Scenes from Christmas Day 2010
Santa baby
Most of the haul. Note the molecular! gastronomy! kit! zombies, great movies, and fountain pen. And Kinect with workout game.
A happy Monster.
The spread: standing rib roast with wine and Rosemary jus, roast fennel and Rosemary mashed potatoes, shredded Brussels sprouts with onion and crispy bacon, and yeast rolls.
Dessert: spiced pumpkin cake with caramel and orange cream cheese frosting.
It was great to share the day (and the meal!) with good friends old and new.
All in all, another successful year. :)

Fair warning: followers of this blog may be holiday-ed out soon. What can I say? I can't guarantee I'm going to leave the house on any given day and I'm tired of dachshund pics. Ok, not tired of, exactly...

Scenes from the outskirts of the Art Basel satellite exhibitions in Midtown. Above: orange spiky thing. Below: I couldn't resist. Dick chicken? And don't forget shark toof (lower right beside the car). My mind reels at the possibilities.
Apparently, whatever a dick chicken is, it owns.
