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.

Cooking while Camping

Campsite eggs benedict: a study in culinary failure. We ended up scrambling them instead, and eating them sandwich style with some cheesy Doritos (very classy).

Culinary Prowess

More food, I know. This is a shot of the Manicotti Dan and I cooked up for my Dad on Friday night...it took us a good while to figure it all out but it was a really good time. We followed it up by cooking up some cinnamon apple topping for ice cream (like delicious crustless apple pie a la mode).
