  1. A red sauce really needs no tomato paste at all. IMO. And generally more garlic is better.
  2. Basic red sauce 20 tomatoes diced 1/2 cup olive oil 6 cloves of garlic thinly sliced 6 whole cloves of garlic salt, pepper and cayenne Heat the oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the sliced garlic (should be bubbling oil around the garlic). Do NOT brown the garlic. Add the diced tomatoes and whole garlic cloves. Add salt and pepper but not too much as you will add more later to taste. Keep on medium heat and keep stirring. You're going to cook those diced tomatoes all the way down into a sauce. At least 3-4 hours. At the end add salt and pepper to taste and cayenne as you prefer to your level. I just put a very light dusting of cayenne in mine. This is an al' aglione sauce which is a Tuscan red sauce. When you cook your pasta move the pasta straight from the water into the sauce allowing a little water to get in with the pasta and sauce. This will help the sauce bind to the pasta. Enjoy!
  3. Checo goes to Miami
  4. It's about 2 hours. Then you wait for the ferry if your timing is off.
  5. Time for Ferrari to give us that next level of engine power they alluded to after Bahrain.
  6. It amazes me how light they are for how big they are.
  7. Race week, bitches! Let's go!
  8. Well that’s total bullshit. Research Amex travel partners and where you can transfer points. The Amex travel portal isn’t horrible either. Do a little legwork.
  9. Me! I’ll be there.
  10. Same here. We're dong the Spain trip we cancelled in 2020 in May and next year we're heading back to Italy. Cannot wait.
  11. Me either.
  12. It's more than that. You have to use two different tire compounds in the race. Great, great drive by Albon. Good for him. LeClerc is the class of the field at this point. Not only does he have the fastest car but his driving (eliminating of mistakes) has gone up a notch or two. I disagree about it being a boring race. The mid field racing was excellent once again.
  13. One report said that he had an accident with another car and got out to check damage. Of course, nothing is confirmed yet. Still, if you see an accident by the side of the road move over a lane. If you can't move over then slow the fuck down and get your hazard lights on.
  14. I ordered 6 cases from my favorite little vineyard in Gaiole in Chianti this week. Cannot wait for to to arrive.
  15. This is why I go back. Among other reasons.

    Roatan

    We've stayed on Roatan twice and rented a villa on West Bay Beach. The bad. Coxen Hole is a shithole. Avoid it at all costs. The good. The rest of the island for the most part is awesome. West Bay Beach is a pretty beach with tons of restaurants on it. Accommodations range from not so cheap to a cheap diving hotel right on the beach. If you are a diver it's much cheaper to stay on the island and book your dives. A different eating spot is Cal's Temporary Cantina. What Cal lacks in personality he makes up in cooking chops. A day trip to the east end (undeveloped) side of the island makes for a nice day.
  17. My favorite chicken dish in the world. Glad you found it. We love that place. It's such a simple delicious dish.
  18. Yep, We've decided just to do private drivers between a couple of cities in Spain. It's not much worse than renting a car without any of the hassle.
  19. It's Rodeo Drive on steroids and at 5 PM the beautiful people gather in the main piazza for cocktails before dinner. What's not to like other than the fact that it is $$$$$.
  20. I will be there for the Spanish Grand Prix and that will consume most of my time. Ferrari!!
  21. Piednmonte.
  22. Yep. Italy is a tough cover. I could spend a year there and scratch the surface of the places I want to explore.
  23. Nearly four hours each way for a day trip and one that is on treacherous roads for the last part of the drive? No thank you.
  24. I know you guys love him because he loves Texas but I think he's lost a step. Great personality. Driver who job hops regularly for money and didn't give several teams time to develop the car under him. JMO.
  25. If McLaren could just get their shit together with the new car it could be incredible racing. I do think Danny Ric has to go after this year. He just doesn't have it anymore IMO.
