my Momma is having surgery tomorrow. the scary kind involving lots of fun words like skull and brain and metal plate. I'm incredibly worried, so I can only imagine how she is feeling. its been a long time coming, and I wish they wouldn't have left it so late. but I keep telling myself at least they are finally doing something. that's gotta be good, right?
Doug
asked me to do some photo-ing for a new Facebook profile picture. I? jumped on it because he is my favorite subject and usually gets annoyed when I snap 30 pictures in a row of him.
some I can't show because I told him "work it baby"...and he did.
these are my favorites of the family friendly ones. he is so damn photogenic!! *snort* and his cousin is the model?!!
note to self. MUST WORK ON NOT CUTTING OFF THE TIPPY TOPS OF HEADS!
my Momma gave me a roasting pan for Christmas. roasted chicken was first on my list! and since I was trying something new anyway, I also attempted giblet gravy...fabulous! a tad time consuming, but EASY AS PIE. unfortunately, I have issues with thickening sauces, so my gravy was a little thin. learn patience (I have NONE) and yours will probably turn out beautifully thick.
and a big shout out of THANKS, Mom! for recommending I cover my chicken instead of following classical roasting methods...it was the most moist bird I've ever eaten.
