I have a $25 gift card for a local sports bar I won last week playing poker so I might use that or I might go out to a seafood restaurant for lump crab meat. This Friday night is a BBQ at my parents house and Saturday night is a family dinner out...so if I play my cards right...I might make it through the entire week without cooking once...which means no dishes...haha...actually I mostly just use plastic throwaway plates and plastic cups and plastic silverware...because I don't have a dishwasher in my apartment...Holla

That's not very green of you. I recommend getting yourself a dishwasher. Mine's short with dark hair. Sometimes I have to kick it to get it going, but otherwise it runs OK.


holla



Ducks for cover!!

Just wait until you get a new model in about 10 years or so...the young ones need to be kicked on a regular basis, and then you sometimes have to wash the dishes again...:wink:

Is that how you can tell it's time for a new one? Guess I'm due to be replaced... Brian was washing the dishes yesterday.

Hmmm... guess that means maybe it's MY turn to get a dishwasher.... Much better than a pool boy any day! :beer:

You already have your replacement, you just have to wait until she can reach over the countertop and be (somewhat) trusted with breakable items...

Duh. Please excuse the brain fog. I misread what you typed. (Or maybe I read it the way I wanted .... LOL)

Yeah, I remember when I became my mom's replacement to do...everything. Cleaning sucks.

Crap I have been doing all that stuff for myself for a while, and I'm male. I'm not supposed to have to clean.

My parents retired in June, and have been making the most of their retirement. I haven't seen them in almost 4 weeks. They get home sometime this week, so I need to do some serious cleaning! As for cooking, I have been eating alot of macaroni and cheese while they were gone. Probly another box tonight......

Nope, my bad...I wasn't clear enough on who the replacement was. Besides, I don't want to bust on Brian too much...I know what he can do to skiers when they are down. ;-)

well, considering I get a villian deal on high quality protein from my job selling it, when I have a Friday night to really work with the product and make a nice meal for the gf and I, I step up.

That being said, I'm also a huge fan of quiche....yum

Quiche is so easy and a great way to get rid of left overs.

I already started on tomorrow's meal.

- London broil marinated in soy sauce, brown sugar, hoisin sauce, dash of vinegar, garlic, fresh ginger, green onion, and crushed red pepper.

- Chicken marinated in lemon, garlic, olive oil, and s&p.

And to round things out I have some sweet italian sausage that I will hit with some mesquite smoke at the end. Also making home made guac with avocados, garlic, sour cream, jalapeno, cilantro, cumin, lemon juice, s&p, and a dash of hot sauce. All this for 6 people...

NICE WORK

I love entertaining, especially the prepping and marinating the nigh before. No one there to bother you. Just you and the food.

Tripple protien. Very nice.

London broil, chicken, sausage, and I ened up doing some clams. That makes 4. ;-)

Sauteed garlic in some olive oil, crushed red pepper, s&p, lemon and lime zest and juice, parsley, and a Saranac Adirondack Lager. Toss in those clams for 7 - 10 minutes and enjoy.

On a recent trip to the Whites found a new favorite restaurant at the Glen......The Red Parka.....I do a pretty good job on eating healthy but their homemade meatloaf on a slice of feshly baked bread smothered in a muchroom/onion gravy was as good as it sounded on the menu. It's nice to breakout once in awhile for some good old comfort food.
