#1 asked me if I wanted a light bevvy while we started to cook. "Why yes I would!" Local apple cider with TJ's cranberry ginger beer. Mine had a glug of Reyka vodka. She knew I saw a pic opportunity so she sugared some cranberries and stuck them on a Rosemary spring. Before and after immersion. 🍽️🍜

Doing most of my shopping these days on a #CargoBike. It's 38F and very windy. I've got 4 bags of groceries and a case of wine (plus I stopped for a pastry)
I like to think people are looking with awe and jealousy, but probably just "WTF is up with that idiot?" I love it. 🚲

Yeah it's just Chili but def had a Artisanal vibe: Beef from my sister's cow, @ranchogordo.bsky.social Ayocote Morado beans, grated aged white cheddar that I smoked myself. Canned tomatoes from Costco (?). Ok then, two kinds of beer.
🍽️🍜. Pretty good actually.

Wedding date set for May! Our son (Vegan) will be the Officiant!
Daughter said the BF she was bringing home was "special" so I whipped up a mixed grill of flank steak, chix thighs, lamb lollipops, shrimp, and 2 kinds of pork sausage. Also 3 chimichurri-style dipping sauces. I'm expecting an engagement soon. Did my part! 🍽️🍜 #BBQmunity

To accompany that great Pecan-smoked Turkey, my spouse made a Cranberry Chutney which brought a nice back-end kick due to the cayenne. Also a corn casserole and roasted DEI carrots with Feta and sliced almonds. 🍽️🍜

Smoked turkey turned out pretty well with Pecan and Apple! Spatchcock bird cooked FAST ~15 min a pound at 225-250F. Skin very dark brown due to the rub, but meat was juicy.
Decent but not entirely arty breakdown due to Old Fashioneds and Napa Cab while waiting. 🦃 🍽️🍜 #BBQmunity

Roasted Spaghetti Squash with cherry tomatoes, Boursin cheese, and chicken sausage. Nice to make a dish that comes with it's own serving vessel! 🍽️🍜

Not much for eating turkey on Thanksgiving anymore, but apparently I bought enough groceries last month to get a free one. Spent my lunch break butterflying a 16# bird. Dry brining in the fridge now until Saturday and I'll smoke it. 🍽️🍜 #BBQmunity

I'm at a conference and five glasses of wine into the evening, the dessert table looks especially appealing. 😳🍷

Rotisserie chicken turned into Chix Salad served as broiled, open face sandwich on artisan sourdough toast with tomatoes and cheddar cheese. Honeycrisp apple slices and cheddar Smart Pop. Quite satisfying. 🍽️🍜

Welcome to Central Ohio where "Trick-or-Treating" (not called that) is held during a specified 2 hr period and never on a Fri/Sat/Sun. So brave the mid 40F temps, the rain and 15-20 mph wind gusts this Thursday evening ONLY between 6-8 for a full-sized candy. We'll leave the light on for 'ya.

Blueberry Crumble with homegrown blueberries (not my home). Not surprisingly there are all kinds of flavors you don't find in storebought, even organic berries. Of course extra amazing with Vanilla ice cream 🍽️🍜

For the family reunion on NC last weekend my spouse made an incredible lasagna filled with two kinds of sausage, ham, hard boiled eggs, spinach and mushrooms. Mixed green salad with manchego, apples, and walnuts. Being GF she couldn't eat it but plans a polenta version 🍽️🍜

#1 coming out from a health adventure this week. The first thing she wanted to eat was... Chicken and Wild Rice Soup. Used rotisserie chicken for the stock and the soup. 🍽️🍜 Lots of catch up from last weekend coming!

I've had plenty of Farm-to-Table meals, but I'll admit this was my first "Oh and the Chipotle Beef came from the cow we raised" 😮. Also rice, black beans and a corn casserole with house grown corn. 🍽️😐

Pork Loin Roast with roasted apples and sweet onions. I made a decent sauce too. People say they'd love a dinner invitation. Well in addition to great conversation, the best guests bring us breakfast for the next day, Bourbon we can't find locally, and flowers. Everybody wins! 🍽️🍜❤️

I cleaned out the freezer of everything that was more than 2 years old. The biggest community #compost run I've done. Probably had 35-40 pounds, including the usual stuff.

Lovely Fall evening so we enjoyed Ina Garten "Weeknight Bolognese" over Spaghetti Squash by the fire pit. My contribution to this meal was riding my #CargoBike to 3 stores yesterday to find suitable squash and opening a Lake County, CA Merlot for dinner. 🍽️🍜
