There’s not much to report as of late, except that Pat and Gina have been making some especially good-looking dishes on Down Home With the Neelys, including a scrumptious stovetop mac & cheese.  Watching Gina stir the cheese sauce reminded me of the time last summer when I was shopping for mac & cheese ingredients and accidentally bought a five oz. block of Gruyère that cost eleven dollars.  I hadn’t looked at its price tag and didn’t pay attention at the register.  It’s still the only time I’ve ever shopped like a wealthy person.
