This is mostly for cynjen, lisew, cosmic, dumbphilomel, Johnny (who does not read this journal, and can only be edified on Tuesday) and Mindy (who Johnny is usually in the process of edifying and I want no part of that process. This is also so we can all make fun of deathpixie because she's a dirty filthy veggo.

I'm thinking of doing a roast leg of lamb on Sunday for Easter. I don't really celebrate dead messiah on a stick day, but I do like excuses to stay home and cook. Thus, you're all invited. I say this with a certain wariness, since I have never made lamb before, and it could be all kinds of suck. However, I also am not going to eat 6lbs of lamb on my own, so I will feed minions.

Several questions. Pipe up if you want to come. Also, any suggestions for accompanying food is offered. Does lamb dictate specific side dishes? As well, I have a couple of marinade options, but does anyone with lamb roast experience have any suggestions/favs?

I would also like to point out that I have no ethical issues eating a baby animal. I don't have ethical issues against cannibalism, when you get right down to it. In my opinion, the smaller and cuter the thing is, the more likely it should be deep fried!

Dirty filthy veggo.
