The irony – the guy says something to the extent of, “Never mind crab cakes! I wish I were having Jambalaya right now!”
Oh weather man, how I could fulfill your dreams.
Quite an experience at the supermarket. And by experience, I mean waiting in line at the speed of stagnant water acting as a fertile breeding ground for malaria-carrying Anopheles gambiae. Highlight of the supermaket experience – finding clam juice. What the heck is clam juice?
Juice from a clam.
Duh.
So after foolishly following directions telling me to food-process the vegetables, a process that processed the greens and reds and whites into anything but the finely chopped wonders I was promised, and uhh… a long series of steps involving chicken, sausage, shrimp, and clam juice… this what what the Jambalaya ended up looking like.

And this is what it looked like in a plate…

And this is what it looked like with Besho drinking a beer and pointing at it.

I say it was pretty successful. Although next time I’m tempted to dump a whole bottle of sriracha into it. Mmm… rooster sauce – the sugar and chili delight.
Lessons learned:
1. Needs more hot sauce
2. Probably should’ve put Steffi’s turkey back in the fridge after she left for the entire weekend leaving it out to defrost.
mmm… Salmonella
OH WAIT I”M NOT DONE
It ummm snowed, so I dug myself onto the roof and took pictures. Heres one.

And heres a picture from the ski trip of Tom hugging a “warning you must be advanced to go down this halfpipe sign.”

mmmm halfpipe warning sign.
Done.
