Great read, cousin. Don’t ask how I found your blog. I wasn’t specifically looking for it. Serendipity. Julie & Julia was a great film. Saw it over the weekend, and even at 10 at night, it made me want to go home and cook even more. I have never personally cooked duck though. I may have to fix that gap in my experience.

Thankfully there are still places where you can get birds in tact. I am happy for you.

And how would the duck you acquired compare to a Long Island Duckling? My mother used to roast them in the oven… and sometimes rotisserie them. As I recall, she kept the duck fat for a pate. That was all in the winter on… Long Island.

Good to know–but maybe not to visit in this weather. Hopefully, they’ll still be there in the fall…
