually) that have herring fillets (I guess its a fillet) in them packed in oil. Good right out of the tin.
This is one brand
ooh - I can ask you then.
I have a can of smoked oysters in oil.
What do I do with them?
I eat those right out of the tin. (is that a crazy canadian thing lol?)

Eat them! No, seriously. On a cracker, if you like. Or on a toothpick. Don't eat the toothpick.
Eat them either straight out of the tin or on crackers...mmmmmm My DH will be right over! LOL

Wrap each one in bacon - sticking a tooth pick through to hold the bacon on and then broil a few minutes, turn, broil a few more minutes, now remove tooth pick and eat = Angels on Horseback.
John ps. cooked them at a high class restraunt, but never ate any.
"zski"

here, kitty kitty! (no offense, but I can't stand 'em!)
Drain the oil off and use a fork to smash them up with an 8 ounce package of cream cheese. Add a couple squeezes of lemon juice and a couple of shakes of tabasco. Serve with bagel chips.

When you want to make your own clothes, I'd say: buy a good sewing machine. A good tool is necessary (ask man, they always buy a good tool, it's half the work) . You'll get very frustrated if your machine doesn't work and you can see it on the clothes you've made. It's always handy to follow a course. Pick one where you can learn how to draw your own patterns. When you understand the basics of drawing, you can change every pattern in the one you like. Pick something simple to begin with, sportstrousers for example (not stretch). A good book is always handy. Best are the books were they explain one technic at the time. I only know dutch books, but I'm sure there are enough english books with that topic. I wish you a lot of fun sewing and showing your own clothes
I missed the original post, but Hendrika is correct if anyone is interested in making his/her clothes, and yes, there are many excellent books on the USA market, one of my all time favorites is the 1976 edition of Reader's Digest Complete Guide to Sewing. It is not as up to date as the newer edition, but has more of the basics, IMHO. Emily
That's why I have 3 copies of the old one and only one of the new edition! :) Sewing for Dummies is good too.
