Aaron - yep, FINAL post must have a title, ingredient list, and max 2 pics. Make sure POL and BEER are in there! SalsaLady's post is a good guide to follow.

Aaron, post as many pics as you like. Make sure the PoL (Proof of Life) is in there somewhere. Then make a final post that's titled and only has two pictures... and then beer me a beer.

Prost!

If it was just this for the final post I wouldn't have been given so much grief on mine. Boss moved my ingredients over to my final post then had me put description on it. No big deal, just a couple extra minutes oftyping. Not to sound like a B, but if it's that big of a deal then it should go for all. Just saying. That's the reason for the question.

Yes. You're right Habs. Final post is titled, a list of ingreeds, and two pics. You're well on your way to making a crown.
 
Something crazy happened.

I think I threw away my Sillyband.

Okay, Geeme is back in the TD!

We'll start with roast pork. Slather that baby, then slap it in the oven.

When that's done, set it aside and use the roasting pan to make a nice little topping. Use your favorite yellow mushrooms to accentuate the mustard.

In the meantime, fry up some sweet potatoe pancakes.
