And my bite feels... changed. Not bad, yet, not worse or better or... anything. Just rather decisively different. We'll see, long-term, how it is. At least until after the novocaine wears off. I'm still mildly dizzy from the work and the pain killers, so am easily depressed.

But this weekend, I discovered that I have a few warning signs going with depression stuff, so I did some stuff, deliberately, to try and forestall it. The three of us went swimming and it was a wild success with Jet. That was cool. I made individual Beef Wellingtons on Saturday and they came out really well. Yay!

Ooo! Ooo! Ooo!

That sounds wonderful! Yeah... duxelles, the way I was taught, is just shallots and mushrooms sauteed in butter, then doused with cream and reduced to a paste. So it's very close!

I think we would have liked it your way better, without the pate. I just had always been caught by the written description of a Beef Wellington, and had to try it traditionally, first.
