I really like to cook. I am not a wonderful baker; I fantasize about being a wonderful baker. But I like to cook- digging around and figuring out that I can also throw together a salad. And I especially love tallying how much of my dinner is from the greenmarket. This weekend the guys at the meat tent, where I get local grass fed beef, gave me a free container of bison broth. I made my first Onion soup with it. Oh my gosh- it was soooo good. All it is onions and butter cooked for 30 min, then add a little red (or white) wine, then broth and salt and pepper...easy! I also made coffee and chipolte chile braised short ribs a la Mark Bittman, served with mashed potatoes and greens. We had a nice long weekend and were very spoiled by the quiet and nothingtodoness.
The aftermath...
Look at his freshly washed puffy butt!
