About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

My literary group met yesterday. We are reading Yeats these days. I made supper for 9. Some images (sorry… no long explanations. Busy day). The Christmas Pudding! I begin the broth for Tortellini in Brodo. It isn’t quiet enough to … Read More

Friday Salad
It’s Friday and time not to eat meat. The entree was spectacularly… dull. The salad started with my macerating stuff. In the bowl: a splash of decent balsamic vinegar, a jot of olive oil, a small clove of chopped garlic, … Read More
Z-Cam fun: Ray!

Sunday Supper: More Hot Plate Adventures
For lunch today I thought of something Eastern, in honor of the Magi, but something not Chinese. Since I am working with a hot plate, I wanted to keep it simple. Chicken Tikka Masala. Start with boneless, skinless chicken thighs … Read More
