The first wave of presents (my side of the family) has occurred. Dinner was prime rib, with a nice little mushroom sauce that I put together, to the shocked expressions of my sisters (they remember my cooking). Now everybody else is drinking salted caramel vodka martinis and I’m dragging my stuffed butt to the Chromebook to wish everybody a safe and merry Christmas. God bless you all, and I’ll see you tomorrow.

PS: Half a stick of butter, slice up the mushrooms and saute them on medium heat until they’re nicely browning and producing liquid. Salt, pepper, garlic, onion to taste; then take some beef broth infused with au jus mix, combine, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer once it thickens a little. It’s not difficult, but you have to stir it regularly.
Merry Christmas, Moe. And a happy new year as well
