well..in case you were wondering - since i kinda left you hangin'...the beef brisket turned out very well. it was very tasty and with a little bbq sauce was a tasty treat...and on a bun even better. the yam and potato mash was pretty good as well and floyd's baked beans! the boys seemed pleased with it and that's my greatest reward...
yesterday i ran around getting- more - shit done, one of the things being a trip to tenderland meats on granville island to buy some pork for the pulled pork i was making for shauna and me later that night...more meat! it was a bust day i'll tell ya...a trip out to issy's to pick-up some crap that had come in to point roberts, a trip to the shop, home to rub the meat, pardon...and then off to meet one of the world's great guys - my pal marv newland - at moderne burger for a snack and great conversation. i love marv. i see him far less than i would like but it always feels like home when i do see him. then home to throw the pork in the oven...ater making the sauce it would bake in for the four hours...
during the cooking there was a couple trips to granvile island for supplies and visits with mishi and the garbs...nice.
shauna came over and brought along some egg nog and made us egg nog lattes...which i have to admit i had always avoided because it sounded so very wrong..but it was delicious...
the pork turned out great - and i'm having it tonight as well....and the visit with shauna was excellent as well...nice to have her come over and see the new place and get her take on things. she also brought along some cookies she had baked the night before - which i ate some of after he left...nice.
today was more errands, installation of a dimmer, organizing of a room in the new place, more errands and a trip to topanga to see the carnage that is the kitchen - andrew and i are going to be replacing part of the floor in the kitchen over the next couple of days (merry christmas to me....)
ok...i need to relax now...i have a couple of movies, some leftover puled pork and some sweets...damn, that sounds like xmas eve to me...
i love you. i miss you.
