Thursday's Graces

Most people spend the whole week looking forward to Friday, some to a scary degree. I hate Fridays, ‘cause that’s the day in between the two days Fiore’s in Hoboken makes their very own roast beef, which, when combined with their famous mozzarella on fresh bread and dunked in gravy, make living for Thursday a much better option.

I love cooking, make a great roast beef and gravy myself, but I swear they must put something in the stuff. It makes me so happy that, even on the worst Thursdays, I can’t stop smiling once I know I’ll have a chance to run out and get one. Thankfully, they’re practically around the corner!

Great food is like that, and I finally decided that I spend so much of my time obsessing on food, I might as well combine my two loves (writing being the other), and give a blog a go. My friends think I should be writing cookbooks and auditioning for Top Chef, but my passion is truly cooking for me and the people I love, serving the perfect drinks for the meal/season/occasion/whatever, or just eating the bounty that living in one of the great culinary areas of the world affords me.

I hope you enjoy this, since you stumbled across it, and pledge to further my food explorations if it entertains you. Quite a sacrifice, huh?
