Spagetti Results

Ladies and gentlemen, the moment you've all been waiting for... (drum roll please) the Mike Roach serious attempt at the world famous Grandpa Pete spaghetti sauce:

Not bad for a first attempt at unsupervised spaghetti sauce cooking. However, I do have a long way to go before duplicating Grandpa Pete's. I agree with my Uncle Pete's comment about the ever evasive Grandpa Pete.

I may just have to accept the fact that mine will never be as good. I'll just give mine the name, "Mike Roach's World Famous Attempt at his Grandpa Pete's World Famous Spaghetti Sauce Made from Scratch."

By the way, what is Scratch anyway? It seems to be getting inside all the good recipes.

Happy MLK Day!

No, that's not an abbreviation for Happy Milk Day. It is an abbreviation for Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day! I do find it strange that MLK Jr.'s birthday somehow always falls on a Monday. That musta stunk when, after a relaxing weekend, he had to go into work on his birthday. Do you think Martin Luther King Jr. ever called in sick on his Birthday-Monday?

In on slightly more serious note, I am taking some time to relax today and put to use one of my new favorite toys (I bought it for a steal of a deal from Ross for only 24.99): the BIG pot!

In order to properly christen the BIG pot, I am making (to my best recollection because he won't give a wrriten recipe) Grandpa Pete's world famous recipe for spaghetti sauce.

Full report on the results to follow!
