First, a confession. I'm a food blog snob. It's true, I am. I like my own blog so much, that I don't care for many others. Now, some people would say I'm conceited, but conceit is a fault and I don't really have any of those. (thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week).

It is worth noting though, that there are a few food blogs that I regularly read. And, thanks to my friends over at The Culinary Sherpas, I am now going to tackle my own Alfredo Sauce.

I will admit to being guilty of assuming that Alfredo Sauce was hard...and yes, there is a bottle of it sitting in my cabinet right now. But Mal Carne (yes, that means Bad Meat) over at The Culinary Sherpas has demystified it for me. So, I have some portabello stuffed breaded, baked ravioli in my freezer at home that might be getting a homemade Alfredo Sauce treatment soon.

I'm sure a few of you are saying...wait! What the hell? Frozen ravioli? Yeah, well bite me. I don't think my culinary adventures are quite ready to graduate from stir fries to rolling out my own pasta and making my own ravioli just yet, give me a month or two at least.

Also, I've had to work on a pretty tight budget as I get ready for my upcoming vacation. So I've been really enjoying my Bullard Beans for the last few days. I think next week, I'm going to remake them only Cajun style this time with Andouille Sausage and heck, maybe some chunks of blackened chicken? Who knows.

I also made a second Beef Stir Fry, better than the first. This time adding asparagus, snow peas and more Hoisin Sauce, as well as dried red pepper. It was excellent. And, I made rice to go with it. It was almost perfect (and will be next time), but hey, everyone knows the rice is the hard part...
