Nothing says Happy New Years like homemade smoked pork product.

***Hey guys! I’m hard at work on my annual NYE dinner party. Check out this post from last year’s party to get you excited about the food porn that is about to be made.*** NYE 2009– I came. I ate.

So.. I made a little food this holiday season…

Just had to tease everyone with every single dish I made for the 2007 holiday season. I am heaps behind on posts (two trips to Melbourne, a chili cookoff and several recipes), thanks to my dissertation, which you will hear more about in the next post.
