The Last Meal is a holiday that is truly a personal holy day. It is a time to reflect upon the past year and prepare for the one that will soon arrive.
This year, each member of the family wrote down private confessions, personal sins, and things they wanted to leave behind in 2019 on pieces of paper that helped start the fire for the grill. The combination of briquets, cowboy charcoal, and damp Italian prune and black walnut branches gave the steak for The Last Meal a rich, peppery, smoked flavor.
The Last Meal for The Child: carrots and peas, pasta and cheese casserole.
The Last Meal for The Wife: Dungeness crab.
The Last Meal for TWT: wood-smoked tri-tip steak and Alamos Malbec.
Food was followed by board and card games before "nine o'clock New Year" and viewing Solo: A Star Wars Story.
