I don't eat a whole lot of seafood. I mean, I obviously eat sushi whenever I can get my hands on it, and I make that Shrimp Saffron Linguine at least once a month...but other than that, the only thing I really do is bake a solo piece of salmon whenever Kendrick's away for the evening.
On New Year's Eve, we headed back to our place for Slow-Cooked BBQ Pork paired with baked beans, potato salad, and coleslaw.
This is the first time I've made my Aunt Jo-Anne's famous (at least in our family) baked beans in a slow-cooker. Highly. Recommended.
Look for artichokes that are heavy for their size, with tightly-packed leaves and no bruises or discolorations. To prepare, first rinse off the artichoke and then cut off all but about 5mm of the stem...
For a light (and yet beautifully festive) holiday cocktail, just pour a little cranberry vodka (or homemade cranberry-orange vodka) over ice, add a few splashes of soda water, and garnish with sugared cranberries...
