confession: i was initially resistant to this as xmas dinner bc of being personally caught up in anglocentric notions of “tradition” but now i’m super excited

Made my impossible sausage ragu in the slow cooker again yesterday. So satisfying I ended up falling asleep with my cat on my lap not even halfway into the commanders-buccaneers playoff game.

We have also started serving fresh and pickled veggies on their own “relish tray” in the middle of the table, which has been a great way to get everyone to eat more vegetables with barely any prep at all.

yummmm
now ya gotta start experimenting with different pickling spices for different veggies
I made khao soi last night and it was so good we forgot to add the fish sauce/lime juice/palm sugar at the end!

Making strawberry ice cream with berries I pick from our CSA is a highlight of my cooking year.
It still surprises me how much better the ice cream you can make at home is than stuff you buy in the store.

you just made me remember churning butter with my mom in the mid-70's, wow.
we also did the old school hand cranked ice & rock salt contraptions for ice cream, iirc there was no real difference between that and the "modern" ones which have been around for at least 20 years?

no real difference in flavor/quality, I mean, and yeah homemade rules

One of the Tupelo supermarkets finally started carrying fresh pork belly so I made rolled chashu pork to go with some good ramen — it turned out fantastic. And now that supermarket may not carry pork belly again, waaaahhh, there wasn't bin space for it when I went shopping yesterday.

Our neighbors did this at a block party when I was a kid. It was so cool!
