On Brussels Sprouts.



I spent my whole life convinced that I hated Brussels sprouts.  As it turns out, that's not true.  When roasted in a stoneware pan with a little olive oil and garlic they're pretty good.  And on that note, I decided to see if I could change B'nut's perception on these little green super foods.

“B’nut, why don’t you come over here and try a roasted Brussels sprout?”

“Uh....”

“It’s ok, I tasted them. They’re really good.”

B’nut looks over toward the stove in obvious alarm.  “I don’t like them.”

“Oh?  Are you sure?  Because I’m a better cook than anyone else, so I bet you’ll like these.  You like pretty much everything I make.”

“Ok.”  She chews thoughtfully on a bite.  “You are right.  You are the best cook in the world.  These are good.”

Yep.

You heard it here:

Best Salesman Cook in the World.

Rest Day

My kid, B'nut... yeah, she pretty. much. kicks. a**.

She arrived in my bedroom at 1:20am 
(yes... that's 1:20am) 
and announced that I needed to take off her training wheels.  
OK.
But can we wait until sun up?
