Spending Christmas in Orlando with Mom has been a blast.  Even though I forgot to use an oven mitt when grabbing a 400 degree cast iron skillet…  As you can see the injuries were worth the effort.  This was one huge and tasty steak.

It actually started out as a roast and at the last minute we decided to cut it into steak house style steaks and serve it up.  I can barely walk.

If you are reading this I hope your holidays were filled with as much joy and good food as mine.  We’ve got some uncertain and interesting times ahead in 2009.  My New Years resolution is to make the most of it no matter what.  Life is great no matter what the stock market or news tells us.
