Good morning Charles and David! I trust your weekend has been fun!
We are enjoying a nice break in the weather here, a nice cool front has moved in making it ideal weather for being outside in the sun.
I'm grilling a duck at the moment, with the skin removed to reduce the fat.
What are you having for lunch?
Cheers!
Hello Om - the limey is luckier than I am today as he is still mid morning when in Oz it is nearly 8:PM - you must be starting Sunday over there - nice to have a kind of "indian summer" day to charge up your batteries. (grilled duck mmmmm nothing better - especially with a good sauce and wild mushrooms!) - have a great day!

Hmmmm... Thanks for the mushroom sauce suggestion. That's a good idea! :-)
I had done a lemon marinade and was just going to serve it with a side of mushrooms and brocolli done with dill.
Cheers! -- Om.

OMG it doesn't get any better! - (My wife just said to say thank you as she's going to give it a shot for our family lunch for next Sunday) Have fun with the rest of your weekend, Om!

What are you doing up at this ungodly hour, or have you not yet been to bed?

We were planning to have guests for lunch, but as I told our housekeeper, I would much prefer roast lamb today as guests can be so tough! ;o)
Does your housekeeper knock softly on your bedroom door in the morning to present you with a freshly ironed newspaper and a cup of tea?
I'm spared that debatable delight as I am up and out long before dear Joyce arrives; we love her dearly and she has been with us a very long time, but she is not possessed of the face and figure of one's dreams!
However, her daughter is an altogether different kettle of fish, but we only see when she pops round to help Mum on high days and holidays!! ;o)

Seems like her daughter may offer a debatable delight or two then? (at least Joyce doesn't seem the type to write a 'tell all' book one day about the goings on in the 'Ponsonby' household!)

I work night shifts now, so this is pretty much my routine. It helps during the workweek to keep it up somewhat over weekends.

Why would not your guests appreciate roast lamb??? It's excellent with a good garlic marinade!

Ok, that was a "whooshing" sound going over my head the first time. ;-)

I just got it as well. How subtle
Very.... <lol> But those are often the best kind. The ones that make you do a double take!
Like this one:
What has 4 legs and 1 arm?
A happy Pitt bull.

ARGHHHHH! Ducks are not dumb, unthinking birds. They mate for life, mourn loss'es, and are very loyal. How can you rescue cats, dogs, and other wildlife, but kill and eat ducks or my favorites, geese? Do you *rescue* them for your dinner table?

I buy my duck from the grocery store where they are RAISED for food. I don't take wild ducks. :-P
Geeze!
Eating store bought duck where that's what they are raised for is no different than eating chicken or beef.
I'm not a vegetarian, and I don't intend to become one!
Besides, wild duck sucks. It's not worth the effort, nor the guilt. -- Om.
