A movie of a fun band with pizza-tossing antics.  Taken at a low 
resolution because it's recorded mainly for the music.
The chef and the pasta dish he just finished demonstrating how to cook.
The delicious dish.  Pasta tossed with a sauce made from (in the order he
added the ingredients) diced eggplant (previously salted and rinsed),
sliced garlic, diced zucchini and summer squash (patty pan), diced roma
tomatoes, and, at the last minute, chopped basil.  Olive oil gets added
throughout, especially when adding the zucchini.  It serves as part of the
base of the sauce.  The chef actually used beefsteak tomatoes, complaining
he couldn't find roma at the market this morning, and using the tale as a
jumping off point for talking about the importance of buying things fresh
(esp. most fruits and vegetables) and about his upbringing.  The
flavors melded very well.
