Hey guys! I hijacked my blog back for a sec, Hooray!!! So today my cousin Michael (whose probably the smartest 10 year old alive) and i are cook'n up a storm.
Hey Guys I'm MIke/ Michael and today me and my cousin are making mac and cheese but not normal should i say we made it Top chef style (Bam!)
I Just walked into the kichen to find my cousin cutting bacon with scissors WTF! (Watch the language there buddy.) The mac and cheese or it's real name Truffle and cognac Cream Macaroni and cheese.This "meal" is Made with, 1 cup cognac, 1tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, 1 shallot (minced), 6 roasted garlic cloves, minced. 1 tablespoon sherry, 6oz of black truffles (that's right baby!!), 4 cups heavy cream, 2tsp minced fresh organo and 2tsp thyme leaves (from the garden) 6oz parm cheese, 2tsp chipotle tabasco sauce, salt and pepper, 1lb pasta alle dente, 8oz fontina, 2cups seasoned croutons.
So we didn't have black truffles, but my mom had a tube of black truffle paste on hand (because who doesn't?) so we used that instead. Not exactly sky high classy, but pretty freak'n classy none the less. Also it's delicious (Freak'n tasty!). Of course we didn't have any pasta in the house though, so i had to go to the grocery store for a third time today because apparently i heart them. So yeah, we put all the ingredients together, and stuff.
Grate that cheese! A big lump of cheese fell on my foot.
I did the knife work today, but Michael is totally skilled (I'm pretty good.). He was too busy waiting on the hot tub fill (Dad thinks he fixed it, only time will tell).
Waiting is the hardest part. So then he was like, hey can you show me how to cap bottles?
He's got that Pappas determination. Hard but fun. Anyway this made him like the happiest person in the world so please, waste as many 5cent caps as you want. I'm not afraid... to take a stand... Everybody! come take my hand. We'll walk this road together, through the storm. Whatever weather, cold or warm... (he's walking around the room singing.)
Herbs!
There's something about those Svoli and shirts. They hate them. So anyway my dad was like: "Hey, that's good, but some bacon in it! And Mikey was like, "Can we??" Yes.
That is good look'n mac and cheese!
Dig in (Phil)!
Anyway this was delicious. True that. Now it's time for me to go to bed. What? Why? Cause i have to wake up at 3:30. Yeah, but already? It's, like, not even 8. Don't judge me. Hey, thanks for the blog help! You oBviously needed it. Thanks.
guest blogger of the year!

ReplyDeleteMichaeli should be a permanent addition to this blog (I guess he can be for the next 3 weeks). Also, leave it to dad to make the fattiest, best looking thing on earth even better (and fattier). You know what was missing from this? Butter.
