joodFor I have made cultured butter. From scratch. Lovely, creamy, rich, slightly salted, cultured butter. European style Plugra. ME. I have done this. Kneel before Zod Jood. MUAHahahahahaha.
Our folks are coming over for dinner tomorrow so we can christen the dining room table, so I'll be baking bread too, as well as roasted brussels sprouts with pine nuts & balsamic vinaigrette, boeuf bourguignon (using an entire bottle of Rosemount's Shiraz) with baby yukon gold potatoes, bacon, leeks, and other goodies, and bruschetta for starters. And more of the Shiraz to drink. And a small, light, green salad.
There will be a crackling fire in the fireplace, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's "Deja Vu" on the stereo, and a freshly scrubbed stove and bathroom.
I've been planning for weeks to take the day off tomorrow to enjoy the preparation.
There are fresh flowers on the table, a new silk table runner and a lovely glass water pitcher I got for cheap at HomeGoods, and we're finally going to take the packing plastic wrap off the seat covers.
This is a fucking BEAUTIFUL house we have. I love it to bits. I can hardly wait to have enough money to finish the living room so we can finally entertain more than two guests at a time.
