Plate ‘em up

[Jbotto]

My Grandma made the best fried chicken too and is equally missed. This was good but it wasn't Granny's. Doesn't help that any recipe she had she didn't write down. It was always a "little bit of ____ and a splash of ____." All by memory.

Ingredients and amounts don’t matter with grandma’s cooking. Made with too much love for ingredients to matter.

That's an awesome post!

Two big venison meatballs hiding under the sauce.

Pheasant Tikka Masala. Excellent way to prepare wild bird. Going to try with duck next, but the fact that my wife had a giant plate and went back for seconds said it all.

Back home now recovering from ankle surgery. My daughter is here helping me. She made shakshuka for brunch today. Yum!

Would have looked better with some fresh chopped parsley or basil on top, but we neglected to get that at the grocery.

I'm all about taste. Looks are secondary. mtmuley

I love my smoker but it's 20 degrees with 22mph sustained wind 40+ gust blowing snow. So the oven was used for dinner tonight. Wife found a smaller standing rib roast on sale about half the price per pound I paid before Christmas. Cooked it a little closer to medium as the wife thought the last one was a bit to rare.

@Redmt gets mad at some of my pics so he probably shouldn't look. I used some of my dad's logic tonight. He said when you're at a potluck you should eat dessert first. That way you know you can have what you want before it's gone! So, tonight's dinner is dessert. Marie Callender apple pie still warm from the oven topped with Tillamook apple crisp ice cream. Oh, hell yeah!

Here I am trying to drop a few (many) pounds and you torment me! Somehow every time I get close to 225, something happens and I'm back at 230+.

But that was dinner, not a treat after! I saved on calories! Besides, you have to have a cheat meal once in a while or a diet gets old quick. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! Now, I'm off to my elliptical to try and work some of it off.

So if I eat desert for dinner then dinner for desert I'll drop a little? There's a hole in your theory somewhere but I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the advice!

No No No! Dessert for dinner and SKIP the dinner! Nothing but dessert. For dinner. Instead of dinner. Then no dessert. Got it?

 

[Redmt]

Got it?

Unfortunately, yes I get it.

It doesn't look like desert to me. You must have given up on that diet.
