So, what did ya'll have for dinner tonight?

[Paul B]

gonna be sushi tonight. :D

[JamesTX]

Every year for Christmas, my dad and stepmother would get a bunch of homemade tamales for us. THis year, the lady that would make them decided to retire. Well, my wife and I decided that it was too good of a tradition to let die, so we made them ourselves. We made 13 dozen - took half a day. Hopefully, we will get more efficient later on.

They were good though.

[MasterBlaster]

I've never had a good tamale in my life. Bleagh.

[JamesTX]

Make them yourself - you can add more meat so they aren't as dry. Actually, I don;t recommend that anyone do it - it's a pain in the ass.

[Big A]

Venison sausagemeat "toad in the hole".... lovely:|:

[brendonv]

Brought my hunny out to "The Melting Pot", I'm stuffed.

[TC3]

Beer.

[CurSedVoyce]

Subway... Then Beer :D

[sotc]

i love homemade tamales! you really cant get fast at it, its a slow process. we had tacos tonight!!

[Mr. Sir]

Brought my hunny out to "The Melting Pot", I'm stuffed.

I LOVE that place. Haven't been in a while tho. The first 4 or 5 times I went, I was too stuffed for dessert. Then we started going JUST for the dessert. Yummy! :|:

[Che]

Only the guys and me home tonight, Christmas Eve. I was busy baking and such so I told them they needed to fix dinner. They remembered some frozen Little Caesar's pizza leftover from a pizza & movie Scout night. Bleaghhhhhh!

I just found out a good combo though: good, soft black licorice and this white (blush?) wine.

[Newfie]

Christmas Eve tradition with my family. Lobster,steamers,chowder and shrimp. Parents can be cool sometimes.;)

[CurSedVoyce]

I was supposed to do clam chowder tonight and prime rib tomorrow. But I had to pick my girls at the hospital today and bring them home... So pizza worked for tonight :)
And beer of course :D

[CurSedVoyce]

Prime rib sandwiches served on garlic bread with au jus like a french dip ... Hell yeah! :D

[Paul B]

lemme see, tonight was leftover stuff, yesterday was baked ham and fixins, day before yesterday was lovely seafood and fixins, day before that was sausages and taters. Its been a good holiday season so far. :)

[Mr. Sir]

Rotisserie chicken, in my new kitchen cooking gadget. :|:

[Skwerl]

What's everybody else having, Brett? That little bird looks like a nice meal for 2, but you'll need a bigger oven to cook for your tribe. :P

I'm having chicken as well, I grabbed a box of hot wings and a jug of iced tea from the grocery store deli. :)

[Paul B]

we r going to make chicken satay with peanut sauce, rice on the side. Thai noodle salad on the other side. :)

That yard bird is almost 6 pounds. :|: It does look small in the picture, though. :?

That sounds friggen awesome Paul! Yummm
And I have no idea what we are doing yet.. LOL

[OTGBOSTON]

Christmas Eve tradition with my family. Lobster,steamers,chowder and shrimp. Parents can be cool sometimes.;)

I thought the seven fish meal was for Italians:P

[Paul B]

There is a hockey game on TV starting at 4, I have suggested ordering in a pizza pie (http://www.panago.com/home.html) from the local (120 feet from our front door) place. :)

[squisher]

Went out to the Phoenix Steakhouse tonight. Stuffed and bloated. Filet with prawns for me and a sirloin with seafood sauce for the wife. Fully loaded baked potatoes and salad, and some calamari to start. Damn! Kiddo is at the grandparents.8)

http://www.thephoenixsteakhouse.com/phoenix.swf

[CurSedVoyce]

Ham dinner at the folks for a late Christmas/early New Years with my younger sister's family and mine :) Was a cool time for all :)

[Paul B]

chicken breast with lefty spicy peanut sauce mixed in to a mandarin thai noodle salad with lettuce and greens. :D mmm good!

[vharrison]

Paul, I bet you are a great cook!

[Paul B]

I try but its a joint effort, most times we do ok. :)
Last night we had jumbo prawns with garlic butter, white rice and another thai mandarin salad, the inlaws were over for the eve.
Then for snacks we made jalapeno poppers, cheese, garlic coil and crackers, veggies and dip, some chips and then later a nice piece of Stliton with Port.
Only surprise was that pops in law bought a bottle of white wine port, he didnt realize it till I opened and poured a glass. :)

Was a good night.
Happy new year y'all!

[Che]

So far, so good. Trying to eat a bit leaner. I sure wish I could wean my family from Friday night pizza....they're gone tonight so I had a LEAN hamburger and a big salad.

[CurSedVoyce]

Left over Chowda from last night :D

[Paul B]

steak, taters and asparagus spears... :D

[MasterBlaster]

Italian sausage, hamburger, and chicken breast.

[hmm]

left over - roast pork loin

and a tall glass of OJ over ICE

[Paul B]

turned out ok, all done on the BBQ of course :D

[Mr. Sir]

Mmmm, that looks tasty. Is that the child's portion... or are you just a lil' feller? :P

[MasterBlaster]

Paul eats like a bird.

[Paul B]

Heck, I had a big glass of water with it. :P
Ask me how many diets I have gone on in my life to lose weight ;-)

[Skwerl]

Looks like a nice snack, Paul. Where's the rest of it? :lol:

I had three bun-size keilbasa sausages with mustard, relish and cheese on potato buns.

[MasterBlaster]

Heck, I had a big glass of water with it. :P
Ask me how many diets I have gone on in my life to lose weight ;-)


Post a pic of your abs. :drink:

[sotc]

taco salad and punkin pie

[Paul B]

no abs, I exercise as much as I diet.

edit: actually the last few months I have been walking Bub (almost) each day, I guess that counts as a bit of cardio work, a brisk pace but nowhere near jogging. Havent lifted any weights or done situps in a couple years or so. I think if I stay slow and quiet work wise I should start to do something at least.

[MasterBlaster]

That's my game plan. On the days that I'll work, I don't even look at the treadmill. But if I don't work...

[sotc]

a little flab keeps you warm in the winter:D

[MasterBlaster]

But we don't have winters down here! :whine:

[Paul B]

making a double cheeseburger and a chicken burger (for the wife) on the grill right now for some lunch, teriyaki beef steak with rice is planned for supper. Snowing, cold, crappy out. I am outside grilling in -2C, at least I am under cover. :D

edit: added pics. I managed to eat the whole thing, I did walk around the table a couple times about 3/4 of thw way through though.

[MasterBlaster]

AWESOME T shirt!!! :rockon:

[Skwerl]

Fantastic looking grill, Paul. Nice that you can actually use it now that you're allowed access to your patio again. :)

[Paul B]

I certainly missed cooking over fire. it was a long year without. I am still getting used to cooking on such a large grill, getting to know the hotspots etc.

MB, I have another tee shirt like that only black with white writing, then another white one with color print! Wicked! :D

[sotc]

im a coal burner but thats is a sweet looking grill and a yummy looking burger! some grilled tofu for stig any where?

[Paul B]

No tofu but I am looking forward to making a portabello burger again. :D
And I want to use the grill to smoke something, maybe a brisket, thats a summer thing though, with an extra tank of propane handy.

[Underwor]

Tonight was the annual Wildlife Club wild game feed. Venison, Elk, Turkey, Pheasant and a few other road kills. A good time was had by all. They give away a couple of 870 Rem. shotguns and various other prizes in a landowner appreciation drawing. I invested in the future of hunting, no wins though.
The brisk walk to and from the event in -15F temps helped build the appetite and tempered the "sody pop" that was consumed with the meal. All in all a great night.

[MasterBlaster]

Sausage and hamburger, wrapped in (2%, of course!) cheese! http://www.thecomputermechanics.com/forums/images/smilies/168.gif

[sotc]

pork steak and pesto raviolis

[CurSedVoyce]

Pot roast :) Yummm

[Paul B]

hmm, I made pancakes for breakfast, just had lunch, made a leftovers hash of sorts. Some roast potatoes from last nights dinner, chopped up garlic coil from new years eve, tomato, spinach, broccoli, green pepper, red onion, few red pepper flakes, crack of sea salt, crack of black pepper, fry it up in a pan with a bit of olive oil, BAM, more room in the fridge. :)

And a big glass of water to make sure I felt full. :P

Dinner might be a take on jambalaya but over noodles instead of with rice. A perversion of this (Fusilli New Orleans (http://www.antonspastabar.com/dinner.htm)) recipe.

[MasterBlaster]

Damn, you don't even fill the bowl. You're gonna dry up and blow away!

[Skwerl]

Looks like the beginnings of a nice meal, all you need is about a half pound of beef tips stirred in there. :P

[Paul B]

Its a deceptively large bowl, it might even be a little bit magic! I had to keep the other stuff to potato ratio at a certain point as they were the limited commodity. It tasted good, thats for sure.

We have a wind warning up for this eve, 60 to 90Kmh, guess I shouldn't go for that walk up to the mall I had planned? :P

[Paul B]

yum, supper turned out nicely. Jumbo shrimp, scallops, two different types of sausage, red & green pepper and chopped onion deglazed in tomato paste and white wine. spiced a bit then tossed with noodles. Topped with a handful of fresh grated parmesan.

[CurSedVoyce]

Went over to Aunt Sheila's for dinner tonight and Horton Hears A Who... Had Potato Ham and Broccoli soup. Was good and the movie was great. Loved it:thumbup:

[hmm]

SUSHI

PaulB - they look yummy and like the pictures on some menus.

[arborworks1]

Corndogs

Paul that last meal looks excellent.

[Paul B]

mmmm. Quiche (from Costco) and a big salad... lettuce, spinach, grapes, shredded carrots, red onion, bacon, radishes, green pepper, fresh parmesan 'flakes', mandarin dressing. :)

[CurSedVoyce]

Saute of Bacon, Butternut Squash, and Green Onion with linguine alfredo :)

[wiley_p]

Garlic stuffed Whitefish.

[hmm]

roasted pork lion again

GEE i have to talk to that cook.

OH Wait, never mind

[Paul B]

chicken wraps.

grilled seasoned chicken breast, spinach, lettuce, green pepper, green onion, cheeze and a whole wheat tortilla shell. Mmmm good. A bit of El Paso sauce and a couple of squirts of hot sauce make it ever so yummy. :D

[vharrison]

Paul, you are a good cook!

[hmm]

PaulB photos are just great

here is one (not my meal)

[Paul B]

Red X Hmmm.
we had beef roast (with home made horse radish from my momma in law) with taters and veggies today. here is a pic of my first plate, I had another but didnt take a pic, sorry. :P

then I took Bub for a 2.65Km walk. :)

[Skwerl]

I didn't think you ate much beef, Paul. Thought you were almost one of those vegitenarians or something. :P

Tired and lazy tonight. Didn't feel like going out so I had 2.5 tuna fish sammiches (about what you get out of two cans of tuna). Jazzed it up with sweet relish, mayo and cheese. Livin' high tonight! :lol:

[Paul B]

nope, not at all, I love cow meat. and chicken, turkey etc. I also like lots of veggies, go figure!

edit: oh, we had a delissio pizza (http://www.kraftcanada.com/en/Products/D-F/DelissioPizza.aspx)tonight, four cheese, rising crust. I dolled it up with some slices of shallots, a few bits of cheddar, some diced green pepper and a couple slices of the lefty roast beef chopped up. :D was Delissio!!

[Paul B]

yesterday was perogies with bacon etc, a spinach and stuff salad beside, tonight will be beef skewers (aka satay) with peanut sauce, rice and a green salad of some sort. :)

[MasterBlaster]

That's five bites of food.

[Paul B]

If you can stuff three perogies in your mouth at once then yup. :) tweet tweet!

[MasterBlaster]

OK maybe a couple more bites... :|:

[Paul B]

:D its all good Boss.

[CurSedVoyce]

Paul... From a retired chef... You sure make some nice eats mang ;)

[Paul B]

We watch a lot of food network. :)
thanks tho. Actually we just try to do different stuff as much as possible. I had a mother that made like 10 dishes over and over.

the meal, and the spicy junk I put it my peanut sauce, Sambal Oelek, indonesian chili pepper junk, a thimblefull in a pot of rice will sweat most folks up good. :D

[CurSedVoyce]

My mom and Grandma used to cook the bee jeezus out of everything.. I like too cook with the Chinese chili paste in liu of what you used there.. or try some different peppers out of the garden that we grow here. :D

[woodworkingboy]

Six different toppings PIZZA. I often have strange nonsensical dreams after eating pizza. The last time I had to protect my wife from being chased by negroes....must be the dough :D

[MasterBlaster]

I haven't had a slice since I started my weight loss program. Normally, I have it two, three times a week.

[Skwerl]

I haven't had pizza in a couple months, too dang expensive compared to my other options.

[Paul B]

I buy the Kraft Dellissio pizzas at the local grocery on sale for like $6, a bit of extra fixins and they can be pretty good. Cheaper than delivery and not far off on taste. :)
oh, tonight is some last minute spaghetti, planing on some wings tonight for a snack :D

[Skwerl]

I had wings for dinner, the Chink carryout place has good wings.

Lunch was a cheesesteak sub at Chili's. The house mover guy always buys lunch for the crew after a move. :)

[Paul B]

:) I like to makey my own wings.
I like hot sauce wings, wifey likes teriyaki or salt and pepper, they are on deck for maybe 8 or 9pm when the TV gets good.

edit:
time for wings and jalapeno poppers!

[hmm]

flavored water with veggies AKA soup

[Paul B]

BBQ bratwurst, mashed taters (from flakes, blah) with gravy (from a packet, also blah) and corn. :)

oops, kinda charred one of the sausages... :(

[squisher]

I just ordered pizza!!!

That brat is looking...........not underdone anyways.:P

[Dave Shepard]

It's not that burnt. Looks good. That horseradish on the side?

[MasterBlaster]

I like em that way just fine! http://www.thecomputermechanics.com/forums/images/smilies/168.gif

[Paul B]

just one side got a bit charred, its mamma in law homemade horseradish, and grainy dutch mustard. :) turned out ok, finished my plate and ready for a snack in a couple hours. :D

[Cobleskill]

Meatloaf, mashed taters, half a baked acorn squash, and homemade bread.

[MasterBlaster]

Jimmy Dean sausage topped with cheese, sweet Italian sausage, hamburger topped with cheese, and ham chunks.

Tasty! http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_2_103v.gif

[Paul B]

that does sound good MB. Do you grill all that stuff or cook it otherwhere? I love using my bbq.

[squisher]

I was just giving ya some razz too Paul. I've been in that kind of a mood tonight.:/:

I'd a devoured that sausage!

[MasterBlaster]

I cook all the meat up at once on the G. Foreman grill that Che gave me.

Thanks, Che! http://www.thecomputermechanics.com/forums/images/smilies/party.gif

[Paul B]

cool. the one thing I dont like about making multi dish meals, dishes.... :(

[MasterBlaster]

Whoa, 4 minutes work... LOOK OUT! :\:


:lol:

[Paul B]

ha! I know!
:D

[NeTree]

Fried chicken, black-eyed peas, greens, and watermelon. :P

[oldschool]

two chilli dogs with cheese and french vanilla coffee

[Skwerl]

So you're sleeping alone tonight? :lol:

I like Erik's idea, I may head out and grab a box of fried chicken tonight. It seems appropriate.

[oldschool]

[Skwerl]

[Paul B]

some sort of salad with chucnks of pan fried chicken.

lunch was an ahi tuna burger with spinach salad. I had to go to a trade show today, was the first food joint we encountered outside the venue.

[sotc]

outback steakhouse!

[Cobleskill]

Pork chops, homemade mac and cheese, and coleslaw. Cabbage came from a big field that butts up to my field. Big farmer (1000 acres) wasn't going to get it before it froze, so I loaded up. Free cabbage for all.

[Stumper]

I had pizza last night. I was supposed to eat with Cathy tonight but she has to go to the Doctor 1st-She is pretty miserable-nothing going in is coming out. I don't know if she will feel up to eating anything.

[CurSedVoyce]

Soup probably.. Kids had mac and cheese.. They have awanis to go to at the church so keeping it simple.

[Paul B]

Justin, it might be Meds doing that, no miracle cures from me but if Bub could talk he would sympathize for sure ;)

We are having a Delissio pizza tonight, Spicy chicken deluxe, rising crust (http://www.kraftcanada.com/en/Products/D-F/DelissioPizza.aspx)(dolled up with mushrooms and fresh grated parmesan), schedules and such made making a good dinner to much hassle.

[Paul B]

steak, taters with butter and green onions, little bit of garlic cheese bread, broccoli and cheese whiz (light of course), mushrooms with garlic, butter and shallots. :D mmm good.

[MasterBlaster]

That looks like a good starter plate! http://www.thecomputermechanics.com/forums/images/smilies/168.gif

and my friend PAID

[CurSedVoyce]

Burrito.. early dinner on the way to a tree in a driveway call.. Guessing soup tonight at about 10:30. Butchered some sirloin butt for future meals and took some flank and made a teriyaki marinade for Sunday to soak it in :D

[Paul B]

tonight was a lefties special. Wife took some leftover spaghetti sauce, mixed in some beans and other stuff and turned out a nice chili. That and some buns with butter, parmesan and bit of spices made for a nice suppertime. :)

[CurSedVoyce]

Baked turkey with cornbread stuffing, saute of spaghetti squash and chive nest with steamed mashed butternut squash, corn and gravy. Had Aunt Shiela and Mara over for dinner tonight also. I will be cooking over there (next door) tomorrow. I marinated some flank steak in a home made teriyaki marinade last night ;)
And I have to redo the photo AGAIN.. :? There fixed :what:

[CurSedVoyce]

Teriyaki marinaded flank steak seared and roasted. Served with a garlic demi glaze for oven roasted potato halves skin on with herbes de provence and coleslaw.. :D

[wiley_p]

[MasterBlaster]

This ain't the Sayings Thread! :what:


:lol:

[Dave Shepard]

That looks dang good, but it needs something to go with it, but I'm not sure what. Maybe some biscuits or cornbread or something.

I had a great sausage grinder for dinner, with some garlic bread with melted mozzarella cheese. Next, I'm having some homemade chili.:/:

[Skwerl]

Steak and Shake, I was in the mood for a double and a chocolate shake. :P

[CurSedVoyce]

Katy is making biscuits and gravy tonight.. .YUMMMM :D

[Paul B]

Just cleaned up a mess of chicken wings, saving those to cook up during the football game later, then likely a bit of pizza at suppertime.
For the wings I will dress some in sea salt and pepper, some in honey garlic sauce, some in BBQ sauce and of course some for me, in a hot sauce mix. I had been just splashing Louisiana hot sauce or some other such product on them but I saw a cooking show he other week and they took a bit of butter and melted it in to a small pot of Franks Red Hot, I tried it, I like it! :D

[Stumper]

Had a late lunch of soup and salad so supper was a slice of pie and a cup of Three Peckered Billy Goat.



That is a premium coffee blend-I not you kid.

[MasterBlaster]

I had meat with cheese.

Mmmmmm. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_2_103v.gif

[Chisel Tooth]

Big ole chefs salad, diced smoked ham on top.

[CurSedVoyce]

Made some Jambalaya tonight.. Haven't done that in a while and the young ones have never had it.. They chowed it up... :D

[MasterBlaster]

Jambalaya in Cali? Puh-lease! You don't even have any bayous, or gators!

[CurSedVoyce]

No just rattle snakes, bob cats and mountain lions.. LOL
Oh and bears.. Don't forget the bears..LOL
Yeah, frozen shrimp sux :(

[MasterBlaster]

Hell buddy, thaw 'em out and cook 'em first! ;)

[CurSedVoyce]

HAHAHA... I meant I like fresh better.. More flavor... Same with crawfish. I might do it with some scallops next time too.

Gonna have to teach the Mrs. how to make black eyed peas too..
Aunt Sheila made the last batch... not bad... Just ain't how I was brought up on em ;) Could have used some corn bread too :)

[CurSedVoyce]

Pork stir fry over rice... Lots of veggies in it ... Very Yummy :)
It was Katy's birthday dinner :D

[Che]

I bought a big package of frozen Stouffer's Lasagana when it was on sale a few months ago (serves 12, $7.50) I asked some ladies that were grabbing them up if they were good. They said they were.

I cooked it last night. They were wrong.


(IMHO, of course.)

[MasterBlaster]

It's skimpy on meat, for sure. I could easily eat one of those "family" size meals, but I don't do that anymore.

[cybergeek23851]

Last night was chicken curry.


Between the lebanese, thai, indian, italian, and american food that I've had this week... I've got a UN meeting in the colon. :D

[Cobleskill]

It sux having the appetite but not the metabolism to burn it off.

Had burgers with onion, tomato, pickles, and mustard. Coleslaw with vinegar, oil, dry mustard, and celery seed.

[Paul B]

BBQ chicken breast, salad (spinach and romaine leaves with carrots and grapes dressed in dijon dressing with olive oil), rice (cooked in chicken stock), spicy bread with parmesan and a glass of red vino! 90% of it from scratch. :D

I love eggs cheese and chili... I do mine like a chili size... :)
I have no idea what is for dinner tonight...

[hmm]

salad

again

[Skwerl]

Calzone from a different pizza joint than my usual place. The last few pizzas from Anthony's have been awfully skimpy with little sauce and less cheese. They have also been burnt (cooking faster due to less ingredients). I'm on the hunt for a new pizza place and this one isn't bad. Their pizza is just ok but their calzone is quite good.
:D

[MasterBlaster]

I haven't had pizza since I started my weight loss thang. I was having it at least twice a week.

[CurSedVoyce]

Baked Chicken :D
I love calzone.. Used to be a place in Westboro MA that made awesome calzone.. Had to have it at least once a week :D

Homemade pizza here.

Just got home from McDonalds.... I know you guys are jealous.:|:

Ugh, that was nasty!

[sotc]

took my wife here last night http://www.jacksonvilleinn.com/rest.htm
i had fillet with potobellas and she had cream cheese stuffed chicken breast

[Skwerl]

Rotisserie chicken from the grocery store deli. It's messy but slightly better for me than the fried chicken. According to the scales by the store entrance, I'm almost as heavy as I've ever been in my life, almost 190. Back when I was climbing full time and drinking my dinner I stayed around 165-170. I was actually down to about 175 at one point last year but all the down time has resulted in me putting on weight. :(

[cory]

I had 2 toasted tuna with lettuce sandwiches. Not real good actually. For some reason tuna with oil instead of with water was in stock, and it was a little gross. Pepperidge Farm milanos for desert. Those were tasty.


I was a manager there for 5 years. I ain't jealous! ;)

That's a little hard to envision, MB, give us a story or two.

[MasterBlaster]

Dealing with the public, I've got a million stories. Actually, I was one of those "higher up" managers, kinda cool. I had 1/2 dozen or more managers under me. Mickey Dees sent me to two different week long schools, all expenses paid.

[CurSedVoyce]

Katy went out and picked some fresh spinach and defrosted some sirloin. I am going to make some stir fry with that and some other veggies tonight :)

Well dang boss. you're all formally trained in food service.. Who wudda thunk it.

MB,was this BT, before treework?

[MasterBlaster]

I started treework after the Navy, but between then and now I've worked in the food and beverage, offshore and workboat industrys. :drink:

Left over spaghetti cause I was too lazy to make the lasagna LOL

[Paul B]

sushi take out. :) 2 salmon rolls, one spicy tuna roll and one order of spicy agadashi for me.

[Paul B]

Buffalo chicken salad. :)

large chicken breast cut up and browned, lettuce, green pepper, chunks of cheddar, tomato chunks, melt a bit of butter into some hotsauce (I blended three types) and pile it up!

edit: oops, forgot to mention the chips, I cut up a whole wheat tortilla (with flax seeds, my wife bought them, not me) and toasted it to crisp. :)

[CurSedVoyce]

Yummy Paul..

Soft tacos here :D

[MasterBlaster]

Not enough yardbird!!!

[CurSedVoyce]

I am assuming Yard bird is chicken ... LOL

[hmm]

i like the step by step photos


SUSHI here again

[Paul B]

the layers were going to be hidden below, I wanted to be thorough. :)

MB, I hear ya, it was a large chicken breast but a big eater could likely eat at least two or more. I must admit, at the end of the plate the ho sauce caught up to me, I wouldnt have been able to eat any more. :)

[stehansen]

I had black bass fillets dipped in egg and a mixture of flour and corn meal and frozen corn.

[Paul B]

sounds interesting, no pics? :)

[stehansen]

Nope, no pics. It wasn't very photogenic anyway. No color.

[Dave Shepard]

I had a giant greek salad. I love those olives, but they shorted me my pepperoncinis.

[Chisel Tooth]

Fried potatoes and onions, boned pork steak in a butter sauce, served with mixed veggies and biscuits.

[Mr. Sir]

Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and garden salad. :|:

[CurSedVoyce]

Chicken here too ...:/:

[cybergeek23851]

Waffle House, here. It just didn't sit right tonight.

:(

[Mr. Sir]

Does it ever? :?

[Chisel Tooth]

:lol: We call it the Offal House around here :|:

[cybergeek23851]

Does it ever? :?

I must not have had enough remaining blood alcohol to make it taste right. :lol:


No this one was just not the greatest that I have been to. The one in Canton Oh, and the few I visited in Georgia and South Carolina were ok.

[Paul B]

maui chicken with white rice and green peas. :D

[NickfromWI]

Karina made pesto tonight. My contribution: Chocolate chip cookies.

Dough has been made, split in half, half got pecans. It is chilling now. We're about to eat dinner. After dinner, dough should be chilled, then we bake!*

love
nick

*by that, I only mean the cookies...

Last week we grilled some Italian dressing marinated chicken breasts. Made extra and froze them. I knew tonight had to be a quick one, so defrosted a couple, sliced them diagonally, gave them a few seconds in the microwave...enough to start the juices flowing, and served them on bakery sandwich buns.

Side salad.

Very good.

Girl Scout Thin Mints for dessert! :)

[mryb]

Here you go Butch...

[MasterBlaster]

Hell yea, I'll give it a shot.

This is my main selection for my evening dinner. It's leaning me up like a mofo, way mo better for me than the buffets I was growing accustomed to. ;)

[Paul B]

pork chop,leftover rice, half a mini bun and a salad of tomato, onion and broccoli with a splash of balsamic. :)

[CurSedVoyce]

Tuna MB? Both those look good you two.. Katy is making some chicken breast. I am just starting to get hungry as I had a late lunch at about 3 pm.

[MasterBlaster]

Yes, tuna.

[CurSedVoyce]

Yummy.. I love tuna... :D

[Dave Shepard]

I like to put a dollop of tuna on a salad, especially with a lot of onion. I always feel better after eating a big pile of veggies.

[CurSedVoyce]

I make it with onions, garlic, red bell or pimento and dill. Dill really sets it off.

[hmm]

fire wings

[cybergeek23851]

Tonight, since I got into Londonderry late, was Applebee's.

[CurSedVoyce]

chili mac :D

[sotc]

Scrambled eggs, with bacon, onions and fried tortilla strips in corn tortillas

[Paul B]

Kraft dinner with ham chunks in it. Making a snack now as momma just got home. a plate of veggies (carrots, celery, cucumber and snap peas) with a little bowl of home made dip (1/2 fat mayo, low fat sour cream, a splash of dijon mustard and a pinch of a spice from Epicure (Lemon Dilly)) then a few low salt ripple chips for momma and a few wings with hot sauce for me. :D

[Dave Shepard]

Sausage, pancakes and real Vermont maple syrup, made by a real Vermonter.:lol:

Is it possible to eat too many pancakes? We'll find out, more at 11:00.

[CurSedVoyce]

HAHA... My sons favorite.. :D

[Paul B]

spaghetti and meat sauce with garlic bread. :)

[CurSedVoyce]

Reservations :D

Paul, you are so good! How sweet of you to have that ready for mama!

[Paul B]

lol! I arent that saintly V, I was hungry too! :)

[hmm]

grilled veggie wraps yummy

[Paul B]

chicken souvlaki, greek salad and rice with a few veggies mixed in, all from scratch of course. :D

[CurSedVoyce]

Beef stir fry with shitaki mushrooms and lots of veggies :D

[Paul B]

thawing a handful of wings at the moment, I have a hankering for a little snack. :)

[top_notch]

Instant mashed potatoes with lots of garlic, lots of cheese, and black beans all mixed together...only one dish to wash.

[Skwerl]

Chicken egg foo yung earlier. I skipped lunch and had an early dinner. But Erik's wife got me in the habit of having desert every night for a week so I just got back from the grocery store where I bought a half gallon of Moose Tracks flavor ice cream. :P
I'd rather be fat and happy than skinny and miserable. :lol:

Oh, and I'm using the forbidden 'drop start' technique. Carton in the right hand, spoon in the left hand. :D

[Paul B]

breakfast for dinner... two eggs sunny up, a serving of hash browns and two rashers of low salt bacon. :)

on deck for later, 10 chicken wings. Not sure but I might do them in honey garlic rather than hot sauce, I will let y'all know. :P

Might have to figure some veggies and dip as well, wife is working late and might be snacky when she gets home.

edit: lunch was at burger king, I had two orders (four little burgers total) of the BK Burger shots (http://www.burgerking.ca/en/View.aspx?uid=TopMenu_Home). They are tasty but a hungry fella could likely put down 6 to 8 of them in short order. :)

[CurSedVoyce]

Meatloaf :D

[Paul B]

reminds me of the scene in Wedding Crashers... " MA! MEATLOAF! F#$@!!" :D

[Dave Shepard]

:lol:That was a great scene.

[CurSedVoyce]

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

[Paul B]

" I dont do weddings anymore, I do funerals now and I am CLEANING UP! yeah!"

Wil Ferrel does a good job with that bit part character I tell ya.

[vharrison]

John has been eating the dolphin we caught over the weekend with a new twist:

Equal parts of mango chutney and ketchup mixed together and painted on the fish
Add a dash of blackening seasoning to the fish
Cook in a very hot cast iron skillet
Yum (even I liked the taste I took)

Now, the skillet is a bear to clean after cooking. I put water in it and put it on the stove to loosen up the goop!

[MasterBlaster]

Fish + ketchup?

Bleagh!

[sotc]

T-bones, beans, and rice

[squisher]

Gonna order some pizzas!!!! Pizza and beer, oh yah!:D

[MasterBlaster]

I haven't had pizza since I started my weight loss thang.

[Skwerl]

That sounds strange, Butch. :lol:

[squisher]

I know I shouldn't be either, but damn!!!!!

[MasterBlaster]

I fixed it.

[squisher]

You've made me reconsider now. I haven't dialed yet.:whine:
