Good Afternoon. My keyboard was locked and wouldn't function. I wasn't sure whether or not I could post, or not.

I guess I could!

You sound chipper. That's a good thing.

I spent the day working in the yard, waiting for a phone call, and working in the kitchen.

Beef stock, ham stock, veg stock, Demi-glace, flagolette beans, (A soup, to start things) hand-crafted brie and ham ravioli to cook in ham-hock broth with flagolette and swiss chard (shamelessly stolen recipe from Chef Hodges). Many preps are done for dinner tomorrow night.

The soup I described will be the opening round of a special dinner tomorrow night. The menu includes almost all species. Ever. Except dinosaur. I can't find any frozen.

8 courses, without dessert. Paired with wines.
