ABC WEDNESDAY--"N" is for "Niš"

Pretty spooky.  These skulls are part of a gruesome tower built by the Turks after the Battle of Cegar Hill (CHEH-gar) near the city of Nis (NEESH) in 1809.

This warning to future Serbian rebels was erected using over 900 skulls of slain Serbs, but only 52 remain.  Check out the whole story on this site.

OYSTER MUSHROOMS

 They say young and small  OYSTER MUSHROOMS  taste best, but I hardly ever see anything but the big ones. They're still good.....
