Epicurious' Second coming

I went over to Chris' house again. He made bacon brule again. I cried again. This time the addition of pink Hawaiian sea salt absolutely completed the pairing of flavors between the creamy vanilla custard and the savory bacon. The mildness of the sea salt was perfect. They should have sent a poet.

Bacon Brule

Yes, its Bacon Creme Brule. Yes it is better than anything you have ever tasted in your life, no matter what you have tasted this is better. No, neither your mother nor your grandmother have ever in their lives produced anything that is this wonderful, including you.

All at ISO 800 with my 50mm f/1.4 shutter speeds vary from 1/125 to 1/300

New York Strip

New York Strip. This was also part of the most decadent meal I will ever eat. Pictured is the Chef, Chris Curtis, and his New York Strip, which came as a roast, something I have never seen before. It is seasoned with magical salt which I am convinced is derived from the tears of Unicorns.

butternut squash rissoto with sage butter scallops

I did not make these, although I did eat them, and they did change my life. They were among the first courses of the most decadent meal I will ever eat. The sweet butternut squash risotto, paired with suculent tender scallops in a sage butter will forever be the best serving of scallops to ever grace my lips

Senior Photo

I shot a senior picture for one of the students at church last week, just some simple portraits. I quite enjoyed the use of my old 50mm 1.4 on this one, such wonderful depth of feild. Thanks John.

More Heat

The next batch of peppers are up on the pepper tree. These little guys are hotter and blacker than their departed brothers. I had to take a shot before we took them off the tree. I though I would try a black background this time, I like the low key affect, its makes the contrast of the water on the peppers come out very nicely.
