Tonight's dinner

Tonight's dinner was straight-up taken from my brother's blog: www.stuffweatetoday.blogspot.com - the Banh Mi recipe.  Check out his blog - it was AMAZING!  Delicious.  I took a couple of liberties with the recipe.

My brother told me how to use my food processor to turn the fresh pork into ground pork.  I can be lazy when it comes to fine chopping, so I just threw the green onions, basil, and garlic into the food processor, ground it all together for about 10 seconds, and hey presto, there we have it!  I opted to have mine without the extra peppers (I'm not the most tolerant of spices), but the hubs had his with the peppers, hot mayo, sriracha meatballs... We used a fresh baguette from the local bakery, which was also amazing, and retired to the couch to watch LOST on our new tv while hanging out with our kitties, Fuzzy and Chomp.

I'll post some pictures when I get them off of the camera, but for now, if you want, just go to my brother's blog :)

I was going to make this, too, and then start a blog called "Stuff Jack's Dad Inspired Us to Make." But I never really update the blog I have now, so I decided not to take that on. Looking forward to the photos!
