Day 85 - Fusilli with Greens and Sausage

Fusilli with Greens and Sausage - pg. 267

Ha! Guess you thought I'd quit my Alice Waters project, eh? No way! I made this dish with penne and kale, which Alice allows. She has a cool idea for using Italian sausage. You remove the sausage from the casings and form it into little meatballs. The dish was good, but hardly news for me since I've always made stuff like this. OTOH, I made it better this time. Didn't make a lot of pasta, just a little. And served the "sauce" over the penne instead of mixing it all together. It all looked quite gourmet and tasted pretty good, too.

Leo was adopted by a family. A man and wife and their teenage daughter. At any given time there are always several cats at NCHS I want to bring home. It's worst right now because we are getting kittens. Newborns with their eyes still closed. I've been visiting some of them nearly every day, especially little Larry. He's white and tabby. His eyes are just opening right now. His foster mom brings Larry and his 3 (so far) buddies in every day when she comes to work so she can continue to feed them every 2 hours. The last little buddy is a tortoiseshell. True to form, she is a total diva.

My Big Adventure today was the search for blankets. You wouldn't think it would be that tough, but it is when you have something specific in mind. I found 'em. Target.

White and tabby? Oh, honey, you're toast. :-] But, hey. He'd give Nicky some moral support.

I know. I'm starting to smear myself with butter and jam already. OTOH, there are now a whole bunch more infant kitties. Three tabbies, 2 semi-Siamese, and 1 tortoiseshell who is (true to form) a total diva. We'll see.
