sounds good, where's the recipe?

In the book, Happy In The Kitchen. And no, I am NOT going to type it
out. 😉

Sounds long. You have a scanner. Scan it and email, in that case.

I'm waaaaiting.

🙂

You are gonna have a very long wait. 😉

Hubby's having fajitas, I'm having shrimp-"style fajitas". Yes, I
know it's not technically a fajita unless you use the correct cut of
beef. TFM® calls my version a taco, but, heck, I'm not even supposed
to eat beef anyway, if it's a taco, so be it. I'm going to like it!

I doubly cross the fajita line by adding cheese, sour cream, salsa,
lime juice, lettuce and tomato. I forgot to pick up an avocado,
though, darn it.

Allan eats the plain jane peppers, onions, and steak.

What are you all planning for Sunday dinner?

Duck. I've put it off long enough. The coals are waiting to be lit.

Pulled pork butt, smoked, not from a crock-pot. This still has
4-5 hours to go:

Red Beans and Rice. Will finish cooking these at dinnertime.
Celery, jalapeno, onion, thyme, garlic, and some cured and smoked
sweetbreads - chopped (didn't have sausage or ham).

And jalapeno cole slaw made with mayo, black pepper, chopped
onion and the cream/whey from 4% cottage cheese. Tiny bit of
sugar - KFC style.

How did you expect people to test it for you if you're not sharing?

How do you prepare your garlic bread?
Garlic salt, add fresh garlic to butter, or roast the garlic and
spread it on as is with a little EVOO?

I buy a fresh French loaf at the bakery around the corner and
add fresh garlic to butter, simmer, no extra salt. Cut the bread,
brush with butter and chunks of garlic, crisp in foil!

I would trade you. I love fajitas, tacos, whatever!

Okay, I'll take your bread, you can have my "fajitas".

Tacos at your house. :-)

Or if I can't make it to Florida, I think I'll just pull something
easy out of the fridge, or make a roast or something. It's been a
hell of a week. Ooh, maybe I can get Guy to take me to dinner.

Serene

You're more then welcome. I have more meat/shrimp than I can eat. Better
yet, opt for the dinner. LOL. You can get what you want.

I have a bunch of lamb cubed and marinating to make shish kebabs. I am
going to make up some tzikis <sp?> and a Greek salad to go with it,
and will warm up some pita brushed with olive oil. Oops.... almost
forgot.... we have some fresh asparagus to go along with it too.

My wife is in the process of making choux pasty and is going to make
either cream puffs or chocolate eclairs.

That sounds good, too. Now I'm wondering just who has the better dish for
dinner? Where should I go? <g>

Dover sole, baby arties, grilled corn. Fresh pineapple and/or
strawberries for dessert along with a nice decaf espresso.

Trust me, if this turns out well (the faux gras, that is) it will be
served at the NM cook-in. 😉

I might make a paella too..LOL

You had better hurry if you are coming here. I is 5:10 and I was just about
to go to the kitchen and make the Tzatziki and skewer the lamb so that we
can sit down and enjoy a cocktail or two before I go out and warm up the
grill.

BTW.. the eclairs look terrific.

Does anyone else ever make eclairs or cream puffs. My mother used to make
them quite frequently. I think this is my wife's second try, and both times
she has commented on how easy they are.

Banana waffles with butter and syrup
Pineapple and grapes

Pho and pork & leek dumplings. I wanted to make spring rolls, but I do
not have the stick noodles or the rice paper rolls. I have rice
vermicelli, but it is too thick. I need to visit an Asian Market.

Lin and I had:

Steamed rice
Asian-style cabbage salad
Asian-style cucumber-apple salsa
Vietnamese-style pork chops

I was *very* happy with the way it all worked together. Much more than the
sum of the parts.

We went out to a local pub. I had soup and salad; guy had a
cheeseburger, and I ate half his fries. Betty and Carol shared a
couple of appetizers. Boring, but satisfying.

Sounds yummy. I think I'll make that tomorrow.

I made spaghetti sauce and a box of dry spaghetti. I had a couple of
pounds of Italian sausage I needed to use up. In one skillet I did a quick
sweat of diced onion, garlic and fresh button mushrooms, with some s&p in
some olive oil. When done I threw it in a big pot. Then I browned and
drained the sausage and added it to the pot. Into the pot went 3 cans of
tomato sauce, 1 can of diced tomatoes seasoned with oregano and garlic. I
threw in some dried oregano and a dab of garlic powder. I also added a
couple of tablespoons of tomato paste and a can of water. The sauce
simmered for 3 hours and was served on al dente spaghetti noodle, fresh
grated parmesan and a salad.
