I like WATCHING squirrels, but those fockers are biotches! On the other hand... Squirrel. Garlic. Red wine. Think of the possibilities.  (Sorta like the GBB version of MasterChef.) Signor V.

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."

I kinda like the Ranaldi (#2), but there are better jarred sauces than any on the list -- but they cost a pretty penny. That's why you might as well make your own: it's not that tough, and only takes about an hour. (Okay, "Gravy" takes longer -- but never heard of a good jarred or canned "gravy")

The jarred sauces that taste close to homemade are usually three times the price of Prego and Ragu. We always have some jarred sauce on hand, and I've been buying Cento recently. There is also a sauce called Gumbah's Gravy from Brooklyn that's pretty good.

Too bad I wasn't invited.... I had a whole, large box of fresh paczki and I had to eat it by myself. Fresh paczki would be your ticket to this celebration of gluttony. When I stopped at the store after work, I tossed a few cartons of ice cream into the cart along with Cheez-its and homemade chocolate chip cookies. I then grabbed some carrots, broccoli and lettuce just to make the cart look a little legitimate. I have a couple things to do, but I have three bottles of Guinness on ice by the pool, and after the game around ten, I'll spend an hour drinking them while listening to the White Album.

You're having yourself quite the night there, klyd! Good for you! But strawberry? Any kind of ice cream to indulge with, and you pick one made from fruit? Really?  Where's your chocolate-fudge-peanut butter-marshmallow-all-swirled-together kind of ice cream? Now that's indulging! Edit: you do get a pass because of the rocking combo of cookies and beer. Also, throwing in the greens to add legitimacy to your order reminded me of when I worked at a drug store and young men used to ask for a comb, some lifesavers, condoms, a pack of gum and a chapstick....

http://travel.nytimes.com/2012/07/01/tra...ut-at-home.htmlAs soon as Kelly Macdonald, 36, the voice of the Scottish princess Merida in Pixar and Disney’s new animated feature “Brave,” finishes filming a season of the HBO television series “Boardwalk Empire” in New York, she returns to her home city, Glasgow. There, she loves to scout out new restaurants and visit old haunts.
“All the pleasurable beige foods,” she said, “I get them out of my system the first week I’m home.”
Below are edited excerpts from a conversation with Ms. Macdonald about eating in Scotland.
Q: Where should visitors to Glasgow go for traditional Scottish food?
A: I love Two Fat Ladies at the Buttery, one of the oldest restaurants in Glasgow, with dark-wood paneling and tartan upholstery. The menu has all kinds of locally sourced fish like sea trout, sea bream, seared scallops. They do an amazing sole meunière.
I go to Cafezique for Scottish breakfast: sausage, bacon, eggs, baked beans with black pudding, which is basically blood with sausage (it’s delicious, but you don’t want to think about it too much). At chip shops, I love to get potato fritters. You put them in a Scottish morning roll, then add ketchup and butter; we don’t have the highest rate of heart disease in Europe for no reason....
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming
Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

Within the last few months, I remember seeing a feature on a local news show where they did a taste-testing survey of around a half-dozen commercially available pasta sauces.
I recall that the Batali sauce, though a bit pricey, scored high marks (no pun intended!) overall.
Anyone else out there have opinions on this sauce?
