I'm seriously impressed. That temp looks perfect. Is that a mushroom duxelle in there, and did you make that??? I'm finding out where you live and coming over.

Beef Wellington with Mushroom Sauce

Beef wellington is a gourmet meal for any special occasion. Tender and juicy filet mignon steaks wrapped in puff pastry and baked until golden brown. Each individual portion is served with a delicious red wine mushroom pan sauce. Keep the puff pastry cold for easy wrapping. If it's been out for...

Thanks bud.
Sear and then chill......the chill made a huge difference from the last time I made it.

Not exactly a duxelles....I put a fine chop to some mushrooms with a little fine shallot sauteed in evoo with s&p and a touch of white wine. Oh and thyme. Yeah, I made that.....my wife even asked for pics of my meat to show off at work........

Edit: I did forget the mustard......put it on after while we were eating. I was pretty baked lol

I filed the paperwork today and decided to open my own bakery. I found the logo I dreamed of, or rather a picture of it. Now I'm designing menus and creating layouts. I believe that everything will work out. That's just want a very cozy, warm name, but I can not come up with yet. Do you have any ideas?

is that avatar John Belushi in "1941" ?

Probably when I was a little kid with my mom and grandma.

I remember grandma letting us make our own little creations with leftover dough. Yummmm, great memories.

today's scooter ride (or one of them, anyway) Lost branch road

All of this is a lot steeper than it looks...and more focused....

to give you an idea of how steep...i didn't move the camera, it's in a holder clamped to my mirror post. that's just how far i'm leaned over to make this curve at about 30

down the big hill on Engletown rd.

and on to Pine Mtn. Rd.

almost 700 miles in 3 weeks....

Just had an afternoon delight with my married violinist gf. This variety consisted of catching up, banana bread and lattes, and sight reading great violin duets. Super fun, and I already cleaned all of yesterday, so the place looks a feels great. I think I'll take a nap...

Ahh Tyler, I was hoping you would report back you got 'lucky'. I'll keep rooting for you.

I did get lucky on Monday at a new massage parlor right near my place. Crappy massage, but an awesome ending. Not really lucky since I paid for it, but great nonetheless. I'm gonna spend a lot of money there.

it takes fine pictures...if i stop to take them...just wanted to see how it would work taking them from the holder. i can reach the shutter button with my thumb without even taking my hand off the grip, but even at the fastest shutter setting, you get too much...^ that when you go over 20 mph

How about a pic of the scooter. If you've posted it, a link would be appreciated, thanks

Lance it. Or, maybe have a professional do it.

I thought I had a bad day, but I changed my mind.

I had to work at a money warehouse today, but no one told them I was coming...locked in the kill box/ lobby for half an hr till they figured out what to do with me.
They forgot to take my temp and check my ID after all that, understaffed, all the vault doors open( supposed to be closed all the time) texting vault codes to each other. What an operation

Took a 90 mile country road home afterward, rather than the highways. I'm checking my balls next.

i have posted it, but it's easier to just post it again than it is to try to find it
i checked the speedo against a good gps, it runs 3 mph fast up to 35, then it seems to be 6 mph fast, so the fastest i've had it going so far was actually 67, the speedo saying 73
