Everything Old Is New Again: Braised Lamb Shank Pappardelle

Most of my posts offer some sort of instructions for how to make a dish. Not this one. This one is all about how you can't quite make this dish, and neither can I again, probably. This is all about the leftovers, the creative combination thereof, and the delicious that can arise.

Butter-Poached Lobster Is Just As Delicious As You Imagine It Would Be

It's all Whole Foods' fault. I made the ridiculous mistake of going grocery shopping while hungry, and they were giving out samples of lobster tail. I ate the bite, and I was sold. I can't control myself around lobster. I love the stuff. It must be my New Hampshire upbringing; all those lobster rolls I ate in my youth. Plus it was $3 off the usual price per tail! Which made each tail only expensive, instead of absurdly expensive.
