13 March Monday

Well, the Oscars did happen yesterday, and they didn´t fail to serve. I, on the other hand, failed to serve. The Oscar may be a statuette, but my dinner was a bust. Why? Well, I wrote about the way I normally do Oscars party menus, and there were not many references to food in the movies. Tar had cucumber salad, Everything etc. had of course, hot dogs. Then I saw Triangle of Sadness, and there is nothing appetizing about this flick, let me tell you. After I saw it, I decided not to make food for the party. Also, I had an organ recital to play, specifically accompanying silent movies. It was fun, took a little time.

So, as a consolation prize, I share a sneak preview of my upcoming corned beef for St. Patty´s day.

It´s brining beautifully, it has a great color on it. I flipped it over, re-wrapped it, and and it´s having its final rest over the next four days.

I´m so happy, it´s like the Jamie Leigh Curtis of corned meat. OK, soda bread, potatoes, cabbage, you know the drill. More to come.
