A modern day Shel Silverstein
Welcome to Expanzaramadingdong, a phrase to say when things just don’t make sense. Jason Steinberg’s collection of poems will open up a world to children that gives insight to many of life’s wonders, such as growing old, being a tattletale and how to avoid being a failure. A world where you don’t have to be royalty to be treated like a queen, a world where you learn the dangers of being a fly on the wall, and a world where the Fountain of Youth really does exist. The fun & imaginative storytelling will provoke your mind, touch your soul and make you smile. If you like Where The Sidewalk Ends, you will love his new book.

Homemade meat sauce
The secrets to an addicting, reported-to-be-the-best-tasting spaghetti sauce in the entire world are: long simmering, lots of red wine and garlic salt, and a blend of ground beef (or turkey) and hot Italian sausage (no casings). After sautéing chopped onion, chopped bell peppers, sliced mushrooms, ground meat and sausage, stir in tomato puree/paste/sauce, bay leaf, wine, oregano, basil, sugar and freshly grated Romano. Simmer for 1½ hrs. Correct flavors to taste with wine, spices and/or garlic salt. Serve with extra cheese over hot cooked pasta. Notes: sauce can be refrigerated up to 5 days/frozen up to 3 mo; will taste even better the next day; can sub freshly grated Parmesan and use alt sweeteners; use wine you’d like to drink.
