We celebrated our annual Big Lebowski viewing this weekend. We pureed raw bacon and added it to rich ground beef from Clancy's, then placed our patties on a burger platter that hasn't seen use in many years.  I found the cheery red platter hanging in my Aunt Hazel's basement: a salute to summer in the 50s and 60s and charcoal, cold beers, burned burgers, and nylon lawn chairs that left criss-cross patterns on guests' thighs.
