derekl_1963Corned Beef
Tried my hand at making my own corned beef - it made an excellent corned beef and cabbage on Friday and an INCREDIBLE corned beef and hash again last night. I'm almost tempted to make another just to have the leftovers to hash.
I think I've bought my last commercial corned beef.
Thanksgiving
Yep, its that time of year again - time for my LJ folks to endure a month of me obsessing over T day. Chuck came over on Saturday and we started discussing methods and menu. This should be fun as I'm attempting an entirely new way of cooking the turkey this year. Details to come.
Photography
Photographing little Missy has proven to be a major challenge - I have to shoot a very active little hamster in the low light environment of our living room. I can't use the camera's flash this close because I could injure her little eyes.
An experimental timed exposure of the trees in the background silhouetted against the rising moon. This would have been a better shot had the clouds not been moving so fast... back to the drawing board.
