From the NBC (and Bravo) reality series, The Restaurant.
Serves 4 as antipasto or over spaghetti
(20 balls)
For the seasoned stock mix:
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/2 large sweet onion
4 cloves garlic
1/2 bunch parsley, chopped
Place all ingredients in blender or food processor and puree.
For the meatballs:
1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground pork
1 lb ground veal
1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
3 whole eggs
1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano, grated
2-3 pinches chili flakes
2-3 pinches salt
4 cups marinara

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients (except extra virgin olive oil) with stock mix and mix with both hands until mixture is uniform. Do not over mix.
Put a little olive oil on hands and form mixture into balls a little larger than golf balls.
Pour about 1/2-inch of extra virgin olive oil into a straight-sided, wide sauté pan and heat over medium-high flame. Add the meatballs to the pan (working in batches if necessary) and brown meatballs, turning once.
Using
a slotted spoon, remove the meatballs from the oil and place them into
a saucepan of marinara (they should be submerged). Simmer for 30
minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and tender. Serve
alone or over spaghetti (in which case, increase marinara to 6 cups).

"Well", replied the sales clerk, "exactly what type of dress are you looking for?"
The bride to be said:, "A long frilly white dress with a veil."
The sales clerk didn't know quite what to say but she finally said,
"Frankly, madam, gowns of that nature are considered more appropriate
for brides who are being married the first time-for those who are a bit
more innocent, if you know what I mean?"
"Well" replied the customer, "I can assure
you that I am as innocent as the rest of them. Believe it or not,
despite all my marriages, I remain as innocent as any first time bride."
"You see, my first husband was so excited about our wedding he died as we were checking into our hotel.
"My second husband and I got into a terrible fight in the limo on our
way to the reception and have not spoken since. We had that wedding annulled immediately."
"What about your third husband?" asked the sales clerk.
"Well" said the woman, "he was a Texas Republican and every night for
four years he just sat on the edge of the bed and told me how good it
was going to be."
Tee hee.
