I have some left over Cabbage
Continuing on my streak of non stop cooking I am going to make stuffed cabbage. I have a whole left over cabbage since no one wanted to eat my corn beef and cabbage so I didn't make the whole thing.
I have really been enjoying watching Gina cook. She really reminds me of my grandmother. She cooks the way I do. No fancy measuring other then a full bowl of something. She throws it in and mixes it with her hands. Then while her hands are still dirty she touches the stove or the cabinet or the refrigerator and leaves a little smear on the handle. Exactly the way I do and the wife threatens to kill me if I don't stop being messy. I showed her these videos and said "Look she gets a million views doing exactly what I do in the kitchen that you can see for yourself every day."
She hit me with a wooden spoon.

Just like my Grandma used to make
So the wife was annoying the piss out of me by listening to De Blasio's press conference. I couldn't take that commie bullshit anymore so I used my usual solution.
I got my headphones and I went on Youtube. I have been searching out new things to cook because I think they are getting tired of my normal recipes. I had laid in a bunch of chicken and meat and stuff and decide to make a different type of chicken dish. As I went through the site I found a bunch of videos made by this old lady Gina who titles her posts as "An Italian Grandma cooks....." something. In this case it was Chicken Francese.
It is exactly the way my Grandma used to make it. I adapted it a little as I didn't use any wine so my mother-in-law wouldn't bitch. I really pounded the cutlets to make them thin. (not a euphemism) I used my home made chicken stock but I did add a lot of capers. It came out great. They actually both loved it. That almost never happens.
I guess I will be watching a lot of YouTube.
