Just made this tonight ..........

After the Farmers market today I felt like wippin' up something good so I went to the meat guy and he set me up with a kick ass rib steak. I had to dress it up so I rubbed in some of my special seasoning (receipt another day)  and  made a quick cream, mushroom, tarragon and cognac sauce.

Here is how the sauce goes.
  • Mince some mushrooms, add some garlic and sauté in butter till brown. Then add the cognac + some fresh tarragon and cook down for 10 more minutes. The mushrooms absorb all the other flavors.
  • Add a bit of heavy cream
  • Separate 6 egg yokes and beat with a small bit of water & heat on medium high while whisking.
  • Add the mushroom mix to the egg yokes.
  • Add some more heavy cream + salt & pepper.
  • Cook it down on medium high while whisking - remember that heavy cream is actually 60% water so it will cook down.
  • When done press through a sieve.
  • Serve it up hot with your steak

The saga of Triangles

Well here is the first test of the triangle oil lamp. It actually came out better than the pic but it was too difficult to get out of the mold ............. soooooo I am going to redo this with a stainless steel mold with slopping sides.

Therefore I have to head back to the welders shop and make it happen. My work never ends.

Making Triangles - I love odd numbers

I want to do something different here. I am tired of making circles and ovals so I am setting out to make some triangles. I went out an scrounged up some hot rolled steel and had it cut and welded. Its pretty thick so it should hold up under 1800F. We shall see.

Here it is in action. Results to follow.


It hot in there !!!!!

Changing our name again ..... When will it ever end

Well I had to change our name from Kepping Glass Works to Girlz Jewelry because lots of girlz buy our jewelry. But in my haste I forgot that we make lots of other stuff like oil lamps. What a pain in the ass. I had to change all my sites back which was a total waste of time.

I should have listened to my wife and never changed it in the first place. I am an idiot - but a smart one? Does that even make sense?
