Dinner Tonight: Ramps with Linguine
I recently found some ramps through a guy who sells produce to restaurants. $18 a pound. They were very good in a potato gratin. But, I'm not so sure they were $18 a pound good. Maybe $9 a pound good...

$300 budget for dinner for 3! What should I make??
It's sooo easy to spend $300 on a great dinner. Of course, if you have limited access to ingredients then it'll be a little more difficult. A great whiskey will eat up a big chunk of money. If I were you, I'd get to the store early the day before your dinner and see what was available. Pick the best protiens, veggies, etc. and then go home and find your recipes. Then I'd go back to the store for whatever you need to complete the meal. Coook ahead where you can and finish the rest that night.
Cook the Book: 'My Last Supper'
If we're saying anything goes... I think I'd have to take a trip to Rome with my husband and few friends. I'd like a table set up inside the Pantheon so that I could "dine with all the gods". I'd like fried anchovies from L'Angletto (just around the corner). Some bruschetta with goose lard from Armando da Patheon. Some stuffed zucchini flowers from Ditirambo. The olive oil and breads from Myosotis with some of their gnocchi. Saltimboca from L'Angletto. A luscious dessert from Ditirambo, anything will be fine. And wine, wine and more wine...
'Spontaneous' Musical Performed in Mall Food Court
That was absolutely hysterical!
Is the kitchen the easiest place to...
I made my husband cut a hole in the wall so I would be able to see into the living area from the kitchen. When we moved into the house it had a table height bar between the kitchen and living. The opening that the previous owners created was something like you see in a diner, where your order is pushed out for the waiter to pick up. You had to actually lean over to look through the opening. So, old Hub got out the Saws-All and he and a friend expanded the opening up to the ceiling. Now I can see and talk to everyone who is in the living area. Which is a good thing because there's really only room for two people to actually be cooking in our kitchen.
Stormy Day Comfort Food
My husband's chili. Big hunks of beef. Spicy and thick.
Throw a few Fritos in a bowl. Grated cheddar on top of the Fritos. Then ladle on the chili. Maybe a little minced onion on top.
Grown-up Frito Pie.
Yum.
snackies...
Actually, a pint of Guiness pretty much fills me up. If there's one in the fridge I'd usually grab that before I'd eat an actual snack. If there is none, I usually go for a slice of rosemary ham or some old forest salami. I know, not very lady-like, huh?

Dinner Tonight: Ramps with Linguine
Not impressed with this recipe. The breadcrumbs didn't add anything except texture, which is questionable. I will give Gourmet Guy's recipe a shot.

P.S. Paula Deen stinks, the best chef in the world is Gordon Ramsey.

I have to say I LOVE burgers, all kinds of burgers. Cheese, chicken, turkey, pizza, anything! Burgers with onion rings, burgers with bacon, even burgers with mash potatoes like the new one at BK! But this is not a burger. A DONUT? A FRIED EGG? That is disgusting, especially the donut part. Theres some foods you dont mix and this is the best example of that.
