Beautiful, Syz! Gorgeous brown base - can tell you did the roux perfectly!

Hollah at me on your next visit, Jon. We'll cook something, drink something and talk about all things KK!

While I'm glad to hear that the feeling has come back, like I said based upon my own experience, this isn't something to mess around with. And I NEVER put my knives in the sink. If I don't wash/dry and put them away as I used them, I lay them out on the counter next to the sink and wash/dry them one-by-one and back into the block when I'm done.

Assume it was your Guru Challenge? Nice plate, Bosco!

Listen to Doc, Bosco! I cut my thumb on a broken glass a couple of years ago, and nicked a nerve; even with specialist attention, I have some permanent numbness on one side. Nothing to be messing around with, son!

Plating was gorgeous! Break a leg, kid, in the Guru Challenge!

A good one - for a change, Poochie!

She's been here almost as long as me! I moved here in 1982. Born and raised in the South. What about you? Where'd you grow up, Jon?

OK, it's day 2, so how's the finger??

My local butcher carries bison, so I will have to add this to the "upcoming cooks" list.

If you don't go get stitched up (which it sounds like you should!!), make sure that you put some good antibiotic cream on it and keep it bandaged well! Last thing you need at this point is to get it infected!

No, Ken, stay away, stay away!! You know what happens when you go to WS!

The high temp here right now is 25F, but sunny - hey, just looking for that silver lining, baby! So, that gumbo would be awful warming and tasty about suppertime when it's supposed to be 16F on to a low of 5F!!

I hate you! This is what I woke up to this morning! And the low tonight is supposed to be 5F!

Last night's snow and the low tonight is supposed to be 5F! Too Damned Early!! Stay Warm, ya'll!

Looks seriously tasty, Doc. I'm doing chicken thighs tonight, but as a Fricassee - INDOORS, as the snow is flying as I type this. Plus, I want to test drive the new DO.

Kewl! How long has she lived here? Hopefully long enough to be acclimated! Snow just started falling. We're about to get hit hard - maybe 10" of snow tonight and the low tomorrow night is predicted to be 5F (-15C)!! A little to damned early for me, but you roll with it!

It's just started. Grass is just lightly dusted. Most of it will be later tonight, so not even contemplating dealing with it until tomorrow morning and then, only if I really need to go out for something.

I call it the "turbo" setting! Like when I want to fast ramp up the temps to sear a steak; pull that Guru port plug out and zoooomm!

DAMN, now I got that stupid song in my head!

Another stunner, MacKenzie! Never heard of the egg yolk thing before? Got the wheels spinning in my head!

Well done, sir!
