Jon and I love going to the store together. On one of our first trips he saw these marrow bones in the butcher’s case. He decided that for our last dinner before they left we should make marrow bones.

Okay, I find a pretty simple looking recipe and we go back to the store at the end of the week to buy the bones. We explain to the butcher how we want them cut. He asks us what kind of dog we have. We burst out laughing explaining that the bones are for us. He admits that he has never sold the bones to people before. They ring up as pet bones.

Pet bones

Roasted marrow bones with parsley, onions, and garlic and a crusty piece of bread

Pretty tasty and not very expensive!
