My good friend, Graham and I met through WordPress waaaaaay back in 2019.  He was a veteran web poster when I first stumbled upon his food blog and I remember reading his “About Me” page for the first time and thinking, “Wow, there’s another dad in the world who likes to cook for his family!”  I started following his blog and commenting on his posts and, not so long after that, he started following my blog.

It didn’t take long for me to get the hang of posting recipes and visiting other sites to see what others were up to, and before I knew it, I was following lots of people and people even started following me. 

I have to say that Graham has always graciously posted comments about the things I post, and his commentary contains colorful prose like:

“You have exactly the same recipe as I do, which is strange or maybe normal.”

and…

“Great recipe and one I would totally enjoy eating but can never make, my wife hates olives. Will remember to eat the next time I am eating alone.”

and…

“That really looks good even given it’s chicken.  I prefer Kung Pao beef.”

Graham and I trade good-natured barbs as well as good advice in equal proportions, which, in my opinion, makes us good friends.

By now, even Graham is probably thinking, “What does any of this have to do with Mac and Cheese?”

Well, here are the last two comments I received from Graham:

So now, without further ado, I present a link to a Mac and Cheese recipe that I posted waaaaaay back in 2020.

Easter – Mac and Cheese

I recreated this recipe a few days ago, but as anyone who knows me, I had to change it up a bit.  I used equal parts Cheddar and Gruyere cheese.

Here’s a picture of the finished product.

So, there you go, Graham.  Are you happy now?!

I’ll end with what might be my favorite comment from Graham…

“LOL!  I think it’s just because you’re a want-a-be Canadian. You’re too much like me sometimes, just grab what’s in the fridge and make something out of it that ends up tasting good.”

Indeed! Good night all, and good night, Graham.
