What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

[CurSedVoyce]

Sometimes a mans gotta do what mans gotta do.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Browned some oxtail for a noon soup.

Simmering it now.


Cleaning out a freezer is fun and challenging.

Got to make room for a couple barley fat sheep.

Tacos last night. I have to run over to the next town so I don't know what we are eating until Katy tells me what she might be in the mood for.

 

[Tree09]

That's how it goes here too usually, I'm informed of what i can make the family

 

[CurSedVoyce]

I am usually the control for what dinner will be as I am the retired chef. She likes how fast dinner is put out and likes my cooking. Every once in a while she'll make one of her dishes I or the kids are craving. But... I also do most of the shopping. Incorporate left overs etc. Like a running inventory in my head. And of course make sure she has some left overs of what she likes for lunch.
I actually have a hard time eating out as I can often make food better than what I can buy out. SO I have my favorite haunts and dishes. When we go to some places she prefers, I just find something they might not screw up.

I don't do much pork normally but did some some tonight.

 

[BeerGeek]

Austin, did you breadcrumb/pan fry that pork?

 

[stikine]

Just a dredge of flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. And then pan fried.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Pot roast again as the meat was on sale

Went out for lunch to Carrabbas after Mass today. Eighteen of us, celebrating my daughter's fiancée becoming a full-fledged Catholic. I had the Veal Marsala with Sauteed Spinach. It was very good for a "fast-food Italian" place. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meals. I thought it was overpriced but I suppose everything is these days.


He's the tall guy in the back, with my daughter the blond.

 

[stikine]

Looks like a lot of booze on the bill.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Someone get married ?

 

[flushcut]

I don’t think that is bad for 18 people.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

No. Not terrible.

 

[Mellow]

Looks like a lot of booze on the bill.

Ha! We have some Irish in our blood. I only had 3 beers.

Someone get married ?

Not until August. She'll be number 4 of my 6 daughters.

I don’t think that is bad for 18 people.

Meh, kinda steep for what we got but I guess the booze jacked it up a bit. I just noticed the $50 for two tequilas.

 

[stikine]

Being Irish, I know all about what you say!

 

[BeerGeek]

I'm 1/8 Irish, so I can relate; my mutt kids have a smidgen at 1/16 (and all w/an Irish last name)...

and seeing how both of you are ex-jerseyans...

 

[Jonny]

Patron Silver is the good stuff though.
Can’t touch any other tequila unless it’s mixed.

 

[treebilly]

Tequila of any kind has always been on my do not drink list. Bad things happen.

 

[lxskllr]

I like good aged tequila. I don't get it often, but I enjoy it when I have some, Cuervo sucks.

 

[treebilly]

It appears that I’m having spaghetti tonight. Quick easy dishes like this happen a lot since ball season has started for two of the kids. I better shovel some down and get something else done outside before they get home

 

[flushcut]

Turkey tacos.

 

[Jonny]

Some roasted chicken, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and mushrooms.
Pretty dang good.

 

[BeerGeek]

On the tequila front, I've always gone w/the Anejos; best tasting and no bad side effects (unless you go over your limit).

Lilly made her mom some Strawberry crepes for mothers Day breakfast. Made some more tonight for dessert.
