Aren’t these maccheroni fun? And how gorg does this sauce look?!

Maccheroni di Natale

Tomato sauce coming along

Aren’t these maccheroni fun? And how gorg does this sauce look?! Hope it tastes as exuberant as it appears.

Aren’t these cherries gorgeous?

Aren’t these gorgeous? Good thing cherry pitters were invented as I just pitted about 4 pounds of these. I froze 3 lbs and am going to work on a spicy sour cherry chutney with the rest. Thank you, sugartoast.

Unbelievable eating

Watching the boys eat makes me feel like I spawned two Coneheads (SNL). They can really chow. What is it going to be like when they’re teens? I will have to set up camp at the market, perhaps even get a job there. It is a good thing I like to cook and they have such good palates. Also perhaps that Tom has a good job.
