Going out for a ride (teaching DD2 to drive).
I put my sauce in 1-quart freezer bags. 2 Cups of sauce (16oz.) in each bag is enough for a pasta dinner for me & Mama. I also make a couple 20 oz. bags for when we had a 3rd person for dinner. I freeze the bags flat on a cookie sheet, then they stack nicely in the freezer.I'm putting half of this sauce in the freezer, so that I won't have to make it the next time that I want some!

Looks like you have a load of meat balls to roll around there! Haaaa....beats rollin around Snow Balls; and which we know, you will have plenty of them around for a while!!Completed spaghetti dinner!
Busy morning in the kitchen making sandwich thins & hotdog buns. While they were proofing, I cut up all the veggies for the pork stir fry for dinner.
Yep, I only use the butt steaks where all the nicely marbled meat (flavorful, dare I say?) resides. Lean pork chops tend to be drier than a popcorn fart, in my humble opinion, and don't have much flavor. I COULD use the lean meat, but I won't sacrifice my reputation with "she-who-must-be-obeyed" for making flavorful meals. Ya gotta have pork FAT to get flavor from pork meals.Joe, looks great!
Tina said, wow, nice looking pork meat. I told her, Joe uses pork steak cuts, and she said, well he could use lean pork loin chops.
Was I right about the pork ( butt ) steak cut?
My luck is on the loosing streak today. Must be the Friday the 13th thing!
I just tipped a hot cup of coffee on my lap while dunking coconut bars in it! Ouch! Hot stuff!!!
Thanks Joe!!.... I remember you saying that about the pork fat way back when.Yep, I only use the butt steaks where all the nicely marbled meat (flavorful, dare I say?) resides.

Tina will probably outlive both of us from healthy pork choices, but I know they'll have to wipe the smile off my face in my coffin because I loved my piggy based meals with piggy fat for flavor. I want to go happy, not missing the simple joys in life.
FWIW, the breads I made today had 2T of pork lard instead of butter. Mmmmmmmmm...
