For those of you that will be celebrating, I hope you receive a blessing. If I survive the big Easter dinner I'm cooking on Sunday, I will then enjoy a very restful week of vacation! Enjoy, folks!

Blessings of Easter to all and happy Purim for the Jewish faith.

A very Happy Easter to all of you, too. Doing a totally non-traditional dinner. Judy really doesn't like ham or lamb so I'm doing up a boneless prime rib roast (accompanied by a really great young Cab - yum). Our butcher gave me some very specific instructions for cooking these roasts a few years ago, and we've been doing it his way ever since with fabulous results. You season the roast if you want with some salt and pepper (he doesn't, so I don't). Put it into a high sided cast iron skillet or dutch oven, and then into a preheated 500* oven for 5 min. per pound (but nevcer more than 30 min.). Turn the oven to warm (he said about 200*) and just let it sit for at least two hours. Never open the door until you take the roast out - ever. He said he's left roasts in up to four hours and they always come out rare and juicy. Let it sit for about twenty minutes, slice and eat.

Same at ya, Georgie. Dunno what we're having for Easter dinner.... as usual, I'm just supposed to offer multiple choices for pairings. Just call me Mushroom.
