jenn_unpluggedMy husband is about to go to Israel on business. Israel is about to go to war with Lebanon. Should I be concerned about this?
I just realized that I will be home exactly 6 days between tomorrow and August 19. 0_0 My poor kitties. *points to icon*
I am getting better and better at cooking Italian every day. I have been trying a lot of new things since we got back from Italy, incorporating the things I learned in our cooking class. Tuesday night, it was Pasta alla Norma (tomato sauce with eggplant and cheese) and tiramisu. Last night it was an incredibly heavenly caponata and cacio e pepe with homemade pasta (basically just cheese and pepper over pasta). I've been making pasta for years, but last night's batch was about as good as I've ever made it. And then I had to go and screw it up by rolling it out too thin ! *sigh* Tonight it will be marinated fresh anchovies with carmelized onions and raisins (assuming I can get the fishmonger to clean the fish for me because ew) and a seafood risotto. We had a seafood risotto during our cooking classes last week, and I was amazed that I like my version better!
