A massage is a treat that we usually only experience on special occasions. Most of us can only afford to have a massage a few times a year or maybe you're lucky enough to get a gift of a massage session. If you're anything like me, you could probably use a massage a lot more often! And even though there are several types of massage, if you have ever been exposed to the benefits of a hot stone massage, then you are probably hooked on this relaxing, stress relieving form of massage. Well don't despair! The good news is that it is not that hard to create you own hot stone massage kit.Taking a sharp pointed knife, stick the slow cooked leg of lamb in the oven in a vertical manner to produce holes, rather than slits. Making 8-10 holes over the entire leg, insert 1/4 clove of garlic into each small opening.The very delicious Chipotle black beans is definitely an appealing side dish with the blend slow cooked leg of lamb the black beans and the red pepper.. The Chipotle Black Beans can also work as a main dish filling for vegetarian burritos. You may also vary the Chipotle black beans recipes based on your own preference.I am a crossword fanatic. So my wonderful hubby went on-line and downloaded 50 challenger level puzzles and bound them into a notebook for me. He used the paper ones that kids use for school reports. He titled it "Carine's Daily Challenge". Then he lit candles all over our bedroom and bath. Followed that by filling up our whirlpool and called me up. While dinner was roasting away, we had an "interlude" followed by a massage! He presented me with my treasure trove slow cooker leg of lamb mind-bogglers as we went downstairs to enjoy yet another course of our Valentine's Day feast.The second day I decided to give the rotisserie a whirl and cook a leg of lamb waitrose. The Broil King gas grill did not fail to impress. I do, however, have two minor complaints regarding the rotisserie. First, you need to light the rotisserie burner with a match or lighter. I'm perplexed as to why Broil King did not include an electric ignition as they have installed the on the other burners. Second, I wish the rotisserie was adjustable to accommodate larger things, such as a whole turkey. I had hopes of cooking my Thanksgiving turkey outside on the rotisserie this year, but any bird over 6 pounds or so gets too close to the rotisserie burner. Overall though, I am quite pleased with the rotisserie. It is solid and turns evenly. The rotisserie burner is well-powered and capable of proper searing.Ray's Grill.
