1. That looks so tasty!

I'm gonna have to go raid the refrigerator now.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. Happy raiding, my dear FoxNewsSucks! It was really good...

And we have more to look forward to.



Thank you for your lovely remarks!

2. Yummy!

What's the occasion?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. Thanks so much, my dear rubbersole!

This is going to sound very strange, but here goes: I've been learning how to shoot macro photos, and I thought that this roast beef would be a great way to try out that setting.

That was the occasion: getting good at macro!

7. You should take a macro picture of an angelfood cake.

Practice makes perfect 🥰!

5. Oooooh! A perfect rib roast.

I’m sure my invitation is around here somewhere. . .

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. I'm sure it is, my dear rsdsharp!

Thanks for your lovely remarks.

6. Did you have Yorkshire pudding? Seriously, that looks scrumptious.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. It was scrumptious, my dear niyad!

Alas, no Yorkshire pudding! I've never had it, but I've heard it's amazing with the roast beef.

New potatoes and asparagus rounded out our meal.

17. Those work very well indeed.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. Oh, good! It'll be great to see you, my dear sprinkleeninow!

Sorry to say, but by the time you arrive, we will have consumed it entirely!

Maybe I'll give you advance notice next time?

[sprinkleeninow]

12. Yes, advanced notice. 😄

It looks mighty luscious, scrumptious.

[Some lovely people in my past of a by-gone era loved to use the word 'scrumptious' descriptive adjective a whole lot. Pennsylvanians mostly. Now I just did.🤭]

Love ya! 💙

On edit: Just noticed a 'scrumptious' up thread! 😉

13. My, Oh My

What an excellent display of your top-quality 'rope-work' with that double-knotted butcher's twine. Nicely done, indeed.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. Thank you so much, my dear wyn borkins!

However, I cannot take credit for the twine. The butcher who prepared the roast for me did that work.

And I paid him for it too!

15. I spent way too much time staring at these

They look so..., juicy!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. Thank you so much, my dear mike_c!

It was indeed juicy and flavorful.

It's not hard to make. Let me know if you'd like the recipe and I'll post it.

[Callalily]

18. You know Peggy, it's really not fair

that you post such scrumptious food photos!

Your roast is done perfectly as is your photo.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. Aw, thank you, my dear Callalily! That was very sweet of you.

Getting a good photo isn't easy. I still have much to learn.
