New wine blog from a friend of Matt Yglesias. Not sure about the quality, but probably worth a look at least.

Lately I have had more than my usual share of failures in the kitchen...
I need some disipline too:>) I have been distracted, stessed, and not paying attention to detail...

Now that spring is here I am getting back on tract, try this adaption of a dish from Diner (I got this from thier excellent food mag called Diner Journal)

Pan fry prosciutto and ramp greens (only), set aside.
Blanche asparagus lightly, throw above on top.
Fry a (Flying Pig Farms) egg on top of that.
A dash of Celtic salt, olive oil, and a parmesan shave.
Crake the egg and let the yoke run, YUM!!

Lately I have had that Failure As A Dad feeling....

Not in the love/fun/spirit/etc dept where I feel I am a few notches above par but in disipline, sure I had no idea that my boy was a Strong Willed Lux Model, and that I was also the same and my parents prob had a tough time with me but still its been hurting lately....

The books have helped to understand the underlying psychology and I am using them to get some stuff done, but he's also moody and he's got some other issues too (like not wanting to poop, daddy cant poop enough and he wants to hold it in), anyway I would not want him any other way, he's awesome, even when he wakes up 9 times out of 10 cryingh/moany/moody, if he see's me before mommy in the morning he slams the door to his room and throws a fit, but soon its "Daddy Can You.....??" and were off....

The daughter looks like she will be easy but I am smarter now too...

Accompanied by six graphs, two tables and equations whose terms include “bologna” and “carpet,” it’s a thorough microbiological study of the five-second rule: the idea that if you pick up a dropped piece of food before you can count to five, it’s O.K. to eat it.

A GALLON jar of pickles sits near the register at Lee’s Washerette and Food Market, a mustard-colored cinder-block bunker on the western fringe of this Mississippi Delta town.

Those pickles were once mere dills. They were once green. Their exteriors remain pebbly, a reminder that long ago they began their lives on a farm, on the ground, as cucumbers.

So Vaynerchuk, 31, has taken over the liquor store his father started and built a 40,000-square-foot store in Springfield, N.J., devoted mostly to wine. He also started Wine Library TV, an almost-daily video blog featuring his wine tastings that he posts on his Web site.

i was saying the other night how hard it was to roast beans in manhattan. well, it took an engineer to figure it out. now all he needs to do is learn how to ice a latte and he'll be in business.

Tasty treats are starting to pop up out of the ground....

Locanda Vini Olii which has always been at the top of my NYC eating charts from day one.......spring fava's, spring chich pea;s (new to me), asparagus blanco, than pasta pasta pasta, insanely great steak (Italian low fat breed from Montana)

While some people say the best pizza in NYC could be this new-ish place on 12st?? First Ave near 12th??....My fav is at The Modern's Tarte Flambee but in a micro thin version, stunning, at $12 and easy to eat it solo (with a beer), its a $25 snack spot w/ tax and tip, so its dear but its living!!

Bar Masa's tofu salad is another $12 treat that I cant get out of my head (mouth).......greens, raisons, pine nuts, is this Japanese, but than add the insane tofu, and the wasabi dressing = WOW!!!....the deep fried spring flowers rock too

jim.....fyi

The Jason Neroni files: leaves Porchetta citing irreconcilable differnces, reportedly finds himself the subject of an arrest warrant, says it's all good, gets arrested, and finally, is released with a court date, but not before getting the full treatment.
