late Christmas presents

Gore · 01-10-2013, 07:45 PM

Two of our secretaries went off to Germany for a couple weeks before Christmas and with my travel I hadn't seen them since Thanksgiving. Last night I made some smoked salmon for them. It must've been some really good salmon at Costco because it was just a notch better than usual. Here's one of the lesser pieces we kept (of course you can see where I did some nibbling

).

I got a call this afternoon that it was the best **** salmon she'd ever had. I never heard her so excited before. It's really nice to give things away when people appreciate them. That's all. Nothing really to see here.

Actually, I only posted this because the picture looked so purdy.

I'm sorry, did you say something? I was too busy looking at that salmon!

I started with two halves and I sliced off the bellies and made candy with them. The salmon came off at 9:00pm. By 10:00pm, I'd eaten both of the bellies.

I'd also nibbled on that piece in the photo. I think I could've eaten it all.

bigabyte · 01-10-2013, 08:43 PM

I have the same problem with the bellies. I always think I'll save half, but that never happens. Most times...the belly even starts disappearing (sometimes completely) before it gets in the house!

Now if I can jsut make that happen with my belly.

Looks fantastic!

chicagokp · 01-10-2013, 09:12 PM

Looks good!

Dirtbuddy · 01-10-2013, 09:16 PM

Nice feeling when you get those kinda responses

caliking · 01-10-2013, 09:47 PM

I love hearing someone say that they enjoyed my cooking, so I know what you mean. Its not the praise for what I made, but just realizing that it is easy to make someone happy with something simple that makes it special.

And that pic is pretty impressive!

I hear ya man. I gave away some of the maple black pepper and the sesame. They loved it, especially the sesame. Thanks again. :thumbup:
