this is a blog about the food in my life. what I eat, what I wanna eat, what I make, what I bake, what I wanna make and bake, ideas and recipes. it's also my thoughts on food or stories behind the meals. The lyric references are from my lifelong love of classic rock and funk and from working a hunnerd years in music retail.

The Second Time Around
Buying specialty food for the holidays sometimes gives back. The three cheese ravioli I purchased for the fried ravioli appetizer became dinner the next day with the leftover marinara sauce. I just added some artichoke hearts and Parmesan.
This is more like reconditioned food but I've always felt in general that leftovers needed a new name. They get a bad rap. Advertising is everything. To me they are more of a delicacy. If heated properly, many times the leftover holiday meats and sides taste even better the second time around. How about 'remaining surplus'!?
