Slow cooked quality
Faced with a request for something different on the menu, I decided to go with a standard. Ribs. No matter that it takes a whole afternoon to do the job properly; that’s what I had available on the timeline. I decided to go outside my comfort zone and purchase the meat from a local butcher shop. Bit more expensive, balanced by much better quality. Home to heat the oven and then let the combination of low heat and slow time work the magic. It did.
Our lack of progress toward a new address does elicit questions from others in the circle. I no longer want to stress about the when, although the where remains important. Given the snowfall pics coming up from the east, it is probably better to show some patience. Check this shot from the area close to the National Park.
There might be a road under there, if the poles are considered as valid evidence. It might also be a cross-country chase. Whatever the case, this is not your father’s winter. This is now. And for anyone with an intersecting lane, a strong back and a solid shovel are recommended.
This week, the TV coverage of curling comes to us from Japan, where the J. Jones team are defending Canada’s honour against the world. Although the game times are outside my comfort zone (late night backed up with early morning), I hope to catch a few more ends before the weekend brings us back to reality. No need to hurry, hard.
