I've decided I'm going to marry myself, and not in the creepy Dennis Rodman way. I just want to make sweet sweet love to myself in a legally binding union. This is what I did:

First I baked the potatoes, then riced them, let it cool for a bit then mixed in eggs, nutmeg, chopped basil and a bit of milk and flour. I rolled it, shaped it and set it aside. Fresh gnocchi.

As if that weren't enough, next I thinly sliced one onion and carmelized it in butter with a bit of nutmeg. Then I added chopped prosciutto and fresh sage, and let it sizzle for a few minutes. I added vodka and fresh organic cream, and let it simmer until thickened.

While the sauce cooked down, I boiled the gnocchi, then tossed it into the sauce. It is officially the most delicious thing I've ever made, and it goes beautifully with this New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a date with my sweetheart (me).
