WHAT DID YOU HAVE FOR DINNER TODAY?

[Sepiatone]

Well, as I'm here at 12:06 pm and haven't yet had lunch, It's hard to say what I'm having for dinner today.

But last night I had a baked boneless pork loin seasoned with nu-salt, pepper and nutmeg with a baked potato garnered with nu-salt, pepper and sour cream and broccoli.

I’m told not to eat the chicken skin but it falls on deaf ears.
The potato skin is supposed to be good for your health.
If you’re going to make fries, don’t peel them taters.

I made a pork tenderloin on Saturday. Used Ina Garten's recipe, which marinates the pork in olive oil, lemon juice, and various herbs. Sunday, I cubed leftover pork to make pork couscous, with lots of veggies as well and an OXO beef cube. Used Trader Joe's whole wheat couscous.

I'm with ya on the chicken skin. Avoiding it is good for you, which is why I buy skinless/boneless chicken breasts. But if I'm dining as a guest at someone else's home and served either fried or baked chicken that still has the skin, well, I refuse to be a rude guest, so....

I haven't made home made fries for years, but never peeled the 'taters either. Not because the skins are supposed to be good for you, but because I like 'em that way.

I’m fixin’ to have an early breakfast. Why not. Got some thick sliced bacon should be defrosted soon. Plenty eggs. I’m leaning towards grits this morning rather than potatoes. But I might rethink that. Going for a Thomas’ English muffin with Irish butter instead of toast. Grandma always fried her eggs in bacon grease so I don’t see why I can’t do the same, but you have to be careful, delicate, you don’t want greasy eggs, the last thing in the world you want is greasy eggs. Yes, for this breakfast yellow grits will work just fine. A big ol’ pot of them with butter and just a drop or two of bacon fat maybe, test them out first. I started thinking three slices of bacon, the thick cut, but changed my mind to four. It’s hickory smoked and fills the kitchen with bacon aroma. Nothing better. Now, normally I would do my eggs over easy and put them on top of the grits, but now I’ve decided on fried potatoes with onions and maybe peppers, one thing for sure, gonna be lots of ‘em. The bacon fat might could be used with the potatoes too, play that by ear. I’ll stick with the English muffin because I like English muffins. Yeah, give me a good start to the day.

You might want to keep a defibrillator nearby to get a good start of your heart after all that bacon And bacon fat.

Well, we had the larder is empty chili and tamales last night.
So today is grocery shopping day.
I'm a bit concerned about Thompson.
His avatar is missing.

He will have a hard time passing the hat.

Do you mean passing the hat; or passing the hat?

I would be happy to make a contribution, if he answered the age-old question: "Is Thompson Nipkow?"

LostHorizons, did you drink/spoon your milkshakes at the same place or did you go to three different places? Or did you make them at home? If you made them at home did you use a blender and add a raw egg? What was the thickness quotient? How big/tall were they?

They were all the same place and I use a spoon not a straw. I have acid reflux disorder and that relates somehow to why I have a hatred of straws. I forget the story details exactly but when I was a child I regurgitated all over myself and I have hated straws since.

[jimimac71]

Passing the hat? I guess both. Was thinking potty time.
I doan think Thompson is Nipkow.
It seems like both Lawrence and EP are missing.
For Din Din last night we had one of those frozen skillet dinners in a bag.
Followed by some ice cream.
I have GERD and some ice cream gets to me, even though I take a popular OTC pill for it.

I've noticed it missing lately. I was joking about the defibrillator because I thought he was either OK to eat like that or also joking.

And where do you get your tamales? Hoping they're the real thing. And it reminds me....

My wife's sister hasn't made tamales in quite a while. Gotta get on her case about that. Her's are really good. And I've GOT to get her other sister's recipe for picadillo.

Sorry Sepiatone, but the tamales and chili come in a can.
