Doug's Project 365

I asked Lis if she wanted potato pancakes this morning, and then jokingly asked, “heart-shaped potato pancakes?”. She didn’t say no, so…

This is what happens when you give me dry ice. Yes, that’s a wee dram of rye.

This storm is just enough snow to be photogenic without being (I hope) much of a hassle in the morning

With the rest of that Impossible Burger meat, we made ravioli. Quite good, if I do say so myself.

We ordered some Impossible burger meat with our Imperfect Foods order this week. Tonight we did a side-by-side taste test of tiny little 2oz burgers vs. our excellent CSA pasture-raised beef.

My verdict: if you told me this burger was some non-beef meat I’d believe it. It’s definitely not beef, and not as good as the good CSA stuff, but passable. In a more highly-seasoned application I might not even notice.

Brewed since 2001, this world-class beer is a nice treat after a tough day.

Something tells me the walk button (under the cardboard) is not hooked up yet.

I’ve always been a bit contrarian.

OK, so this is not *my* tradition, but it’s quite common in England to serve pork pies for Christmas dinner. These came out great, if I do say so myself.

I may not be able to go out for Chinese food to celebrate Christmas Eve With the Jews this year, but at least I know how to make a Mai Tai.
