i’m just helping out with the appetizer for Christmas. I’m making bacon jam, to go with a cheese plate. I also got some spiced cranberries from The Stand.
Mom always makes a ham, and chutney to go with. There will be mashed potatoes with sour cream whipped in. Some salads, and plenty of homemade desserts.
I refuse to do a standing rib roast because it’s never as good as prime rib at a restaurant that does it right. So, we go Thursday night to The Palm in Philly to get Prime Rib. The Philly Palm has a much more civilized crowd than the ones in NYC and the waiters tend to be muy caliente.
Brooklyn Museum has lots of “community outreach educational programs” which don’t seem to focus on their collections. Their “shows” are very silly, superficial — like the Rock Star Photographs exhibition recently. I don’t like their “feminist art”, i.e. Judy Holliday’s dinner party. The latest and greatest dumbfest is a reality show they are sponsoring on some TV channel on becoming an artist, ala Top Chef.
How about starting with their collection? Hello? It has a world class Egyptian art collection, really excellent American painting collection, etc. The silliness started with the current director Lehman and his exhibition of adolescents called “Sensations” the Saatchi collection, with the Elephant shit Madonna.
Judy Chicago. And yeah, she sucks.

lechacal –
The dried onions come out of a small can (I forget the brand) with a pop top. One more comment like that and we’ll be revoking your Flyover card.
Lech, you are liberal.
