Rapid Ragu


There's a fly in my house and it's driving me bonkers!!! Zoom, zoom, zoom and I can't grab a hold of it. I hate having flies in my house. It makes me think of my old apartment I had long ago on the wrong side of the tracks. Things started out good there but then they went terribly awry. We used to have a piece of cardboard and a disco ball in the living room and we would have these amazing "dance partys" with 4 people at the most. We would have a dance off like you wouldn't believe on the cardboard. It was so much fun...that was when it was good. Lemme tell ya about when it got bad. First - my sister and I (who I lived with) went to Florida and we came home to find that the man that lived above us had spent the week creeping about our apartment. The Landlord came by to check the place for us and found him in our kitchen!!!!! How effing creepy is that??? What then was the straw that broke the camels back was shortly after that we found a bunch of maggots under our kitchen sink. Even now bile comes up my throat just thinking about it. That was a good 1o years ago and I'm still effected by it. This is why I'm freaking out about this one fly. Flies in my house give me the heebie-jeebies!

Despite the fly I managed to make Husband a meat laden dinner - which he loved. I thought this meal looked kinda gross - but Husband seemed to find it appealing. Perhaps I'm too far removed from the time of meat-eating but this had zero appeal to me. I don't know what to say about this really...mostly because it didn't look good to me..but sometimes taste and looks aren't related. Husband cleaned his bowl up and remarked that it was good. So it's a bit of a coin toss for me here. Obviously it must taste decent but the look just wasn't appealing. If you like chili con carne you may wanna try this but just remember I warned you it doesn't look a peach.

Now where did that fly go....
