What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

[stig]

On a diet Dave?

A post like that kinda pisses me off, Jim.

Why is it that every time an American doesn't eat half a cow and a ton of potatoes fried in enough oil to keep our houses warm for the winter is supposed to be on a diet?

Not all of us are on a "trying to join the other 65% obese Americans" eating disorder.

Or in my case" Trying to join the other 60% fat Danes" disorder.

We haven't quite caught up with you yet.

Don't worry, we'll get there eventually, as will the rest of the world's population.

Hahahaha!

Have a Snickers Stig.


I am Morbidly obese you know....I can ask folks if they are "on a diet" or watching what they eat and it not be an insult or a joke.


Just generally interested.

 

[stig]

If a bear going into hibernation is " Morbidly obese" so are you.

Nope, Dude, you are just fat.

Need more veggies in your diet and less salt in your conversation.

 

[FireFighterZero]

I live in a bit of a fruit and vegetable desert.

I hope to change that next year with a hoop house. The US dept of Ag has agreed to spend some of their tax payers hard earned dollars building me a hoop house.

Socialism!

Hey, I cooked some red cabbage the other day.


I was a medium head of red cabbage, sliced up and sauteed with a little butter.

Later I added some balsamic vinegar and sugar and some caraway seeds. A little salt and pepper.

No meat in that at all.


EDIT!!!!!


Going to try some Haluski here in a couple days.

 

[stig]

Sounds yummy.

Is a "hoop house" something like my poly tunnel?

 

[MasterBlaster]

Fat and morbidly obese are the same thing.

 

[Dave Shepard]

Everyone is on some sort of diet. Some are healthy, some are not.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Yes, I believe it is.

It is a central part to my plan of becoming a hermit.

My own Juche so to speak.

 

[stig]

Fat and morbidly obese are the same thing.

No!
Maybe after all, I do actually speak English better than you.
Excuse me while I go of somewhere and rejoice

 

[FireFighterZero]

I guess that is correct Dave.


I am the heaviest I have ever been.

Depression and alcoholism is a bad combo for trying to maintain a healthy weight!

Quitting tobacco put 25 pounds on me. I hope it was the right thing to do.

 

[stig]

Tobacco is the worst thing you can do to our self.
Tha 3 weeks I spend in the intensive lung disease unit , back when I almost died, convinced me of that.
Now you just need to drop the weight.
Man, that made it sound easy, didnt it.

Best I can do.
Saying: "Better be at your ideal weight when I come visit, or I'll slap you around" probably wouldn't work.

Sometimes life just sucks.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Wife is patching my pants.

Daniel and Lynley are at the chickens.

Richard boy is shooting darts at me from behind cover.

I am cooking ribs and having a whiskey.



Sorry for complaining earlier!

 

[MasterBlaster]

What/who is that trailer for, Jim?

 

[FireFighterZero]

Its our recreation trailer.

We go camping in it.

It also serves as a guest house when company comes.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Very cool!

 

[FireFighterZero]

Trixie makes sure I dont have to mess with the grease pan.

 

[FireFighterZero]

It'll be ready for you Butch....any time.

Its kind of old....a 97 model....but we take good care of it.

 

[MasterBlaster]

No!
Maybe after all, I do actually speak English better than you.

To be more accurate, morbidly obese is the next stage of being "fat."

 

[FireFighterZero]

Yep. Thats me.

Good ole Modbidly obese Jim.

At least I dont chew tobacco.

Gawd.

I turned them ribs over and just about lost it.

Sometimes I really hate grilling pork.

Poor old Mrs. Belden.

 

[squisher]

Seeing how I'm a bachelor tonight I kept it simple. Hit the pub for a burger and a couple of beers. Delicious.

 

[FireFighterZero]

We shoulda timed that better.

I would have come up and helped you clear the place out.

 

[squisher]

It was my hometown, only has one bar. I frigging knew half the people in there. Lol.

 

[Bermy]

Going wheat free and low-carb...the pounds come off by themselves.
That Keto thing you are doing looks delicious Brett!

I seem to have recaptured the fun of cooking again, tonight was homemade celery soup, fresh garlic, onion, a ton of celery saute, then add veg stock, a pinch of nutmeg and salt, simmer, then smoosh it all with a stick blender...added some cheese bits and it was yummy.

 

[Steve Mack]

I don't really eat anything with wheat in it, just some wholemeal bread sometimes and a burger roll on Sundays.

I've been making celery & carrot soup with onion and garlic with a few spices, it's pretty good this time of year. Use a stick blender as well with a bit of cream or yogurt

Just a roo burger again tonight. Got a new cast iron frying pan to try out.

 

[flushcut]

Pork chops, acorn squash, corn on the cob, and mashed taters.
