Lou and I are trying to get into the city to do a walking tour called Gangs of New York. Hoping the weather holds off..

Tonight is the first official burgers off the grill of the season. Dinner is big swiss burgers topped with sauteed mushrooms and served with baked potatoes.

I think a caesar salad is in order, too.

Chocolate cake with strawberries and whipped cream for dessert.

A trip to the liquor store is in order so cocktail has not been determined. Wine is undetermined at this point, as well.

What are you having?

And carmelized onions? mmm
Those are the kind of burgers I don't put anything else on.

I'm thinking of cooking up one of those pork steaks tonight and closely matching Keltin's recipe. And some smashed cauliflower with garlic and chicken stock.

Im gonna try the chicken (defrosted) in the slow cooker

Hopeing to get a shredable chicken that I can cover with mole and serve in warm tortillas

Using Jarred Mole sauce we'll see how it turns out.

Happy Birthday to your son bt!!

Not really sure yet. If Dh goes to play cards I may make eggs benedict or chowhounds' "eggs goldenrod". Dh won't eat either one. If Dh stays home.....I'll come up with something. lol

Happy Birthday to your boy, BT! My kids all loved Friendly's when we lived in MA. Have a wonderful celebration. (Pics would be nice. hint hint)

I'm at the coast and I may just go out for seafood.

No idea at all, I have some steaks I want to use up and the weather was supposed to be high 50s and sunny, its windy and feels like 35 :( I didn't have a plan B.

"Wintery mix" in the forecast for South Sound so the grill cover will stay on. Thinking meatloaf with baked beets, smashed potatoes and one of the last jars of green beans from the garden. Guess you'd call it comfort food night.

Tonight we are having my sister in law over for her birthday dinner. So she loves my crab cakes so it will be that with a shrimp cocktail, steamed asparagus, and some roasted potatoes.

Pizza!
Paul's crust
My sauce
?? for toppings

How bout half what you want on one side, and half what he wants on the other side. Then you don't let each other serve themselves... instead you serve him his slices and he serves you yours!
