We always have prime rib for Christmas and that’s no different this year. We have used many recipes over the years. I think we used Paula Deen’s recipe the first year and it was delicious. But the recipe is kind of scary because you have to cook it at 500 degrees for one hour and then turn off the oven and leave it in there for two hours without opening the oven door. We didn’t do that the next time.

New Year, new you. Probably not. Let’s be real: you are not going to change much in the next year. I know this because I’m ordained, God likes me a lot and I’m still the same old person I was last year at this time. Okay, maybe I stretched the God likes me a whole lot part but I am ordained and that has to count for something, right?
