thanksgiving feasting

my family really knows the definition of FEASTING. thanksgiving dinner was filet mignon, seared scallops and sweet peas. my family has never really loved eating turkey, the leftovers last way too long.=P friday was dimsum with uncle william and uncle raymond's families....mmmm....ha gow. saturday i cooked a prime rib roast for diana's potluck - prepared with salt, fresh pepper, olive oil, inserted slivers of garlic within the roast and lots of fresh thyme. turned out perfectly! i even had au jus! :D sunday i brought home the other half of the prime rib roast (uncooked- since i bought a huge 16 pound roast from costco and cut it in half to save some for my family) . we were going to wait to cook it later, but then decided we didn't want to wait, so i cooked about 4 pounds of the roast for my family. it didn't turn out as good as the first one however since i didn't have a convection oven. therefore i'm going to bring the last 4 lbs to hunny's house so i can use his wonderful convection oven. hehe. here's a pic of the filet and scallops. another pic of the prime rib later on.
