I was watching the Food Netwrok a few months ago and they had a feature on Bove’s Italian Restaurant and how they made their lasagna. I seached on the internet and found their site and ordered their lasagna noodles, sauce, and the meatballs they use in the lasagna. Boy.....was it good....

I think the price of gasoline is forcing grocers to wait longer between restocking. This is my guess any way. we are seeing the same here in houston.

toasted the buns

But don't burn the wieners!

That's a rule around this house!

Italian Wedding Soup

Do not use ground chicken, use the real deal.

Make mini meatballs of beef and pork.

Do not use spinach, use escarole

I grew up with home made egg noodles- literally- just egg and flour- rolled out with a rolling pin, then rolled up like a jelly roll, sliced thin with a sharp butcher knife, and hands swatted with the back of the knife when we tried to swipe a noodle to eat.

They were left on a newspaper on the table to dry then cooked.

I have not made them for years. I think I need to try using my fresh ground wheat flour.

Italian wedding soup should be as chicken noodle soup, but with meatballs and escarole.

Orzo or noodles can be used, but spinach makes the broth green

Pretty tough to teach people good homemaking skills unless they have a real big inner drive. Forget the health advantages, or the financial savings- It is another layer of the “poor pitiful me, I am such a victim” mentality. blended with don’t expect me to do anything- certainly not something to help myself or my family.

The secret of the souffle is chop the **** out of any ingredients.

That and a copper pot to whip the eggs in.

Ham and cheese? Yum Yum

The Mexican markets make excellent mozarella and farm cheeses similar to ricotta and sell them cheap cheap cheap.

Not the Mexican markets around here, and there are plenty of them. They are heavy on packaged goods, phone cards, money wiring and who knows what else because they ALWAYS make the gringos uncomfortable when they enter.

Gotta rolling pin and a knife? Yer good to go!

You got that right, although I do have an Atlas pasta roller, which I love, especially when I'm making ravioli. But I do love to stick with the rolling pin and knife for lasagna.

Austin, TX is having another no questions asked guns for groceries fiasco again - “$10 will be given for every replica, air-gun or BB gun, $100 dollars for hand and shot guns and $200 dollars for assault rifles.” The only good deal I see is bringing in junior’s busted up bb gun. Other than that, they could get a better deal in a back alley and still it’d be no questions asked.
