Also, two of the pork belly dishes - Hoisin and the Carbonara need to be finished today. The carbonara needs to set for a day or two before eating.....

Painters will be here tomorrow (yes, Sunday) to hopefully undo some damage to the property---graffiti. I will give them chicken sandwiches for a snack.

I am thinking about a pulled pork pizza. I want to play with my stone ground wheat flour.

Ah! Perfect Roast Chicken! Definitely a do-again!
I just love this pork recipe. It sounds complicated, but it's really easy. And I get to use a vanilla bean that I just got from Olive Nation! It makes the kitchen smell so good!
