What's for Dinner Tonight?

Fish is fish and tacos are tacos. Who in the hell came up with that idea anyway? You don't see Mexicans eating them do you? :hammer:

Man ! I never thought of that . Maybe I should do a study on this . Get a grant from the goverment to find out what our little illegal buddies like to eat ? Which brings up another subject : When a white person eats mexican food their farts really stink ..... So do Mexican people Farts stink all the time ???


Geez Mule , You have opened up a whole new train of thought for me ....:unsure:
 
The Mexicans who mason tended with me sure did. It was those damn pasty beans they ate for breakfast. They would stink before beer break and on the ride home it was real bad.
 

Roast chicken, roasted rosemary red potatoes and onions, steamed fresh broccoli and roasting pan gravy

veal scallopine, either spatzle or potato cakes & broccoli w/ carrots. i'm thinking of making a beurre noisette or a beurre blanc fer the veggies.
 
Nice Din-Din, Mama.

Being a good Catholic mackerel snapper on Ash Wednesday, I made us a pizza with red & yellow peppers, onions, sweet banana peppers and broccoli on a homemade whole wheat crust. It was almost healthy until I loaded it up with Mozzarella. :brows:

I thought I'd be a nice guy and make Pasta Primavera with grilled chicken breast for Valentines Day dinner for DW & DD. I had it all going and on time, when DD text messaged me to say she would be 1 hour late, then 5 minutes later DW texted that she had to stay late at work, and to not hold dinner for her... She was 2 hours late.

Pitiful as it was, I still took pics of the veggies before they were roasted and the meal on the table.

No pics tonight as we made and delivered dinner to a friend and her caretaker. The gal is convalescing in her third week following double knee replacement. She's still in pain, but making good progress. Today her physical therapist measured her range of motion and is up to 90 degrees on one knee and 82 degrees on the other.

I made a pork roast with pan gravy, mashed potatoes, candied carrots and a fresh loaf of Italian bread. DW made an apple cake for dessert. There was enough left over so they can have at least one more meal from the leftovers.
 
It started with a Caesar salad, then lobster bisque, followed by lobster bruschetta leading to the main, pictured, and ending with a 3 berry creme brulee'. Oh, forgot to mention different wines for each course ............ Oh my!

For those who think McD's food once in a while won't hurt you! I know it is loaded with sodium and makes my legs swell quick.

I love the taters made in bacon grease. I keep a jar of bacon grease in the fridge for cooking.
 
Breakfast for dinner. Wifey had scrambled eggs and I had a 2-cheese omelet. The bacon was twice smoked from the Slovenian butcher, and the toast was my 70% hydration Italian bread recipe that I made Sunday.
