Suggested Dining

If you're anything like me, you made chicken stock this weekend. Good move! You know what that means, though, right? Risotto.

And if you're anything like me, you wrote a blog post about gravy and had it on the brain and made much-much-much-too-much of it, but you're all out of carriers. (It's gauche to eat straight gravy; much like brioche is to butter, one needs a delivery vehicle to really partake of gravy.) There is an excellent answer to this problem: Root Vegetable Pie. Make it for Pi Day (3/14)! I can't say it enough: Root Vegetable Pie! Find your favorite tubers and get going! Top it with mushroom gravy. Eat it for days, or feed your 37 closest friends simultaneously.

Alright, fine: chicken stock also means some kind of soup, but I get to choose what kind, so there!

3/6 -- The How To section is making me very happy. And the latest post contains something new and different: pictures! I'm of mixed feelings about this. If you have opinions -- if you like them, say, or feel they have no place on a food blog -- for the love of god, say so somewhere! Email me, post a comment, something!

Seasonalia

I'm inclined to believe this time of the year is the optimum time for hearty peasant fare. Spaghetti carbonara, potato and leek soup, posole, long roasted meats, assorted stews, hearth bread, and all the other delicious things you can make from relatively non-fresh or non-seasonal ingredients. (It's always the right season for charcuterie.) Penne all'arrabiata is almost enough to sustain me to summer on its own.

Find it!

...you're reading this. Hey, what would a blog be without a section for Generally Grumpy Opinions, Telling People They are Wrong, and nattering about non-food-things?

Wait. Dont answer that question. Just read this too, eh? I wrote it for you...

Worst. Thing. Ever.

DateSunday, November 11, 2007 at 11:30PM

Let's get something straight: I'm a pretty happy guy. I like the world, and see a lot of good in it. Sure, I have my frustrations; US foreign policy, for instance, or America's hyper-privilaged view of gasoline. Maintaining a positive attitude, even when these frustrations approach $100 a barrel, has never been too hard for me.

 But even I have my limits: today, after a woeful stretch of neglect, I logged into my dear dusty blog to discover spam adds left as blog comments! Seriously! Not only that, some comments have been left as responses to references -- which, since it isn't a true comment, I can't readily delete (I'll have to go through my host's administrative network to get the damn thing purged.) I'm deleting as many of them as I can as soon as I finish this post; leaving them up for peer review would simply let the add win, and I'm not up for that. This might be the stupidest thing I've heard of since forwarded spam chain text messages (oh yes, I kid you not!). Back me up here, people: apocalypse, or just one more nail in the coffin of America's mind?
