Details like these help explain the restive nature of your dream life.


While the dreams are vivid I would not call the sleep restive. Also I don't think the assessment of the gifts I received is analagous to the rest of my life. In many ways my work is diverse and exciting with a high degree of autonomy.

I didn't really want anything special for Christmas, so I didn't get anything that memorable. The highlight of my Christmas celebration was probably the meal I cooked for my family. This was the menu:

--pancetta, leek and goat cheese tartlets (appetizer)
--cream of mushroom soup [made with homemade chicken stock, lots of cream, leeks and a variety of fresh and dried mushrooms], served with homemade Parker House butter rolls
--tossed salad with homemade balsamic vinaigrette dressing
--8-lb standing rib roast, purchased from Bornhofen's meat market, cooked to medium-rare and served with a red wine, beef stock and crimini mushroom reduction sauce
--spinach and roasted red pepper gratin [lots of swiss and ricotta cheese went into this along with some cream and eggs]
--mashed potato gratin [other main ingredients were sour cream, cream cheese, chives and butter]
--homemade Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream [this was some of the best ice cream I've ever had--I made a custard base and steeped the beans for quite some time]
--flourless chocolate cake [I was a little disappointed with this--it had a chalky texture, possibly due to over-baking]

Overall, this was an incredibly decadent and delicious meal. The rib roast was some of the best red meat I've consumed this year and the good food [and good wine and champagne] got everyone into a festive mood.


How do you get through some of these complicated courses and then blow a flourless chocolate cake?

Rib roast is an incredibly tastefull choice. It looks and tastes great and is an uncommon holiday dinner.

It looks like you worked with more cream than a jizz mopper at a XXX booth store. Do you usually cook rich meals or was this a holiday special. The meal sounds excellent. I always get a high degree of satisfaction out of cooking a great meal.

The wife stunned me with a Dan Marino framed, autographed football jersey. I'm running out of room at Slappland to hang this shit up but a great gift and a nice surprise.

That is a great idea. I'd be in tentatively. Do it somewhere central for people in Wisconsin like Doug or Indiana like many folks.
