...took tweezers to a duck's ass. Whodda thunk ducks had feathers. I tell ya.



So confession part dos: having never cooked duck before, I decided to practice and bought two. Ducks, I know now, are not a bit like chickens. The aforementioned feathers being the first notable difference. Did I get a not completely cleaned duck or are they so horribly difficult to de-featherize that a few of the shafts skins still remain? I don't know. I feel...undereducated. That duck better be damn tasty for what I just subjected my tweezers to. I ran my hand over the carcass and anything that poked me got pulled. I'm all for poking. But not from a duck.



Wish me luck!



EDIT: The duck received The Big Guy stamp of approval with a "Damn tasty! Yahoo!" modifier thrown in for good measure. I think we're a go.

Not incredibly visible and not all of it. Not bad for a slow speed slide of one vehicle into another vehicle (couple of cars pushing into ours). The airbags didn't go off and that alone saved us thousands. But the real Preciousss, the Big Guy, is alive and well and that's all I give a fat damn about. Merry Christmas to me!
