Things are getting back to normal around Ferndale, the Nooksack River is back in its banks, the roads are dry, and the weather is back to a normal dismal grey. We were planning a recipe from Sam Choy's "Little Poke Cookbook" to start off the new year, but we still can't find the book! We will keep that one until later.
