But enough of that. I'm here to post a foodblog entry. Today's food question is: "what do you do with leftover meatball hors d'ourves when the party's over?" And the answer is: "make spaghetti and meatballs with them."
Yeah, it's not terribly original, but it was delicious. :o) I whipped up a quickie sauce with a can of tomato sauce, a (chopped up) can of stewed tomatoes, some Italian sausage, and some Italian-type seasonings (basil, oregano, rosemary, garlic, etc.), to which I added the meatballs. Once that had come together and the meatballs were heated through, I put that on low and put a pot on the boil to make the noodles. Once those were done, I drained 'em and mixed them into the sauce. The finished product is what you see in the picture above.
It was good stuff, if I do say so myself. Nothing innovative (my cooking rarely is), but it tasted good and there was enough left over for us to take in our lunches tomorrow. The meatballs I didn't use today went in the freezer. Sometime in the future I may post other uses for leftover meatballs (hint: meatball subs may be involved).

That's some pretty red sauce. How many victims gave their blood so you could achieve that hue?
Moe: "Do you know how much of my blood and sweat went into this food?
Patrons: *spit out their food*
Moe: I meant that figuratively!
