Homemade Bolognese

The bolognese on top of the pappardelle pasta you see below is meaty and flavorful and the recipe at the link below says it makes eight servings but that's likely a lowball number.  The one ingredient you must be careful with is the cinnamon.  Try folding in a little bit at a time so you don't go overboard.  Cinnamon is the ingredient that gives Cincinnati-style chili its distinctive taste and too much might be a turnoff.  If you're looking for a new warm-your-belly winter dish, give this one a try.

Titleist TS2

New golf clubs are expensive enough, but buying a new top-of-the-line driver is ridiculous.  Instead, I opted for the demo Titleist TS2 on sale at Walnut Grove Country Club for $200.  The shaft and the top of the club are in mint condition and there are only a few minor marks on the bottom of the club which is to be expected.  I pick up about 25+ years of newer technology over the TaylorMade R580XD it replaces.  Hopefully, that makes up for me being 25+ years older.

One-Way Airfares

I recently read Clark Howard's article (link below) about trying to combine one-way fares to get a better price and it paid off booking last week's flights to and from Las Vegas.  Not only did we get a decent price, but the flight to Vegas on Delta and the Spirit flight back to Dayton both took off in the early afternoon and were direct flights.  I wouldn't recommend splitting carriers if the flights aren't direct, as any delay that causes you to miss your connection would be on your dime.

I didn't have an image for this blog so I asked the Grok AI tool (available inside Twitter/X) to create "a mashup of the Delta Airlines and Spirit Airlines logos" and that's what you see below.
