who has gorged on fresh caught smelt more times than he can
remember.....but, sadly, cannot recall exactly when he last did so.
and doughballs is simply a variant spelling of dumplings.

There is a worldfull of things that seem less than appetizing. Goose

porcine intestines, sexual organs (of pretty much anything), and grass

to be found (regardless of photoperiod) in the cooler.
