You Have To Be Generous If You

My Kids And I Make Pasta Three Days A Week Now. It's Not Even So Much About The Eating Of It; They Just Like The Process. Benno Is The Stuffer, And Leo Is The Catcher. They've Got Their Jobs Down.

My Favorite Thing Is Always A Nice, Inexpensive Draft Beer, But If Someone Wants Something A Little More Complicated Than That, Then I'd Like A Michelada, Which Is Where I Take Beer And A Little Bit Of Either A Spicy Or Not-so-spicy Bloody Mary, Mix It Like Six To One [ratio], So It's Kind Of A Red Beer.

The Very Common Error Of Young Or Unconfident Cooks Is To Keep Putting More Of Their Own Personal Ideology Into A Plate Until There's So Much Noise That You Really Can't Even Hear A Tune. You Can Say More In An Empty Space Than You Can In A Crowded One.

If You're Going To Buy Pasta, You Should Buy Dry Pasta. If You're Going To Make It You Can Make The Real Thing, But You Shouldn't Buy Fresh Pasta.

Look At Cookbooks With Your Kids And Ask Them What Sounds Good.
