  • Today’s dessert was Pistachio Semifreddo with Chocolate and Cherries from @helen_goh_bakes and @goodfoodau Worked well in the individual cups for our annual hiking group holiday lunch.
  • Forgot to grab the before pictures, so you’ll have to take my word for it! Just took two reasonably priced racks of pork from Costco and with the help of a YouTube video, pulled together a crown roast of pork for Thanksgiving dinner. And yes, that is a sewing needle I used to connect the two pieces of meat. 😂😂😂 #turkeyfree #thanksgiving #homebutchery
