When I make the rules, anyone who would construct a sentence with the "_______ is one thing, ________ is quite another" structure don't get no fuckin' brisket.

If you ever make brisket like Wonk's, you can make the rules.

I am more sommelierish, like Stephen, from season 1 of Top Chef. To round out my talents I limit my partnering, sexually, to chicks with chef skillz.

It's my rye self-deprecating humour. Plus, it set one of my socks up for the classique "outable?!?!!?" post.

We are. Sorry. This weekend. Pinky swear. In the meantime however I got some just released 2007 Claret from Matthews Estate (one of my new favorite wineries) that I am really high on, so you will get the benefit of that.

No need for apologies, I've been remiss also.

But I prefer that your self-deprecating humour be of the barley sort.

Eat this.

Four large diver scallops
olive oil
tbsp butter
zest of one lime
juice of one lime
sea salt
black pepper

saute the scallops in the olive oil and butter. When they are golden brown, but still not quite cooked,add lime zest and lime juice. Cook until done, reduce pan juices to a scant tbsp.

dress scallops with sea salt and pepper, drizzle pan sauce over all.

Serve it with Chaleur Estate Blanc from DeLille (if you can find it-or google DeLille and order on-line)......Sidd can vouch for the wine.

Morels

Morels appeared at the Farmers Market today. $35/lb for the biggest ones I've seen. I prefer the smaller ones but these were big enough to put on the grill.

At that price I need to figure out a way to spread some morel spores over the woodsy part of the Fugee Family Farm and start growing those babies.
