I accidentally also bought salted butter the other day and finally found use for this sacrilegious culinary ingredient. I dunno what's been going on with my new sea salt, but it just doesn't seem to be salty enough. I doused this bird with melted salted butter.

This is also because I accidentally opened that beef stock for the corn-pepper risotto the other day. Oh, with rice, just HEAVEN! Roast chicken really is one of those things that take love and patience. Very comforting right now too since the summer nights have been a bit cooler.

The American tradition of neon glasses is made from lead glass. These are very easy to melt in gas fires and are still popular in America.

Colored soda lime glasses are another traditional type of glasses. They come in many glass colors,
