Good for you! Un grande success! <br />I will have to agree with you on the Descendents. I loved that movie. So much so I've decided to take my son and his girl to Hawaii in June. I remember Klute. I enjoyed it a million years ago. Your description made me want to see it again. <br />BTW your pic of the duck is fantastic!<br />Happy New year Hungry Dog!Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17823045128266781018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778802865313625485.post-26984171487807391082012-01-11T13:34:35.321-08:002012-01-11T13:34:35.321-08:00heehee hooray for enthusiastic snacking! the duck...heehee hooray for enthusiastic snacking! the duck looks so delicious, I'm really getting tempted to buy one of Ms Greenspans' cookbooks, despite our moratorium (gave 50 cookbooks to goodwill last year...)foodhoehttp://foodhoe.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778802865313625485.post-58795537802113386562012-01-10T13:23:10.093-08:002012-01-10T13:23:10.093-08:00Ben: It really didn't create a mess. Dorie'...Ben: It really didn't create a mess. Dorie's method was particularly smart: she suggested crisping the duck in a Dutch oven (high-sided) to contain splatter which seemed to work well. The duck went into the oven on low (250 I think) for about 5 minutes basically just to rest so the oven didn't get dirty at all. <br /><br />I guess I could see how you found the Descendants a bit boring. Not much happens, that's true. And seeming GC in frumpy clothes was indeed a bit of a bummer!Hungry Doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09176958081093165894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778802865313625485.post-72410952031205366232012-01-09T16:10:51.245-08:002012-01-09T16:10:51.245-08:00I'm so impressed that you made duck at home, a...I'm so impressed that you made duck at home, and twice! I've always said I wanted to make duck (because you know my rule is to order duck anytime it's on a restaurant's menu) but I'm always worried it'll make a mess in my oven with all the duck fat rendering process. Did you have a lot of mess? I'm already messing up my new oven that I don't want to push it over the edge so early in its young life.<br /><br />On another note, I have to say I agree with .... LD on her B+ for The Descendants! LOL. Being from Hawaii, I appreciated the authenticity of the location shoot, but I just felt the tone of the film too one note and a bit, well, boring. George Clooney had bursts of acting worthy of an Oscar, but not all the way through. And who decided to put him in those old man's pants!

I don't cook duck very often either (I think I've only managed it twice) because it is rather expensive.<br /><br />Haven't seen Klute but I watched Super8 on a plane trip recently, I thought it was pretty good too. Definitely want to watch The Descendants, if only for Mr. Clooney ;)<br /><br />Best wishes for a fabulous 2012 to you, the husband and Sophie :)shazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06536552327023867787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778802865313625485.post-366399644957348302012-01-06T21:27:59.893-08:002012-01-06T21:27:59.893-08:00Haha, your post makes me almost think I'll lik...Haha, your post makes me almost think I'll like fall this year, even though based on past experience I know I loved it.Independent film reviewshttp://www.jamesweggreview.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778802865313625485.post-47350146788830953862012-01-06T14:20:56.959-08:002012-01-06T14:20:56.959-08:00Zoom: Klute would have been great in the theatres....Zoom: Klute would have been great in the theatres.
