Finished with my election work, and it felt good to turn my attention to the kitchen again, finally. Now if only the washing machine didn't almost catch fire yesterday (transmission blew)... Bolognese always just looks like a quick meal, but I always go full French mirepoix with it so it takes hours. ^^; Went for local flavor with CA heirlooms...super-umami, but it was lacking a bit of acid. Nothing that the killer balsamic I have couldn't fix with the perfect salad pair! Hastily taken because hungry and guest. The plates didn't fall, honest. #food #cooking #vegan #PlantBasedPredator
