i tried a new style of ribs last night: i did a dry rub, baked and then finished them on the grill (ok technically the husband finished them on the grill). the dry rub was fantastic and easy: light brown sugar, paprika, kosher salt, pepper and garlic salt. rubbed that on both sides of the slab (after cutting off some extra fat), baked at 350 for about an hour. after an hour i pulled the ribs out, slathered them with some famous dave’s rich and sassy sauce and the husband finished with about fifteen minutes on the grill. absolutely fantastic and very easy.

i gotta say: i’m really not a fan of the action movies. i went in for one thing: kevin spacey. but i was honestly blown away. excellent movie! we saw it at an imax theatre and while i don’t think it was all that imax or 3D worthy, it was definitely a great flick!

fantastic (and quick!) read. aside from the fact that i’m a huge anderson cooper fan, this book really reminded me that in the united states we have more than we can ever use and honestly, need.
