I am on Jury Duty, and there isn’t much to say about Card No. 192, so this is as good a time as any to tell you what happened in April. In case you missed it, I posted on Facebook that we are the type of crazy people who throw an fancy party with anContinue reading 192. Grilled Boneless Leg of Lamb
I made brunch! Over the summer (yes, the summer), I hosted some of Mr. Sauce’s friends for a Sunday Brunch. Although, I was wary of this one–baking eggs that were already hard boiled–but this was flat-out yummy. I just wish that I had better pictures of it. To be honest, I just wish I hadContinue reading 181. Gourmet Eggs
I’ve had a hard time wanting to write lately because I don’t want to do much of anything. Maybe because I have been tending to a sick cat all summer. Brian is perpetually congested.

OH. MY. GAWD. It’s been like pulling teeth here, trying to get myself to sit down and write. Meanwhile, Margot’s teeth have literally falling out. Seriously. Teeth falling out.

I want it to be fall so desperately that I am making an apple-pork dish regardless of how hot it is. So, I decided to make this on a weeknight.Continue reading 127. Pork Ribs and Apple Rings
Thank sweet baby Jesus that 2016 is over. I was so over it I was under it–and being suffocated by it. But as a palate-cleanser, and maybe a forecast of what is to come, I bring to you this Moment of Moments: Brian and Margot sharing a midnight kiss!!! I couldn’t have staged this ifContinue reading Happy New Year from Brian & Margot!
It’s been a while. Because I’ve been super-busy. And maybe because everything just went to shit! In the first part of November Brian and Margot got fleas. The fleas then somehow turned into Brian peeing on things. This is basically what my house looked like for a good part of last month: It was aContinue reading Jo Funkhouser’s Punch (1966)
Hellooooooo! I’m back from my Christmas vacation. I hope that you all had a chance to take some time off and spend it with family–regardless if you celebrate Xmas or not. VACATION RULES! My Christmas was great. I received so many lovely presents from my family, but the items of most interest to you allContinue reading Cabbage Crown and 2015 in Review
It’s my 400th post!!!!Well, who the hell ever thought I’d get this far? Not me! For my 400th post, I wanted it to be a very special post. And it IS a very special post! But first, let’s get a little recipe out of the way. This is my Super Summer Sangria. Which I also turnedContinue reading Summer Sangria! (and a very special announcement)
