    What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

    One of my favourite veggies in winter. Jim, take some quartered smallish onions, some potatoes in chunks, some garlic, your hated brussel sprouts and put it all in a pot, with a cube of bouillon concentrate. Then pour a couple of good beers over them, and cook them in that till the sprouts are...

    Think I'll go out and barf in the hedge. GOD! The things you guys eat. I wish I could, but no way.

    Apart from the steak, that sounds good. May I suggest a nice southern french Grenache, like a Côte Du Rhône for that. Actually any well made and well matured Grenache from the southern part of France would do just as well. The key word here is: "Well matured". Most wines nowadays are made to be...

    I'd say a nice Shiraz would be your choice. That peppery taste should go well with the "meat????" Get your father in law to bring you a bottle of Australian Shiraz/cabernet, they do a most unusual blend of those two grapes that somehow IMO brings out the best of both. He can get that in New...

    Cream of cauliflower soup with croutons made from pumpernickel bread. Simple country fare:) The cauliflower was from Spain, so probably full of pesticides, but in winter, one makes do.

    I always have a couple of jars of Indian stuff in the fridge to spice up the occasional sandwich. That one looks yummy:) Jim, you pushed a button by mentioning that homemade blue cheese dressing. Apart from beer and pigs the Danes aren't good at making stuff, but we do make some world class...

    What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

    The mail order bride is off to settle some accounts in Schweiz, so I am cooking for myself and don't have to take care that I don't make the food too hot for her. So, I made a black bean chili with a salad. Richard, my South African partner, brought me a little jar of Scorpion pepper paste, last...

    Seems to me that if God had wanted Montana men to eat salmon, he'd have made a version with legs that could be grazed.

    Personally, I'd rather die than lose a leg. That, however, is just my opinion. Your buddy probably sees things differently.

    So in your opinion he would have been better off, if he had gone for regular check ups, they had found the cancer earlier and he could have spent his last time as a hostage to the doctors/medical system? Personally, I'd rather go out the way he did.

    They didn't use to, living on a diet that consisted mainly of marine animals and fish. The fat in coldwater marine animals is very low in saturated fatty acids, just like that of acorn fed pigs. Today, eskimos eat a lot of junk food, like there rest of us, and their cholesterol levls have...

    Gnocchi with Gorgonzola sauce. The Mail order bride cooked. Good thing she doesn't cook very often, or I'd blimp up seriously. We start logging hardwood monday, so I had an extra portion.

    She has a license, but all the jobs she has applied for, they told her that her Danish wasn't good enough. So we came up with this. Local nursing home gets a good worker for free and in return help her with learning the language. Actually just being around people all day who speak Danish helps a...

    What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

    Yep. Presently doing a 3 month stint at an old peoples institution ( I don't know what the current politically correct word is for places where we keep old people while waiting for them to die?)in order to be better at the language, unpaid of course. As much as it pisses me off having her work...

    What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

    Jim, you forget I've lived in Idaho, also I ain't no hipster. Older generation Danes would scream and die if you served them something hot. The newer, more cosmopolitan generation can take it. Southern part of Schweiz is Italian in language and cuisine, both. I love it when the mail order...

    My new favourite dish, this: http://ricette.leccenews24.it/aglio-olio-peperoncino-e-pangrattato-un-classico-leggermente-rivisitato-.htm It is so easy to make and one can make it as hot as one can stand. The mail order bride makes some for herself on one skillet and some for me on another. Today...

    Made an African peanut soup for dinner tonight. Sounds weird, but was actually very, very good. Found it here: http://cookieandkate.com/2013/west-african-peanut-soup/

    Same problem here. Chiracha to the rescue. We had black beab chili yesterday, mild for Maggie, covered in Chiracha for me. Not the same as a truly hot chili, but it helps. Today we'll have a Swiss/American conglomerate dinner. Leftover black bean chili and mashed potatoes, with grated sharp...

    I got off work early, so the wife and I went riding in the woods. Took a turn through one of my favourite mushroom spots, and ran across a nice hat full of Boletus edulis. Being on horse back, it was easy to chase them down. So mushroom risotto and a nice salad tonight:)
