Culinary Adventure the First

So after subsisting on a diet of canned soup, pb&j sandwiches and breakfast cereal for four months or so I decided I needed a change of pace.

So I put on my chef hat, called up a new friend to be my sou chef and cooked up this.

I honestly wish I had taken a picture, because against all odds it came out amazingly. I was honestly expecting sauce on the walls, sliced fingers and fires of varying intensity. The only thing I got worried about was my sou friend sniffing the curry powder. I saw the horrible image of her nearly losing a lung to a sneezing fit.

Only things I would suggest as a change to the recipe is to use thick boneless chops, put a few apple slices in the sauce instead of just cider and go a bit lighter on the onions (even for the half serving we made). Oh, and garlic never hurts. Totally going to comment to this effect on Epi.

I now totally see why people food blog. You get to boast and salivate.

Also, Mirassou Pinot Noir is terrible. Stay far away.
