Yesterday Jon tried to smoke a brisket but it was so windy he gave up after about two hours of fighting with it. So I wrapped it in plastic and then foil and stuck it in the oven for about 8 hours. It was slightly smokey but really tender. I made a tomato cucumber salad, a pot of beans, and some mac and cheese to go with it. The mac was sort of an afterthought and really bad for you. I had a small chunk of Velveeta, heavy cream, shredded cheddar, and half a stick of butter. But I used the enriched omega 3 pasta!!
I sort of feel like this doubles as a food diary so I must confess earlier in the afternoon Tony and I went for ice cream and I had a red velvet concrete -Vanilla ice cream mixed with red velvet cake and fresh raspberries, then they swirled in cream cheese frosting ribbons, and chocolate chips. Hello why has no one done this before, it was bliss
Tonight we are having chicken wings...Not my choice but Jon requested it so I will oblige...Maybe I will be having a salad tonight which is probably a good idea considering the fat party I had yesterday.
Love you!
