The drive home tonight across the Golden Gate Bridge was beyond beautiful. I’ve been lucky enough to experience so many different versions of it, but tonight really stood out. Driving through the city in daylight, the fog could be seen moving west to east across the bay through the straight. Then on the bridge, completely socked in, it’s almost darkness. Once across, immediately back into daylight while more fog pours over the headlands.

You guys don't eat lamb? Hell, I even like mutton, which many consider to be ultra shitty lamb.

If cooked correctly it all rules. All of it.

I don’t know if they roasted it, but the best people I’ve ever known served lamb at Xmas.

I think chicken goes best with korma. For lamb you want vindaloo, rogan josh or saag.
