We had our avocados, refried beans, queso, salsa, sour cream, and more. This was pretty low key and store bought...I figured I made the pork, I didn't have to try too hard on the rest of it ;) |

How to Paint a Perfect Corner. Like...REALLY.
..as seen here. Taping is Step 2 :) Be sure to put the tape EXACTLY where you want it, because the line will only be as crisp and perfect as your tape. |
Step 4: Paint the corner with the second wall color. In this case, blue/grey. |

Capitol II Theatre - Newton, Iowa
I snapped a quick picture while visiting the Capitol II Theatre in Newton, Iowa last week - the place does show its age in places, but it's really gorgeous and has great potential! Newton is half an hour north of us, and the owners of the theater there are going through many of the same things that our group here in Knoxville is, or will be once we start renovations and the digital conversion at our theater. It's nice to have friends in the industry! :) If you're in the area, stop by and check them out....you might even meet Joy, the family pig that helps with popcorn cleanup after showings! Our project: Grand Theater - Knoxville, Iowa - PO Box 151, Knoxville, Iowa 50138 All donations are tax deductible, and we would LOVE to have your support! :) |

Thanksgivukkah
This year was the first year in over a hundred years that Thanksgiving and the first night of Hanukkah have overlapped, leading the Internet to coin the term Thanksgivukkah! Seeing the opportunity to host a big dinner and loving the concept of being part of a once in a lifetime event, several friends and I decided we'd get together the day after Thanksgiving to commemorate the day. Frying in oil, as is tradition: Potato latkes. |
Pretty delicious..but what's not to love about fried potatoes and onions? |
My twist on an Ina Garten brisket recipe - tender and delicious..falling apart! (I studded mine with slivers of garlic cloves, added a little brandy and red wine to the vegetables as they sauteed, and covered the brisket with chicken stock and water before popping into the oven for 3 1/2 hours) Roasted carrots from the same Dutch oven as the brisket, roasted balsamic red onions, fingerling potatoes with garlic aioli, Brussels sprouts, latkes, several different flavors of rugelach, a rustic pear, apple, and cranberry tart, and a huge challah to break with friends. Wash it down with a little manischewitz, and you've got yourself a feast! There were leftovers....but there weren't THAT many leftovers! The sign of a successful night :) |
