Meals & Recipes

When I cook for myself and my friends, I try to create healthier alternatives to popular recipes.
I also add a touch of Creole and Melungeon seasoning and spice to pretty much everything.

Ground beef is seared in a pan:
(Place a block of room-temperature, patted-dry ground beef into a pre-heated (hot) pan, 
allowing the bottom to brown without disturbing it, then flipping it to sear the other side 
before breaking it up and continuing to cook until it's browned and crispy. 
This technique creates flavorful crusts and avoids the gray, steamed appearance 
of ground beef cooked in a cold pan.)
Break up the block with a spatula and brown the inside, then drain the fat. Reduce heat to low.
Sautée onions and garlic in a large saucepan. Add wine and tomato paste to form the base.
Add desired herbs and spices (mushrooms, rosemary, etc.)
Add the browned beef to the sauce.
Simmer gently for a few hours or place in a slow cooker on low setting.
Finish cooking the pasta in the pan with the meat sauce, Or 
Toss the cooked pasta directly with the meat sauce just before serving

2020 is Hindsight: A Collection of Pandemic Observations and Absurdities

2020 is Hindsight by Skip Pulley This journal is posted in reverse order, on the dates each post was written. The final entry is the first to appear; the first entry is the last one to be read. Feel free to discuss these journal entries in the comments using your own thoughts in your own words. Don't just post a link with no context. Posting links and memes as response is lazy apologist conformity. If you can't find a way to make your point, then you probably don't have one. There are books and documentaries listed at the bottom of the post which are available for order. I suggest you expand your mind in order to keep up the debate. "I predict that the lab-leak theory will one day be confirmed, even in the mainstream media; as well as the fact that MNRA vaccines were designed to alter human DNA." Skip Pulley, May 1 2021 January 3rd, 2021 These so-called "variants" are a clear confirmation that this virus, whatever it is, and wherever it came from, is he...

Always Never Forever - the Preface; Nothing is Real

Image
the Preface Nothing is real Purchase on Amazon Writers do not become  writers, they simply realize one day that they are writers. I realized it in 1989, at age 16. I began my writing career as a freelance contributor. I wrote live music reviews and creative nonfiction, mostly narrative essays. At the time, all my literary idols were transcendentalists. I admired many of the authors personally and I loved their writing style. Transcendentalism validated my belief system and reassured me that a purpose for all life existed. Through study and observation I learned that the human “self” is invariably linked to nature. I learned that social institutions such as organized religion and the political process ultimately corrupt the individual. Human beings are designed to be self-reliant and autonomous, thereby able to form true community. Like most philosophical movements, transcendentalism is a big word that describes a simple idea. Humans have knowledge about themselves and their univer...
