Thick or thin spread?

Not too thick not too thin but on thickly buttered toast.

Made a huge batch of Clam Chowder from a recipe my friends father gave to me years ago, he begged it off from a guy in a seafood restaraunt long ago. Secret ingredient is Cheeze Whiz. Didn't sound too good to me when I first heard of it, but it's soo good, only thing that could make it better is some crumbled bacon on top.

We're celebrating Christmas tonight due to my sister's work-schedule, so I'm making lasagna and baked ricotta. May post pics later.

We celebrate today and tomorrow. Today we celebrate the German Christmas and tomorrow the American Christmas.

Made a Beef Wellington tonight. Flavor and temp was spot on, but I made my knife marks a lil too deep in the puff pastry so it split on the top. Oh well it tasted great.

We're doing our week long (or longer) traditional celebration with a huge amount of home made Middle Eastern and meze food.

Had Afghan Aushak again last night - see below for photo (not of my actual meal as I was too busy gobbling that up, but mine looked pretty damned close). If you haven't tried it and get a chance to do so, don't pass up on the opportunity.

Okay, fess up. What is it made of?

Aushak are an Afghan version of dumplings, usually filled with leeks, onions, or chives. It's served with creamy garlic yogurt and a hearty tomato-based meat or lentil sauce and sprinkled with dried mint. It might not sound like much but when combined it is incredible.

One of the things I love about winter is the food. Especially the soups. In the last 2 weeks, my fantastic wife has made the following:

• Bacon, potato and leek
• Minestone
• Pea and ham

Tortillas are, Tor Tillas. Gotta love this place!

I like Laksa but I think some of these have gone too far:

'Way better than it sounds': The laksa-inspired dishes selling out in Darwin

From laksa cheesecake to toasties and deep fried ice cream, Darwin's annual laksa festival has something for all palettes. And while it might sound "weird", those cooking up a storm promise "it tastes way better than it sounds".
