Breakfast for dinner- pulled smoked pork in sage pesto and bacon fat with egg yolk ravioli. Yolk all runny and silky.

Cooked some of the lamb, leek and feta ravioli from yesterday. Served in a reduction of grand cru sauternes and bacon stock with a little butter. Garnished with arugula pesto.

Two today - realized I have posted no pics of the innards of any of the ravioli. So here is one of the latest, leeks, smoked lamb shank and feta ravioli, just before I closed them up. Will cook some tomorrow. Plus arugula pesto - arugula, toasted pine nuts, pecorino romano, garlic and extra...

Nowhere there does it say the people who suffered only did so because of their race. What it says is neither I or a friend, when both openly armed and breaking the law, were not harassed, in large part due to our apparent race (my friend with the AK is actually part native american but passes...

I never said white people didn't ever get fucked with by cops. I know too many people who have been. But the proportional differences between whites and non-whites getting fucked with, beaten or killed are huge. That is an empirical fact. And it is not proportionate to the differences in...

Dude, it isn't like cops in Baltimore weren't shooting black people all the time back then. They were. I knew black people who were. So yes, I am saying race was one of the main determining factors, definitely. Shit man, I walked around with a rusty hatchet on my belt, sometimes threatening...

If this were really true, why hasn't a SINGLE Open Carry lunatic been shot in Texas. Cuz they're white. Or a friend of mine who used to drive around Baltimore on his Harley with an AK across his back? Cuz he's white. And when I WAS a criminal in Baltimore in the '80s- a very violent time...

related issue, most cops no longer live where they police. For example most Baltimore City cops live one county or more away. So of course they aren't representative of the community or even a part of it.

He's coming along great in some ways, but still a monster in others. When I'm around his behavior is perfect. But when I'm not here he is still such a monster I have to keep him crated. Last time i left him out of his crate he ate 1/4 of a box of sugar maple wood for my smoker. But except for...

If I was cooking for anyone but me, the servings would be bigger. But I like cooking as much as I like eating, so to avoid getting even fatter (I am pudgy as hell already) I've been doing smaller portions. Word to the wise- don't buy a cheap extruder. Was trying to make fusilli and my new...

Fried gruyere and smoked game hen ravioli in sherry nutmeg cream

My extruder came. It's a cheap manual one, so it was a bit of a pain in the ass to use, but I cranked out some whole wheat rigatoni. Here it is with smoked chicken in cream sage pesto. The rigatoni die cutter is narrower than standard or I'd have stuffed them.

And now the rest from the smoker- balsamic and tarragon lamb shanks; marsala chicken breast; and tomatoes and both red and black plums.

First out of the smoker today, a madeira brine-injected cornish game hen. Most of it is destined for ravioli. But it is tempting to just eat it cuz its tasty.

Hand-cut chili and black pepper pappardelle in parsnip puree & cream (parsnips cooked sous vide in garlic butter).

Some more mushroom ragout, but modified with the addition of gorgonzola and wilted arugula. Tastier this way. News on the potential restaurant/B & B - going to Denver in early October to look at properties with my potential business partner. And we have some very interested investors. And...

Tonight, fettuccine with spinach in a gorgonzola and bacon cream. EDIT: And since I still had some of the chèvre and pork ravioli left, I fried some of em up in extra virgin, tossed them in beurre noisette, and garnished with some of the sage pesto.

That sucks. Happy birthday. It's my older sister's today, too.

More of the ravioli I made yesterday (chèvre and smoked pork) in a simple alfredo (cream, asiago, black pepper, garnished with a little basil).
