LadyCrimson Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Winter morning and I really wanted instant ramen noodles. They're so bad for you me, nothing but fat, salt and a zillion empty carbs, but oh so tasty now and then. So I added squash and cabbage, that makes it all right, right? (I know the pic is terrible/likely unappetizing - but I added lens flare to make up for it! ) 1 “Things are as they are.

PK htiw klaw eriF Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 I smoked a brisket and it turned out good.

Guard Dog Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Dinner last night was most awesome. Sunny & I drove down to the Lauderdale river landing and did some fishing from the bank. After just 10 minutes I hooked a nice sized largemouth Bass. All across the USA & world there are pro shops selling billions of dollars worth of fancy lures and fishing tackle. They can keep all that trash. Nightcrawlers, crickets, minnows, & shiners. That is all you will ever need! The fish was a big enough for two filets. I dipped it in cornmeal batter and pan fried and served up with butterbeans & pear sauce (applesauce made with pears). Freshwater fish is seriously underrated for dinner! 3 2 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromnir Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Wait time at In-N-Out grand opening in Aurora hits staggering 14 hours am recommending shady orders a "double-double, animal style." regardless, even if you do not want the full animal style treatment, "mustard grilled" or "mustard fried" is, in our mind, a necessary addition. when ordering an in-n-out burger, always ask for meat to be mustard grilled/fried... an unnecessary additional demand as is standard when asking for animal style. congratulations to colorado. HA! Good Fun! ps, the in-n-out fries kinda such. we ordinarily ask for our fries to be "well done" but honestly this don't make 'em much better. am understanding you can order 'em "light well," but have never ordered this way. typical we skip fries altogether. animal style fries is kinda tasty, but is honest too much for us if am already ordering a double-double. 1 "If there be time to expose through discussion the falsehood and fallacies, to avert the evil by the processes of education, the remedy to be applied is more speech, not enforced silence."Justice Louis Brandeis, Concurring, Whitney v.

Bernies Burger Bus was probably the best burger joint around my area, but unfortunately they've gone out of business and the best now is Grub or Hubcap grill.

This is a reality many of us grapple with and need to be cognizant of, its also one of the many advantages of living in the 21st century but also can be a problem. And that is a world where we are generally surrounded by numerous places to get takeaways and sometimes they cheaper, and mostly more convenient, than buying food from supermarkets and cooking. And its a real consideration around our diet which is a huge factor in our health The way I deal with this temptation is I try very hard to stick to my " gastronomic rules " which basically translates to where I dont get takeaways during the week but on the weekends I allow myself that luxury. I have to have these rules because I lack restraint to " not get takeaways " during the week if I was allowed Edited November 23, 2020 by BruceVC "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.
