Been working my tail off at home for the last several days - Purim (sorta the Jewish equivalent of Halloween) is this week, and it is my busiest time of the year.

So, now for a brief (very brief) respite, and a nice homemade meat sauce - ground sirloin, plum tomatoes, lotsa garlic, minimal spices, and I'm off to cook some pasta for the waiting sauce.

Actually, it should be "this morning's dinner" - it's just after 4:30am here in Vitelli territory!

If I rest, I rust...but Rust Never Sleeps! wink

"For me, there's only my wife..."

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"

"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"

"It was a grass harp... And we listened."

"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
