When I spend the evening at Guy's, I always try to make a nice dinner
for when Carol comes home, because she does most of the cooking at
their place, and she's always pretty tired when she gets off work.

Guy and I were wandering through the store while I tried to decide
what to cook for dinner, when I spied some legs of lamb for something
like $3.79 a pound, partially boned. I swooped and got a four-pounder,
then went and grabbed some red potatoes, carrots, asparagus, and
garlic.

Covered the fatty side with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Surrounded by potatoes and carrots, 425F for 15 minutes, then 350 for
20 minutes per pound. Let it rest while the asparagus roasted (15-20
minutes) and oh. My. God. Best lamb I've ever had in my whole life.

Roasted some garlic along with the roast, then made gravy from the
meat drippings, two heads of roasted garlic, and some chicken stock,
reduced down to the proper thickness.

I'm a superstar in this house right now. :-)
