It's Christmas!
More proof that the holiday season is always a tasty time of year (not to mention over commercialized). Have a happy Christmas, Hanukah, Festivus, and New Year!

A Holiday How-To: So the Oven Broke on Turkey Day...
Update, 12:05 pm: Mama D says the turkey takes 4 hours on the grill, and is turning out so brown and lovely that she may grill the turkey every year from now on. You heard it here first, friends: necessity is indeed the mother of delicious invention.

Another Delicious Post
On a side note, I realize that I love to blog and talk about food. A lot. So to help myself out, and you all as well, I added food to the list of things I talk about alot on the blog's home page. If you click on it, all of my food related posts should now pop up. I've blogged about food so much that there's actually more than one page of pictures-just hit "older posts" when you get to the bottom. Looking at all that culinary goodness made me so hungry, I had to go eat something.

Silence on the air waves
I thought maybe I should post a little note letting you all know that I've been neglecting the blog lately because I've had a weird flu-like bug since Saturday. So in my quest to sleep, lounge in pajamas on my couch and eat saltine crackers, I haven't had much time to be out taking pictures. I'll be back later this week.
Until then, here are some other photoblogs that I dig because they focus on daily photos from other cities:

The Family Chef
Mama D is one hell of a cook - while I was at home visiting her and the family this weekend she whipped up a lobster bisque, steak, carrots, and baked potatoes for dinner. She's a pro, and is single-handedly the reason that I cannot cook very well (I'm learning...I only fill the kitchen with smoke about once every two weeks now...quite the accomplishment). Above, she stirs the bisque, and below, stirs up some simmering carrots.

Kansas City Beef
I went to visit Mama D in Kansas City over the weekend. Knowing my obsession for cheeseburgers, she made a smart choice and took me to lunch at J Alexander's, a local restaurant that has delicious well-done fare as well as one of the best burgers in town. Other than wanting to slather ketchup all over it (perhaps a second obsession), I enjoyed it thoroughly. You can see below just how much I enjoyed it...just call me a member of the clean plate club.

Pumpkins- the after shot
The after shots - I had attempted a Jack Skellington face, with mixed results but better than I usually do. I have one extra pumpkin (in case I massacred mr. skellington) which I might carve as well.
