Weekend update...

With a whoosh the weekend is ending.  Friday night we went to a church gathering and played spoons.  One of those surprisingly violent evenings.  Saturday night was another church function for youth promotion.  Today was church.  Saturday afternoon was a great trip to Rare Cuts in Harahan.  They are a gourmet meat market - everything is cryovac packed or pre-packaged.  The meats and cuts are restaurant grade and selection.  The staff is knowlegeable and helpful.  Picked up a package of hanger steak, duck breast halves (at 8 oz.+ each they rightly deserve the name steaks), and some tenderloin tails (the less aesthetically pleasing but equally delicious ends of that filet we all love).  Projects forthcoming there...

Just put a blackberry balsamic reduction in the fridge to cool.  It may be dressing some of the beef (and/or duck) later in the week...

For now it's back to laundry and cleaning up as we have a gaggle coming over next Sunday for lunch.
