After not feeling well last night and most of the day, I started feeling better in the mid-afternoon. Wendy & I went shopping at Jungle Jim’s for ingredients for the 8-course meal we’re preparing for my parents and a couple friends on Sunday and stopped at White Castle for cheeseburgers […]
Wendy had a beauty treatment tonight after work so I spent the evening taking to the trash the MOUNTAIN of boxes we had accumulated from ordering most of our Christmas presents for everyone from the Internet (that took a while) and working on my preparation timeline for the multi-course meal we’re preparing for […]

As you saw in yesterday’s blog post, here is the menu we served for Christmas Eve. Here, I’ve expanded it to include the wines we served. My mother & father joined us, along with Paul, and Deb, two close friends. After Wendy & I went shopping Wednesday evening, I worked much […]
MERRY CHRISTMAS! Wendy & I woke up early to celebrate our Christmas together with the pets. Once done with that, we headed over to Wendy’s family’s home to celebrate with them before being joined in the evening by Wendy’s extended family and my parents to celebrate some more. Dinner was chicken, […]
After the hectic holidays, Wendy & I snuck to a dark, quiet Chinese restaurant (whose name I do not know — it’s the one near the Outback & Taj Mahal restaurants) for really good carryout-style food. Wendy had Pad Thai, I had General Tao’s Chicken (which was the weakest dish […]
My friend Paul was in from out of town (he stopped working at University of Cincinnati and took a job at Notre Dame, about 4.5 hours away from here) for the holidays, so Wendy & I met him and Julie at Tokyo Restaurant on Chester Road for sushi and other […]
We had talked about taking this evening off to see ERAGON, but when it came time, we were both too tired and just felt like sitting around the house. So, we picked up a couple of as-big-as-your-head burritos from Chipotle and hit the couch. We got caught up on several […]
Wendy had some cake decorating to do this evening, so we’re spending a very-much-appreciated night in. We had LaRosa’s bring us dinner. Wendy got her usual Deli Ciabatta, and this time I switched it up a bit and got Cheese Ravioli and a salad. Everything was very good and filling! […]

I decided to put down ONLY REVOLUTIONS for the time being. Though I was enjoying the book, I was struggling with it because this period of time is so busy with the holidays and my busiest time at work. I kept losing the thread of the book because I wasn’t able to devote […]
Our last dinner of this year-long experiment, and our last dinner of 2006, was anything but glamourous. Wendy was working on her Photo Gallery Cakecentral on CakeCentral.com”>anniversary all day (it took about 7 hours) so we were home for lunch (leftover LaRosa’s pizza) and for dinner (a couple cans of Chef […]
Last year, we took a look at all the dinners I ate — each and every night of the year — and that experiment seemed to go very well. This year, I’m going to post a recipe each-and-every week. The recipes will come from different sources, and will be all over […]
Our very first recipe for 2007 is for a very easy, tasty Hollandaise Sauce from Mark Bittman. His method turns the difficult classical preparation of this sauce on its ear. This is the fool-proof way to prepare Hollandaise! -= Exported from BigOven =- Hollandaise Sauce — Bittman Once a challenging […]
