- i kept saying that this weekend was labor day weekend. memorial day, veterans day, labor day. i don’t care what day it actually is as long as i get the day off. so i guess next weekend will be “sway bar day weekend” since i’m getting my sway bars replaced and won’t have a car to drive to work on friday.
- the pulled pork at blue ribbon bbq. smokey, tender, and tasty. go get some.
- i’m officially a published writer. my first article appeared in the boston globe food section last week. and thanks to the article, the bbq line at formaggio was around the block.
- the first grilled pizza of the season. and probably my best ever. practice definitely makes perfect.
- jjp’s memorial day/labor day bbq on sunday. i finally got to see all the little people that my friends are producing at an alarming rate. the winner for most fun baby goes to luke mcgonagle, who looks just like his dad and likes hotdogs. the food was also top-notch as charlie was manning the grill. and for the record, this weekend, i ate pretty much every animal you can eat. pork, beef, lamb, chicken, and octopus.
- yes, those are really grilled baby octopi. and they were damn good.
- primer. if anyone can explain this movie to me, please do. it’s about a couple of engineers who manage to build a time machine in their garage, and it’s one wacky, confusing movie. it was also made for $7000 by a former engineer who taught himself how to make movies, and wrote, produced, directed, and starred in it. very impressive. and very confusing.
- in an effort to see the new star wars, i’m having susanne watch the first 2 prequels with me this week.
- everyone should join me this saturday at the paradise to say goodbye to our friends fooled by april. they’re moving on with their lives, but they leave some great memories and some rocking tunes for us to remember them by. best of luck boys.
- an interview with a fortune cookie fortune writer.
- molto italiano, the new cookbook from our friend mario batali. this thing is huge, and it is now the definitive italian cookbook in our kitchen. if you need a recipe for something great and italian, this thing has it. and we haven’t found a bad dish yet.
