Not Sam
It is a bunch of different roasts, one of them is very blonde. This is a blend I made for Xmas only, but it is composed mostly of a blend I sell, which is Costa Rican and Brazil. There is also some Jamaican, Haitian and Sumatran in this one. Nothing is roasted past first crack. Note that where it looks really light this is a reflection from the bowl.

Is the wonton made from a kind of dough?
the wonton wrapper: http://chinesefood.about.com/od/dimsumw ... rapper.htm - they are hard to make since they have to be rolled out so thin and they disintegrate with too much handling. The filling is shrimp, carrot, cabbage, sprouts, spices, cilantro. They were constructed then steamed then sauced.

I should have taken a picture of the Christmas Prime Rib from Costco.
Last year the Costco in Northern California ran out of Prime so I purchased Choice and it was good but this time we were home and I purchased the Prime and I have to tell you that was the best piece of beef we have ever eaten.
I purchased a pricey instant read thermometer and was able to get instant readings from end to middle to end so I could judge how the roast would be for folks who don't care for rare as much as I do.

That sounds really yummy. I just got some Ethiopian delivered today. Will be roasting again this weekend can't wait. Will roast it so the second crack happens just as cooling starts.
Life is short drink good coffee.

Why Your Pasta Water Boils Over
We've all done it: you put the pasta on to boil, turn your back for a few minutes to wipe off the counter or check the mail, and suddenly you hear that forebodeing hissing sound of water boiling over... You really have only yourself to blame.
So, why does it happen? And how can you stop it from happening? LINK

dumplings I made for Hunan Dumplings, a recipe I found out was Montrealais (from Montreal). or this I ground my own pork loin, then marinated that overnight then filled and sealed the wontons. They are served with a spicy peanut sauce. Huge hit, although with the other things it was served with (from-scratch Hot and Sour Soup and General Tao's Chicken) it was just a good course
