I got a new cookbook when I turned 20, back in March. It's Julia Child's
Mastering the Art of French Cooking. Tonight I used it for the first time. I made Pâté de Canard en Croûte, but without the crust..I'm not sure what that translates to in French, though. I was TERRIFIED of the whole removing the bones from the duck, but I did it, and hubby plus a few frieneds really seemed to enjoy it. I doubt I'll ever make it again, though. It was a great learning experience, no matter how hard it was for me.
Today and tonight Ivan has been rough. Usually he's been asleep for about 2 hours by now, but he's been up and down fussing all night. He's teething, but won't use a teething ring, pacifier, or anything...I hate it for him, because I know he's in so much pain, but Orajel and Tylenol aren't doing anything for the poor guy. I know he's hurting, but I can only take so much. I'm exhausted to start with, and he just cries and cries and cries...I can't do it anymore.
I think you just drop the "en Croûte" but I'm not sure. The duck was delish honey, thank you. His teeth will all be in before you know it. No worries.
