grandiose sang gratis!!

thanks rashers! thanks rupan! was a last minute take-out call, kinda my quick decision resort of sorts. had no idea you were already closed. but, you offering to make me a sandwich even though being closed really touched me. yer a good man rupan, thank you for doing this for me! and, thanks for the freebie (i really appreciate that)! well, i did run as fast as i could, all the while was still in disbelief (didn’t know if i was running for the great eats, or wanting to get there before he changed his mind)! two kinds of pork, curried taters, pickled red onions, and cilantro, on a toasted bun! the proverbial pics y’all… gratis!

this IS NOT a baseball blog!*

*disclaimer

But, I do love the sport, and especially my TO Blue Jays, and, the American League East in particular! I can’t believe its competitiveness, and wanna give y’all an insight to what’s going on right now… the fourth place team (NY Yankees) are currently 76-55 playing .539 ball. This puts them in second place in any other division in the Majors. Yet, in the AL East, they sit in fourth… but, here’s the thing… they still have a legit chance to win the division! All other division leaders appear a lock to win (w/the NL West being a possible exception; and that’s dubious). MLB‘s nail-biting excitement is right here in my backyard! My Jays rock! My AL East rocks… I rock too, lol!

… back to my regular bullshit blogging program!

everything but the kitchen sink lasagna

the whole nine yards lasagna… was a coin flip, both blogposts work/rock! not one to be shy w/leftovers… #foodforafrigginweek! meat sauce is my most complicated, time involved, meatsaucemakingendeavourever. oxtail and veal are the stars of this show… took hours of low ‘n slow-cooking perfection. puts my awesome lasagna bolognese to shame, it’s THAT good! sheets are Italian (of course), these are the thick-ass ones w/wavy ridges, made from durum wheat semolina (of course, again). five cheeses – don’t ask, and went w/a chianti reserva to seal the deal! mangia tutti!

megamofodeepdishlasagna! now, that’s a blogpost folks!
