What He Said

Clarified herb butter, Sous Vide Cote de Boeuf?  Holy............
When the meat was sliced, nothing bled out. It rested while being
submerged in the clarified butter.  When the meat rests, the juices
stop flowing, and then when the meat is cut, less juice flows out of it.

Am I goin' to see my in-laws?

Spearmint, chives, oregano, thyme

Go sit down, your boy will be fine

Sabatino laid some heirloom arugula, spearmint, and oregano, 

grown from seeds brought from Italy, on us last night.

After reminding him that we weren't worthy, we promptly placed

the pots in our trunk and made for home.  Once there, a quick drink 

from the watering can kept the mint and oregano perky, but the 

extra-peppery arugula from the motherland needed some extra 

attention. I'm keeping a close eye on those plants.   

Grilled chicken breasts with Tino's (my niece's fiancee), sweet, 

rich, smoky barbecue sauce.  I promise I'll return his Tupperware!

What has become our favorite vegetable side dish:  Romaine, 

Radicchio, Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Artichokes, Assorted cured 

Olives, Roasted Peppers, Fresh Mozzerella, Basil, Roasted Garlic,

Balsamic Vinegar and Olive Oil.

Problem:  (on the slate blackboard I had as a child and since 

then painted pink), divide e980 by 128, then erase the upper

half of the entire equation.

Solution.  I love you too.

Skirt Steak

Slice it with or across the grain,

the heavenly flavor remains the same.

Just ask Princeton University Water Polo players.

Just thinking back to last October in Charleston.
