I read once that they actually had pretty good success at training them to be pack animals for artillery units, but that when they came near the site of an actual battle, there was no keeping the moose from running away.
Moose have common sense?
So I must know... what IS your mother's sausage-cooking method?
Brown sausages in frying pan over mediumish heat, add some water, cover and cook 10-15 minutes or until done (probably a good idea to turn them halfway through.
I mostly cook them for spaghetti sauce, and what I HAD been doing was laboriously trying to cut up raw sausages and then cook the chunks, which tended to swell and cook weirdly (casings not so stretchy). This is much easier, and they get more yummy crispy outsides.
My mom built a good portion of the furniture in her house. It wasn't gorgeous, but it worked. She tried to teach me to wire a light switch when I was a kid, but I was too young and it kind of put me off home electrical repair. She really knows an unusual amount of Stuff. I'm nowhere near that useful, but maybe someday....
