Pics under cuts.
I was gifted with Wrebbit's Notre-Dame de Paris Cathedral 3D Puzzle. I started it yesterday after work, worked on it till midnight, then finished it up today from between 11am and 5pm. I probably won't be able to keep it up for long, as I'm sure the kitties would happily volunteer to love and nom on the foam pieces.
While looking for online images of the puzzle, I found this. Now you too can put the 3-D puzzle together...on your computer.
The pieces
Sorted by color themes
Some done, others in progress
All panels complete - time to assemble
Completed
After finishing the puzzle, I went and butchered my first beef tenderloin. We had it for dinner along with some very buttery mashed potatoes and some teriyaki-flavored stir-fried veggies. I over cooked the onions and worried that they would taste burnt, but instead they caramelized nicely and melded perfectly with the flavors.
Eileen gave me the Wusthof to cut with, and a glass of the Zombie alcoholic drink.
After placing on the not-quite-large-enough cutting board
The top after butchering
The bottom after butchering, with just enough marbling
The fillets, 7 regular, 4 from the head
