More Best of 2008

Continuing the theme....

The first picture here is of a Shrimp Scampi Pasta I whipped up one night. I wasnt going to take a picture but the wife insisted so there ya go.















The rest are pics of the first Prime Rib Roast I ever cooked. I was a bit stymied that my thermometer only went as low as 140 where as most recipes called for the roast to be removed at 120. I winged it and just kind of went with my gut feel and it ended up being perfect! For the price I am not so sure I will ever do one again but it did turn out wonderfully.

Best of 2008

Ok Im bluffing....this is really another edition of "Catching Up" but I thought I would make it seasonally topical.

Will probably have to do this in 2 posts, sorry Ive been neglecting this lately but I promise 2009 will be a great year for this blog.

Here goes.....

Here are some pictures from Thanksgiving using my previously posted recipe for Turkey. As always it was a smashing success! I decided though after about 10 years of using the Bag Method and every conceivable option that can be optionized; that next year I am going to do a good ole fashioned roasted turkey with stuffing.

























































And for no particular reason here is a picture of my youngest son sporting the Kings jersey and posing in front of his favorite set of wheels.
