Burd!! Good Lord, I couldn't have wished more for anyone to join our ranks. Good to see you man. I've been very envious of your temperatures, although I must confess that I think I've grown too accustomed to our median temps to want to live in yours. Still, I dream about snow and coolth and the quiet stillness of cold temperatures. Maybe, someday.
All the best to you and yours my dear friend.

Yes, we will soon need to catch up. It is chilly here today, thanks to a Nor'Easter -- 74 degrees. We might soon hope to get into the 60's *gasp*.
I am making Christmas Beef -- fresh beef, marinated in Scotch Bonnets, thyme, ginger, garlic and avocado oil. Slow cooked to succulent tenderness with onions, scallions, seasoning peppers, pepper, Redmond sea salt, beef stock, and served with rice n' peas, local sweet potato, water spinach, drippings gravy, and Mac n' cheese. Oh, glory. I think I'm gaining weight just by the smell.

That sounds damn good. I was not able to dedicate my usual time to hunting this year, so I roasted a leg of lamb instead of game. Turned out extremely well and tomorrow night we will have gyros with the left overs. Also my wife and I decided to try something different and we made pistachio cardamom cake with almond flavored cream cheese frosting together for our desert. Definitely a cake we will make again. This will be our last Christmas in this house, plus my kids are damn near adults now, so we wanted it to be memorable. Next Christmas will be the same, ha ha, just christening a new house and still feeling like my kids are babies despite them being 17 and 18 by next December.
