I made this last Saturday night for my wife and one of my dearest Friends.  It reminded me while I was eating it the simplest things in life or actually the best.  Although you might think this sounds really difficult i assure you that it is not.  It is simple and delicious. 

In a life of uncertain chaos it is really nice to know that some things will pull you back to what is really important..  We cannot change the world.  we cannot control the wars or the unjust that happens to millions of people on a hourly basis.  The only thing that we have control over is our own catacomb that we call our life our existence.  I say turn off the news turn up the heat in your kitchen create memories that are positive for the ones that you love.  Through the mouth I say gets to the heart the quickest. The end of days may be coming.  And when they do My friends and family will arrive onto the pearly gates full and ready for a nap. 

Have an amazing day,  happy cooking.
