Morning


It's almost time to start cooking......we've got a huge turkey. Might hit mid 20°s today. Nice and sunny now but getting a little snow this afternoon and down to the single digits tonight. Lots of stuff to do but I definitely need to get the kitchen in order for all the cooking this week.

How's everyone's morning going :blsmoke:

I'm rehydrating dried cranberries in white wine, ginger, allspice, tiny dash of cayenne.
Putting that at the bottom of a pear pie with pecan crumble on top.

I'll add the leftover reserve liquid to the cranberry sauce, and the rehydrated cranberries in the pie shouldn't turn everything pink like fresh cranberries, keep the spice from overpowereing the delicate pear taste

Made stuffing croutons from mix of brioche, sourdough, wheat, farm white bread.

My dad’s best friend died Friday. RIP Walter “Terry” Arfons. Member of the Arfons jet dragster family.
I remember spending my weekends watching the Green Monster fly down the strip.

His father Walt and uncle Art, ran the Bonneville Salt Flats. Walt held the land speed record for three days before Art went faster.

His cousin Craig died in Sebring, Florida, while shooting for the water speed record. He would’ve lived but the o-rings on his safety belts broke.

sorry for the sad post

I had many enjoyable days at Dragway 42 in West Salem Ohio watching Arfons, Garlitts and Prudhome in the early 70's

I grew up hunting a lot, but duck hunting was my least favorite. From cleaning and the smell of burned feathers to the greasy, swamp flavor bird at dinner. Disgusting, Every avid Duck Hunter I knew had several hot or sweet recipes to kill the taste of that awful bird. Clearly, God never intended for humans to eat the damn things.

Tame duck tastes much better but is still a bucket of grease.

Last time I hunted was November of 1988. More time to fish.
