Suppertime! Suppertime! Hey Fellas, What'd You Have For Supper Tonight?

[tvstrip]

Those things seem like Lay's Potato Chips where they are so good you can't eat just one. How many did you have?

I see Canadians like them, kinda-sorta...

He messed it up. The hashbrown has an indented "pool" for the gravy, which you can see in my picture. But he's right about the mayo - in fact the "pool" was filled to the brim with it, so I had to scoop it out in order to fill it in with the gravy.

I just had one. As he mentioned, they are expensive. Just by themselves they are already more expensive than any other fast food combo. 2 McValue meals would be cheaper and more filling. But probably worth trying once.

I love Thanksgiving dinner. I don't eat the cranberry sauce, but I love the rest. It's one of those meals that seems comfortable on a cold winters evening. It's like getting brinner, every once and a while, you get a craving.

Nothing says Freedom like being able to get mayonnaise and gravy as opposed to mayonnaise or gravy.

We postponed eating leftovers until tomorrow and I got a Barbacoa Bowl from Chipotle at the food court. Black Friday was super mellow even in the place formerly known as Fox Hills Mall.

 

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

Got some smart ladies in this house. My wife bought a huge pork tenderloin at Costco on a Black Friday sale for around $8. She gave the pork to her mom and ma made Pork Adobo, Pork Bistek, and tonight she pounded and breaded a bunch of Pork Chops that we ate.

I did Hamburger Helper - Lasagna, and washed it down with a Sam Adams Octoberfest.

 

[Mr. Daystar]

I can't believe I'm going to type this out, but my niece came over to visit my wife and I last night, and brought a pot of VEGAN CHILI. So my niece and my wife, and I had vegan chili, with faux meat. It was actually very good. I suppose the medium heat, and the chili powder help the "meat", taste like meat, but it was good. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go gnaw on some raw meat, to appease me beliefs.

 

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

I like Vegan Chili and it’s even better if you throw a steak in the pot in addition.

I'm having "the other half" of my Hawaiian pizza, from Thursday night. Thing is: apparently the restaurant in a neighboring city changed ownership. The pizza is amongst the three WORST I've ever had, primarily because it was under-cooked to begin with. Also, the dough is awful / hence the crusts. My pizza place in town also changed ownership, and their dough also now sucks. So, I'm gonna be hitting some new pizza joints over the next couple of months. Oh: I did finally find a liquor store that had some Harpoon Winter Warmer - so I'm washing it down with that; first one of the season!

Sorry about the pizza. I hate when my food places change around.

 

[Mr. Daystar]

Yeah, good pies are getting harder to find. We have to go about 25 minutes to pick up a decent pizza, because all we have a chain shops, and they all just suck. The biggest issue being they don't know how to bake them, or the sauce is vile. The situation in my area is simple. The main demographic of residents, want late night, cheap drunk food, and aren't willing to pay, for the quality you get from a mom and pop pizzeria.

 

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

We have a local neighborhood Italian restaurant that makes outstanding Margherita Pizzas. Great ingredients on a fairly simple pizza.

I bought $140 of Zankou Chicken last night and I'm still working on it. A lotta-lotta kebabs, a bathtub of hummus, a barn full of salad, and a mass grave of rice.

Ya know, I often wonder how much food you get there, as opposed to here in Cleveland. I know my house would be worth a lot more, but where you live, obviously dictates your income also. A friends son works in the financial field in Manhattan NY, and makes huge money, but his apartment is like $6500 a month! So we know cost of living, and housing are relevant, I have to think food falls in there too. But even that is going up everywhere. My wife will get a med mushroom pie, and I get sausage, and it's like $35 bucks! We get diner, and lunch the next day, but it's a lot for pizza.

 

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

Zankou's prices have steadily been increasing. I go there when we have people over to make things easy.

When we travel to Texas we notice how inexpensive the food is compared to here. One of the best meals I ever had was breakfast in El Paso right by the border eating some amazing Chorizo & Eggs with rice, beans, and tortillas. The coffee was great with that spicy Tex-Mex Breakfast.

 

[Mr. Daystar]

That's another thing that's getting hard to find. A good cup of coffee, for less then a $5 bill. Unless you make it at home, on the stove with an old Corning ware percolator.

 

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

I buy Peet’s French Roast Coffee and start every day with a 24 Oz cup that I make. More economical and a great cup of coffee too.

Unless it's laced with cocaine, I refuse to buy "regular" coffee for more than $2.00. I'll spring up to $3.50 for a large seasonal latte.
So it boggles my mind what starbucks charges for their "specialty" coffees.

I went to put on a pair of jeans .. and they were TIGHT. Jumped on the scale, and a new "high" / record.. So .. I'll be setting a New Year resolution to drop a pound a week for the foreseeable future. At a minimum, in the short term: 1) no pizzas; 2) no bagels; 3) no desserts. So, last night I had a chicken and fettuccini Lean Cuisine, and a fuji apple with peanut butter (I have an apple a day, for .. "regularity").

I'm working on dropping lbs too. When I stopped working, but still consumed beer and whisky at what some would call, an alarming rate, the pounds added up a lot quicker then they're coming off. My biggest problem is eating diner to late.
