wino wednesday

since my dear friend brittany spears also had a 'very poor-failure' rating on the good wife chart, something must be done. and so to inspire her in the kitchen every wednesday, i begin by getting her good and drunk. this makes simple things like remembering to dump the can of chili into the pot difficult at times, but brings so much humor into the kitchen space that it is well worth the effort. for your new and personalized 'art of cooking' cookbook; last nights recipe:

baked potato chili and zucchini (difficulty level: beginner)
step one: boil potatoes - chop into smaller pieces, cook until soft when forked
step two: open can of chili, dump into pot on stove, simmer on med-low
step three: saute (4) sliced zukes in a pan with 2 T. (tablespoons, remember these are the lines of the cube of butter), about 5-7 minutes until tender and golden brown
step four: add my secret magical ingredients to potatoes and zukes- "salt.peppa.garlic"
step four: dish up and top with shredded cheddar and a side of sour cream

cheers chef spears!

  2. Step 5....pour the 7th glass of wine, and convince Even that he loves fine scotch. It's my winter goal, to get him drinking scotch with me in front of the fireplace watching football! ;)
