:eek: those are huge, Bob.
Looks really good.

They were huge, however, there was a problem with them. So far, only 10 have worked. If the other 2 kick in tonight then all is well. If not, I'll go back tomorrow and try another dozen to see if they work any better.

:wow::clap:

Never did get around to my stir-fry because of a later than normal brunch thing.
Was too full still, so had some cheese and crackers, and grapes.
 
yesterday's dinner: snack foods, there were loads of them, then muchrooms my bro fried for me/marinara, & we split a crab chowder. cake for dessert.

today's lunch/prob. dinner: made pierogies, broccoli, & salad. i need a nap.

I've already decided that I am going to have fried chicken and all the sinful fixin's at the chicken place.
My tummy is behaving, I need to splurge LOL
 
It's cold, wet and snowy outside .
So tonite I'm doing my potatoe soup recipe.

Last of the reds from the garden. Thought I was out but yesterday, I found a small bag in the cold pantry.
 
Well, I didn't exactly splurge.. could have had chicken gravy on the taters, instead I plopped some butter on them (that's healthier, right?)... no biscuit.. just the two pieces with those mash and corn.
Thank you Chik-n-HouseFormerlyKnownAsKentuckyFriedChicken! :yum:

Beautiful little girlie luvs!

Looks yummy Lollie!! I would love some buttery taters right now.

I felt lousy all day. But I made it through 6 hours at work.

DD made her first Broccoli Aglio Olio over multigrain linguine. It was yummy if a bit under garlicy. She did better than my first time. She said she missed me being around for her to ask questions. Well I guess it will be trial by fire for awhile. If we survive she will learn some tasty lessons (hopefully).

Hope you feel better, Peepers.
Trial and error with the kids cooking, but she's got Mommy's cooking genes..
Wouldn't worry about dinner waiting for you when you get home. :flowers:
 
thanx peepz. think i'll be visiting them oft. they keep requesting i stay over. i have a gazillion pix of her for fb in her cute 'lil dress before she got her smash cake.glad u got thru work!
your girl'll get it even better if she's already in there getting dinner prepared on her own. that's sweet of her & she'll likely be a better cook for it.

lollie, that looks good. ummmm, chix. & taters. laughed @ your restaurant title. cute. hehe.
 
not cooking the meal i'd intended to (steak)- my brother just called me to see if i'd watch my baby niece tomorrow & the day after:w00t2:& the boys after school, so i'm having the dinners they decide on til they bring me home on friday. they offered to get me food; i said not to worry 'bout it.
 
Loaded with head and chest relief drugs, I took the easy way out and made a simple meal for DW. Now off to my chair to curl up with some hot tea and take a nap before going to bed early.

Beef and noodles, broccoli and a piece of angel food cake with those cherries in the gel stuff plopped on.
Ummm.. ewww.. but I ate it.. saved me a trip to Taco Hell..
 
lobster ravioli/alfredo sauce, & me & my brother split a steak. or @ least its exterior- the middle was mooing. really thick steak. it was a good dinner, just laughing over some of the antics me & him & my ex & mutual friends used to pull.:whistling:sil only dined on the ravioli.

Went to this fairly new steak house/sports pub downtown today with a couple of friends.
We all ordered the NY Strips with breaded mushrooms and salads.
Should have read the reviews before going, and I haven't heard such good things about this place on the street besides.
I wanted my $17.99 steak dinner done medium to medium rare.
What did I get?
A rare steak that was mooing.
It took them almost an hour to prepare 3 steaks and the sides.
No tip! Won't be going back there!
Thank God for Pat's Donuts and Kreme.. we went there after and had a chocolate buttercream-filled paczki for dessert! :yum::hammer:
 
Baked battered fish fillets and noodles were on the menu tonight. Nothing fancy but it still probably blew my diet all to hell after eating out for lunch next to the USDA office I went to.:yum:
 
my bro got me earlier 2 watch my niece/nephews so there went the steak i would've luved. he got me wendy's. (better than the cornstarch this lady on tv is noshing on!-gotta luv disc. fit & health ch.) got a broccoli/cheese baked potato, chix nugs, & chili for some other point tonite/tomorrow.
he cooked me a strip steak for lunch tomorrow.

lollie, they shoulda comped yinz for all that! :hammer:on them.

You did good watching the kiddos, Aubs.
Wendy's. Haven't been there for a long time!
Enjoy your steak tomorrow, hun.

Leona, Linda and I didn't worry about being comped for bad food that took forever to prepare.
No, we ate it (most of it).. then walked out.
Won't be going back there, don't know how they stay in business unless it's the bar and appy menu that bring in the bucks for locals around here.
 
thanx, lollie. i luv having raynin for the entire day/evening & hanging w/ the boys after school. got 'em 'til friday. i shall dive into the steak while the baby naps.:flowers:
haven't gotten wendy's or any fast food since me & jake split, 'cept 4 sbarro's on black friday & then the day after Christmas.

i make it clear that i shall not be entering an establishment again & that i'll let it be known to anyone i know if the food &/or service is less than it should be. i mention to those that try 2 make it into an argument that i'm a professionally-trained chef-to-be that could put thier food to shame & has worked various restaurants, request a manager, & get comped. as i'm a 'lil bitch like that.:whistling:not usually, 'cept i take my food seriously as it gets.

i gotta read the reviews 'ya posted. good fer yinz, bolting after the meal & not tipping. hope u & the ladies got some good chit-chat in!

mule, 'da fish sounds so good.
 
oh. well bitch-fests can rock. especially when alcohol is involved. i think you're spot-on- it's gotta be the booze/appys drawing people there. (lol, now there's a guy on tv dining on mooing meat. i like carpaccio & sashimi from ruth's chris & japanese restaurants & very rare/med-ium rare meat, 'cept :wow:, this dudes noshing on manager's special raw meat/chix.)
 
Wasn't any alcohol involved as we all work tomorrow.
The place is basically another pub with the sports loving crowd coming in to nosh and gossip about town stuff.

What the hell are you watching?
Don't tell me it's our darling Bourdain!
Sounds more like Andrew Zimmern.. he'll eat anything! LOL

i used to drink @ work, he-he. & during school.:whistling:
oh, i see.

well, now the golden girls, i just it changed from discovery fit & health. now a pop addict is on. 30 cans a day, geez i drink 1 1/2 cases & thought that was too much! it's called 'freaky eaters'. they're havin a marathon on 'til 2.
 
i used to drink @ work, he-he. & during school.:whistling:
We've often say our jobs are enough to drive us to drink, but we in uniform looking out for others don't have that option, so we do it on weekends when we do, then complain about it later saying I am not going to do that again.
:puke1::toilet: :dizzy:
 
yeah, sadly i could see a former physician of mine was on something, just by looking @ his eyes. crazy chit when ur in charge of another's health & well-being. i've heard substance use is rampant in some med pros. some.

in the culinary business, drinking's so common- so is other substance use. ohhhhh, i shant ferget the day a can in my schoolbag burst in my dean's office in front of her. they so knew. they could see us from the 1 building going to the bar daily for liquid lunch/sammiches. i drink so infrequenly now. u know the deal.

You in the culinary field are exposed to fine wines and those of the cooking variety.
I can see where the access would lead to excess.
Take Julia Child.. God rest her soul.. often thought she was tipping the goblet a time er three..:yum:

Dinner tonight- I'll probably run out for a fish sandwich or something meatless from the Chinese place.. considering it's Ash Wednesday.
Or I might see what they're serving at work.
 
aughhhh! forgot no meat today! i'll have something meatless for lunch/dinner. hafta pick thru thier pantry/fridge plus i brought my own food. maybe my Mom'll bring me food from a fish fry as i strongly doubt there's any fish in the fridge here.

lol, my nurse was by a few tuesdays ago & we usually watch Julia Child. we noticed she was tipsy & nearly lost a pan of potatoes or something from the stove & that. she was being rather clumsy/tipsy that day & quite a few others, lol! i luv her. she is my idol.
 
got a battered fish sammich & slaw. bro, linguine alfredo scallops/shrimp, the others, mcdonalds. i fed the baby a gerber toddler meal & gave her a bottle. best was when her Momma gave her a dallop of redi-whip. she was dancing to gaga like a baby mad-girl. cutie. then she zonked. hehe.
