I hit the neighborhood farmer's market after work and got all the fixin's for dinner...
 1 lb of freshly made Gnocchi (the olive, pesto, and pasta vendor that makes everything fresh in the morning knows us and gave me a great discount) -
to be gently cooked in an local sourced organic Heirloom tomato/garlic/shallot/and basil sauce (currently being made by made by moi)-
served with with humanely locally raised, organically fed applewood smoked bacon, (another regular vender with a local free-range/open yard ranch that practices humane slaughter) soon to be roasted in a 350 oven for 25 minutes in pepper and brown sugar...
Topped with freshly grated Spanish Estero del Oro (asiago type) cheese from the Farmer's Market cheese monger.

Dinner will be ready in about an hour, after the tomatoes cook down, the sauce gets strained, then put back on the burner to cook the gnoochi [sic] in.

Say the magic phrase, and we might share...


(MMMM, mmm, mmm.)

 

It's almost parody!    
Barack Hussein Obama....MMMM MMMMM MMMM!   

Meh, she can keep it.  I hate Gnocchi.  It's just pasty lumps of potato goo.

Appropos of nothing, but just from the lounge, I had to put this somewhere:

2. My wonderful goggie woo woo'd for the FIRST time last night when he saw me 
 bouncing on his front feet calling Mom to let me know I was home it was awsome. Never ever made a sound before.

 

What a piece of work.

We're having pepperoni pizza for dinner tonight.

My MIL made a gnocchi salad that was awesome, I think it was Rachel Ray's no potato salad.

[Rebel]

Dinner to me is slapping a big 'ole chunk of meat on the grill. I don't do all that fancy cookin'.

[Chris_]

It's Friday... that means steak and potatoes.

[Karin]

In Northern New York, that means pizza and wings. 

How do you organically feed a bacon, anyway? 

[delilahmused]

Oh, me too!!! Except the Gnocchi, which sucks. And the sauce. I'm just having the tomatoes. They're just the garden variety, though. I know because I picked them earlier this morning. And the bacon, not having that either and not sure why I'd want to make what's basically a fancy spaghetti with it anyway. But I am having locally grown free range (well free-waddle cuz meat birds don't really travel fast) chicken. I've been on a breaking their neck and then slicing their jugular phase lately instead of shooting them because they seem to bleed out better. Used to creep me out to break their necks but it is quick and humane. At first I made the mistake of trying to twist their necks but you can twist a chicken neck around a couple times before the damn thing dies. Meat birds are so stupid, I doubt they feel their necks being twisted anyway.

The only thing really homemade is my bourbon barbecue sauce because I freaking hate the sweet ones at the store and that ucky liquid smoke flavor. Smells icky when it's grilling, too. I do use local organic honey in it because my son raises bees and he puts some in tiny jars that my granddaughter sells (well usually only to relatives...how can you not buy from your granddaughter). No cheese except the safeway brand grated cheddar in my salad. Unless I make cole slaw instead. Or potato salad, except I'd have to make some mayo cuz I don't have any Best Foods and I don't like any other brands. I hate pretentious food. Never tastes as good as the high falutin description anyway. I might just go with burgers. Safeway had those big chubs on sale last week.

I notice they only brag about their food when they're having something organic that no one's ever heard of. That's the one thing I kinda liked about Hippywife. She hardly ever made pretentious food. But Wild Bill always seemed like a meat and potatoes guy.

I think I may grill a hunk of organically-grown, humanely-slaughtered whitetail deer.

Really, unless DUmmy haele is a mole, making fun of the pretentiousness that DUmbasses love to ignorantly flaunt, she sounds like a good candidate to take DUmmy cali's old job at the $25-a-pot tea house. That would be Pretentious Pleasures, up there in East Hardwick, VT. Just tell her to bring along a can of Raid, and to shoo the chickens off the table before placing the silverware.

McDonalds double cheeseburger and a large vanilla iced coffee--I can stay up late since it's Friday so coffee is ok for supper.

[JohnnyReb]

I'm having ribs bought at the ever evil WAL-MART, organically grown corn on the cob, peas, orka and squash.... Hey I was just to lazy to put poison on the vegetables when they really didn't need it....and fresh baked frozen biscuits from WAL-MART ...I'm living large DUmmies.

[BattleHymn]

I don't cook anything like that.  I pay someone else to do it for me.   

[Tucker]

With no sauce of any kind, unless their a slab of ribs.

The best bacon is peeled from a still screaming pig, strip by strip.
Much more flavor that way.

That's true. There is no marinade better than adrenaline.

What's a "goggie"?

[franksolich]

What's a "goggie"?

Apparently it's a queer word for a canine pet.

It's the brain-damaged primitive, after all.

I forget what he calls feline pets.

So, your goggie (apparently means 'dog') " woo woo'd " which from context means made some sort of noise - when he saw you bounce on his front feet while 'calling mom' -- If I were your 'goggie', I'd make noise too if some drug addled moonbat was bouncing on my feet, no matter how 'awsome' it might have seemed.

Flayed bacon.

Organically fed, heh. I remember what we fed our pigs on the farm. Their brothers and sisters' guts when we butchered.

And, yes, the bacon was superb! As was the hams, pork steaks (A St. Loius MO regional thing) and the sausages. We would soak the small and large intenstines in brine, turn 'em inside out, scrape 'em and stuff them to the bursting with bits and pieces of scrappings and unidentifiable cuts. Yum!

Summer sausage, pork sausage, liverwurst, blutwurst, headcheese...I miss being a kid on the farm. We knew where our meat came from, watched 'em grow, watched 'em get shot with a .22 between the eyes, throat slit, bled into a pot (for the blutwurst) scalded, scraped and then attacked with my dad's and all the uncles and neighbors' butcher/boning knives. A regular homespun disassembly line for "organically grown" (Everything they ate was grown on the farm without anything sprayed on it) and "humanely treated" (mistreat a cow or pig and get caught by Pop was death awaitin').

Ahhh, good times, good times.

Shit is organic. My dogs think goose poop is heavenly.

Ugh.  Goose are nasty critters.

There is a "bird sanctuary" not far from here.  Those things are vile and mean.

[Rebel]

Thanks!

That's why we call him coach. Or teacher. Or Professor. Or the "wise one". Stealing Frank from CU, which, under current leadership I do not mind, was a treasure.

I think it depends on how they've been raised and what kind they are. Mine have been hand raised since they were babies. And they're Toulouse Geese which tend to be friendlier than most breeds (although my Africans were pretty nice too, just lost my last African, Jose, he thought he was a turkey and used to wander around with them all day, when they flew to safety...African's are too heavy to fly...to get away from a coyote, he became dinner). But with Toulouse, they're slow & lumbering and don't go too far from the coop and will go in at night instead of sleeping in the pond where they're easier prey. Both gander and goose are protective of their goslings. During the rest of the year they're about as affectionate as a goose can be and a couple will even enjoy the occasional pat on the head. Plus, they're excellent "guard dogs". I've seen them chase grown men back into their trucks. Plus they eat weeds and keep the grass down. Any animal that will eat that nasty, invasive purslane is worth having.

The only thing I like better than my geese are my Muscovy's. They're bug vaccums, especially mosquitoes & fleas. And they're extremely friendly and so damned ugly, they're cute!
