01/06/12 And More Pain + Duck

Yes I'm suffering even more pain than before. Like seriously. I was moving my laptop a few hours ago and I was just about to cry from the pain shooting out of my back. I'm still in pain right now, just to give you a perspective. I seriously think I pulled something.

But meh that's just one part of my day. I proceeded to have a scorching hot shower (would have soaked but ran out of hot water about 5 minutes in). I'd like to think that the heat had a beneficial effect on my back. I'm still in pain at the present but that's a different issue. Well not something that I was originally thinking of.

Anyway back to the second part of what I was talking about. I made a really tasty duck. I must say that duck in itself is amazingly fatty for such a small animal. I'm almost scared to think of what would happen should I have wanted to try my hand at cooking goose or swan. Hell the amount of oil from those birds would probably drown anything else I wanted to make.

But yeah. I made a duck tonight. A delicious roast duck. I started with 4 long sprigs of home grown rosemary, and then followed a recipe I saw online. Scored the skin, salted and peppered and stuffed the cavity with half an onion soaked in Pinot Grigio.

After roasting for a few hours, the finished product was quite divine :)
