Fair Day, Part 2

Yes, it's Tuesday already. Oooops. Too busy having a good time with friends and family. So here is what is left of the two pork shoulders!



Both were a hit. So if you are looking for something different to do with pork shoulder, marinate it in a 50/50 mix of soy sauce and ginger ale. The flavor is different and it was really juicy. Good, good stuff.

The parade day really is one of my favorite days of the year. The weather has always been good and the company is fantastic. As much as people seem to be amazed at the amount of work to get these gatherings together (you got up and start cooking at what time? and holy crap, the house is actually clean!), few things in life bring me greater joy than being able to share a good meal with my family and friends. Anybody that crafts anything, whether it is a piece of software, a novel, a cabinet, or a hunk of meat, knows that a little part of your heart and soul goes into whatever it is you are making. To be able to share that with the people close to you is truly a blessing.
