God girl grill gridiron. Monday, August 31, 2009. Grotus Acorn: now, truly, a blog about vinegar. As you probably already know, The Joe Cribbs Car Wash is officially becoming a part of The War Eagle Reader's new Auburn website. You may also have seen that The War Eagle Reader was looking for writers. Long story cut short - I'll be putting all my Auburn-related blogging eggs in that basket as well. So for the folks who look here for football, look further to The War Eagle Reader. What will remain here?

Grotus' Acorn: Tonight's Menu
http://grotusacorn.blogspot.com/2009/11/tonights-menu.html
God girl grill gridiron. Sunday, November 8, 2009. Tonight, my dear wife and I celebrate our six months' wedding anniversary. Six months! So short and yet so long. We've been counting down to this particular anniversary for some time, because - colloquially - the folks who make it six months tend to make it for good. Poached salmon crepes with brie-dill veloute. Roasted butternut squash and golden beet. Earl Grey infused creme brulee. The broccolini, I just sauteed in butter and touched with a scant amou...

Grotus' Acorn: Tonight's menu : pie
http://grotusacorn.blogspot.com/2010/10/tonights-menu-pie.html
God girl grill gridiron. Friday, October 22, 2010. Tonight's menu : pie. I am not a violent person. But there is one particular situation that arises, year after year, that briefly pits father against son in my parents' home - a simple matter of greed. Ironically, this happens every year at Thanksgiving. Unironically, it involves my mother's pecan pie. There are certain things, good things, great things, for which it is difficult to be strictly thankful. What can be done, when a pie is as good as drugs?

Grotus' Acorn: Method for Quantifying Whole-Team Performance
http://grotusacorn.blogspot.com/2009/10/method-for-quantifying-whole-team.html
God girl grill gridiron. Thursday, October 8, 2009. Method for Quantifying Whole-Team Performance. The question is, what’s the best way to look at a team’s performance on the whole? This includes the offense and the defense: the offense’s forward progress can be expressed as positive yardage, and the defense’s as negative yardage. As we learned last year, the offense and defense are not distinct. I originally posted this at The War Eagle Reader. Where you can see the results. The Joe Cribbs Car Wash.

Grotus' Acorn: Finally discovered why I haven't ever watched an entire game of soccer... and why I won't ever again.
http://grotusacorn.blogspot.com/2010/06/finally-discovered-why-i-havent-ever.html
God girl grill gridiron. Saturday, June 26, 2010. Finally discovered why I haven't ever watched an entire game of soccer. and why I won't ever again. I did what any American twenty-something is bound to do: get on facebook. And almost immediately, I notice someone talking up the US-Ghana game set to start at 2:30. The die was cast. So I made some popcorn and grabbed a beer, and sat down for what would be my first and, most likely, last full soccer game. And why the last? It was clear even to me, neophyte...

Grotus' Acorn: Initiate
http://grotusacorn.blogspot.com/2007/11/initiate.html
God girl grill gridiron. Tuesday, November 20, 2007. I am a 26 year old engineer-by-training, MD, pediatrics resident, eventually to be a pediatric neurologist. The title of this blog is: Grotus' Acorn. It's taken from two poems by Seamus Heaney,. Both are worth reading. However, this isn't a blog exclusively about Heaney, poetry, or Irishmen. It's a blog that finds its inspiration between. Between two traditions, I hope to stand in the water. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Joe Cribbs Car Wash.

Grotus' Acorn: (Last Night's) Menu : braised pork, polenta, beets
http://grotusacorn.blogspot.com/2011/02/last-nights-menu-braised-pork-polenta.html
God girl grill gridiron. Sunday, February 13, 2011. Last Night's) Menu : braised pork, polenta, beets. Wine-braised pork with juniper, sage, lavender. Mushroom sage leek polenta. For the beets, I got two golden and two red beets. These I diced about a quarter-inch cubed, spread out in a single layer in a roasting pan, drizzled with olive oil and salt and baked at 400 until they were fork tender. At the very end, I drizzled a little Gran Marnier on for a little orange flavor. Optionally, orange liqueur).
