Oh I know, 
I tried with the help board, but to no avail.
Thanks for the compliments though Darla.

How are you uploading these pictures?
Phone should be plenty enough resolution to provide a proper picture.

You can't just DL the Photobucket app on your phone?
you using the [img] links or the thumbnail links when you're copying from photobucket?

I like,
can you purchase pastry dough?
what would you think of wrapping it in filo dough?
do roll it from the middle or from one end?
looks good

Pics are small but from what I see they look great.
I do wish I could see a pic of the inside when they were done.

I'm sure you have a trivet under your pot.. but be careful of a hot pot on your granite countertop... js

Pillsbury crescent rolls come in a sheet that you can probably sub/cheat/get away with.. but it's usually better homemade.

I grabbed the near side of the plastic, then flipped it over the filet. Then laid the plastic back down on the counter. Then I flipped the far end over that, and laid the plastic back down on the counter. Then I flipped the sides, laid plastic back down on the counter. Once it was formed, I rolled it tight in the plastic to get what you saw in the picture that was after that.
That was actually not that bad. None of it was. Just time consuming, and lots of nit picky details.
I used a puff pastry from the freezer section. You could use phyllo (filo, whatever), but then it wouldn't slice as pretty I'm guessing. Seems like it would flake apart on you, even with a really sharp blade.

No shame in making things a little easier on the chef.. It looks delicious. I saw Julia Childs prepare a Wellington on Martha Stewart's show years ago.. Something I've always wanted to try but haven't been brave enough.

This thread was for you then. It isn't hard, like ya'll said...time consuming.
Make one for Fat Tuesday. That'd be a good pre-Lent splurge.

Brains, beauty, and can cook. I'm the total package.
When's your, er, his b-day. And maybe invite me. That would be key.
