Every once in a while, though, I like to do a fancier, silkier, yolk-y cream sauce version with diced pancetta instead of standard bacon. This evening, I even had bucatini pasta to make it just like Chef Linton Hopkins says I should. It was pretty darned amazing. You've only seen this on a Roediger House Menu twice before: Meal No. 603 and Meal No. 496. It's a rare treat.
Temps are turning and with today's cold rain lasting for hours and hours, I had to make a pot of hot coffee and also light up a late afternoon fire. I get older, and I get colder. Here's its final dying stage just before bedtime:
