Today made second half of tonight‘s dinner. About 60 mini ravioli filled with braised beef short rib. Pasta cooked in about 2 minutes and finished in a simple butter sauce. Recipe from Marc Vetri’s cookbook: The Pasta Book. Dinner was phenomenal. Want to make every recipe in this thing.

Today I made 60-70 francobolli (mini ravioli about 1.25” square) filled with a celery root puree for tomorrow’s dinner. There is definitely a learning curve working with fresh pasta but by the end, I was getting the hang of it.

Okay, so this article gets through a little of the fraud alleged. But if it was just a matter of people lying about their income, that should get caught when those folks file their next tax return. www.cnbc.com/2026/09/22/t...

" The report defined improper or fraudulent enrollment as individuals misstating their income to gain access to free plans."

The Caphe Roasters J Street Sando is one of the best egg sandwiches I’ve ever had. And I’ve had many excellent ones. Their coffee drinks are special as well. A must stop when you are in Philly. Plan accordingly tho. They are mobbed on weekends.

The break in the weather allowed us to cook outside again yesterday. Smoked pork belly followed by cherry almond pie. #SummerPies

Have been feeding the sourdough starter but hadn’t baked in awhile so I’m a little rusty. These looked great but were a little underproofed. I think my starter wasn‘t ripe enough.

My generous mother-in-law, who always remembers me on holidays and birthdays, asked my wife to drive downtown and get me a pound of Isgro cookies. iykyk. Best Italian bakery in the city. If you’re a foodie visiting Philadelphia, this should be on your list. These are as light as air.
