kirkcudbrightLast night:
roast pork loin stuffed with dried apples, cranberries, and almonds
brussels sprouts browned in garlic butter and braised in cream
mashed potatoes with cream cheese
tasty pastries from George's Bakery
Today:
roast duck with duck liver gravy
cauliflower soup
assorted xmas chocolates
Tomorrow:
My mother is cooking a turkey with a backstory - I didn't ask, I didn't want to know, but this has been in the freezer since last Thanksgiving, because my ex-sister-in-law pre-empted her with the complete fixings (courtesy of her employer). Oh, and there are a couple of frozen pies, which might be from this year.
I love my mother, and I grew up big and strong on her cooking, but I didn't learn to cook from her.
