"variety meats" anyone???

just came back from thanksgiving weekend at home home and can't believe the number of recipes that need to be done!!

518 in total with a whopping 111 different pasta dishes... -- incredibile!!

definitely starting to have my doubts about this project... every heard of "variety meats"??? yup, that's a chapter in the book and includes such delicacies as calf brain, liver and kidney. uh... anybody know any good butchers in the north london area? because i'm going to say that those lovely cuts of meat aren't going to be able at my local Loblaws...

also, holy do they love pasta! i mean, i realized that it was important, but not until i counted up the recipes in this book, did i realize the extent! i've really got to get cracking on this!

ooo, on a fun note, went beserk at nofills over the weekend! bought fennel or finocchio and atichokes to start trying out the recipes, but alas, never got a chance to actually start... :( was so looking forward to it! however, do not fret!! it will begin!! (you know, once i get more than 1 egg and 3 apples in my fridge! hahaha!!!)
