Isn't it Ironic?

I spent the long, holiday weekend not cooking. Here's an example of what I didn't cook:



I also didn't make the cheese or hummus that we enjoyed with that bottle of wine. I was tailgaiting with friends at the Meadowlands before the Bruce Springsteen concert on Saturday night, and for some reason that translated to drinking wine and eating cheese. Duh!

But I did learn my new favorite New Jersey slogan: "We don't pump gas, we pump fists!" in that parking lot. Needless to say, our version of tailgaiting was a little different from most. We were looking pretty out of place sipping our Pinot Noir while the rest of the tailgaters enjoyed tube steaks and Coor's Light. Hey, we left the Riedel at home and drank out of red Solo cups just like everyone else!



Keep it classy, East Rutherford.

(And don't forget to buy your tickets for the final big concert at Giants Stadium before they tear it down!)
