What?! No solid food for six months?!

So I heard a rumor today. A horrible, horrible rumor. I heard that I won't be able to eat solid food for six months. Let me repeat that for you. SIX MONTHS. 180 DAYS (roughly). WHAT IS THAT?! A baby can blog from inside the womb, but she can't have a rack of ribs until she's six months old?! You know who I blame this on? Yep. The hippies.

Speaking of ribs, I heard about a killer recipe that I wanted to share with all of you:


  • Soak ribs, either pork or beef (recommendation: pork baby back ribs), overnight in ginger ale in the fridge (should be close to 100% covered by liquid).

  • Cover with foil and bake ribs, still in ginger ale, for 4 hours at 350 degrees (use disposable foil baking pans and placing them on cookie sheets for stability).

  • Remove from ginger ale carefully (they'll be slough-off tender) and refrigerate for at least four hours to help them solidify before grilling. Give them a preliminary coating of BBQ sauce at this point, while they're still hot.

  • Grill over med-high direct heat for about 10 minutes a side, slathering with a good BBQ sauce.

  • Remove from heat, gorge yourself.

This recipe is crowd-pleaser or my name isn't Lucy _____ Perry.
