The 5th day of Christmas just might be the perfect time for you to get down with a lovely Italian Christmas tradition. You know, the Christmas Eve feast of Seven Fishes?

I don’t hate guns
I hate what people use guns to do. Guns scare me, but I don't hate them. Today, more than two dozen people were massacred in a(nother) school shooting. Twenty-seven people, including 20 children, woke up today for the last time. I went for a run tonight and thought of the terror that was school today … Continue reading I don’t hate guns
12 Days of Christmas ~ Dining DelSo

Griffin selected this recipe and naturally, I shopped and prepared the dish, omitting the gremolata and skipping the polenta in favor of the more mundane, but crowd … Continue reading Shanked!
Mayhem? Yes. Music? I’m not sure.
Tuesday afternoon I headed back up to Saratoga for another musical experience. Unlike the Allman Brothers or Santana, the bands on the bill were completely new to me. The event, Mayhem Fest, was essentially a Heavy Metal extravaganza, a genre I have very little no experience with, truth be told. But there I was, me … Continue reading Mayhem? Yes. Music?
