bloodletting

Man, I am a weenie when it comes to lacerations. Last night when that knife went right through the thumbnail and into the flesh -- hooee! There was a moment there when I thought I was about to get friendly with the kitchen floor real fast. Thank god the Wife got home and patched things up when she did. No wonder married men live longer.

But you should have seen that dinner: handmade spinach lasagna noodles layered with goat cheese, ricotta and roasted eggplant, onion, bellpepper and tomato. Plus, plus, a delectable all-vegetarian minestrone. And there are leftovers, too. Can I follow a recipe or what?

By the way, if you're keeping count: this clearly makes up for that rubbery cake I produced for the Wife's birthday a few months ago.
