Sunday Gravy with yeah right: Carne Asada From Scratch!

Hola everyone! Happy Sunday morning and all of that good shit. Despite the weather playing the part of a gloomy, misty dickhead the last, say 8 months or so I figured it was about goddamn time we fired up that grill! We are once again making some carne asada today. Mainly because it's

Lurid or Lucid? A Very Different Sunday Gravy

 The monumental sadness of everything. Harken back to a happier time, while stoned and watching, I think it was Bourdain.  He was in some remote village in a place I long (I’m certain Dok has already been) to see, when the host asked where one can get the best drunken egg rolls

Then we stopped getting Rivers and just got good ole regular April Showers. Those eventually relented and we thought the sun would finally

Sunday Gravy with yeah right: A Pleasing Pictorial for Pitch Perfect Pasta

Good morning everyone! Damn good to be back. Here we are just a week before Memorial Day weekend. I wish we could call it the unofficial start of summer but it's still gloomy and overcast as fuck over here. I'll still get out there and fire up the grill at some point
