GRANPA EATS ZEPPOLE FOR ST. JOSEPH'S DAY

St. Joseph's day in Italy is a wonderful celebration. Mostly it is a time to eat zeppole. A baker from Naples invented the pastry in the 19th century and it has been popular since that time.Mostly popular in Rome and the Naples area, a must for the day.
Barb bought us two over the weekend. So I ate mine on St. Patrick's Day. A saint! So it was okay.

A SAUCE GETS GRANPA COOKING AGAIN

A nice ragu sauce is simmering on the stove.Ground beef and some pork bones for flavour in the tomato passata make it great with any pasta. Dealing with my health issues has slowed me down. But being back in the kitchen for simple meal preparation is good. The sauce takes more effort. I told Barb I am making it for her. Hum she said. You're making it because you don't like my cooking!
