Awesome place, damn.

I get the Alchemist with tamari almonds but really everything there is unreal and good. And it's about a two minute walk from my front door :)

[City of Mills]

[bicentennial_baby]

5. Hopefully ordering pizza

I want pizza. It's been a long fucking week. So I want pizza.

[AlCzervik]

8. Well it is Friday, pizza night here as well.

:patriot:

[Shakespeare]

10. That's usually your go to when you're PMSing.

Whatcha going to get on it? What kind of crust? We're both on a no-carb diet at the moment, so I'll live vicariously through you and your pizza.

:hi: :loveya:

[bicentennial_baby]

13. I'm not PMS-ing, even though I should be...

The stress made it come a *week* early. :o

That hasn't happened since I was a teenager.... :crazy:

I'm not sure...probably spinach, feta, garlic, steak...But, we may try this new place who has a pesto-base pizza. :9

I made an incredible pesto pizza last week. OMG.

:loveya:

[Shakespeare]

9. Roast chicken with broccoli & mushrooms.

A no-carb feast.

[Parche]

11. Roast Pork With MissMillie

:woohoo: :hi:

[MissMillie]

21. bring dessert please

and just to warn you, I hate raisins.

[1gobluedem]

12. Pizza here too

I just haven't ordered it yet.

[Minimus]

14. Gluten-free frozen pizza

aBsically cardboard with sauce and cheese.

I'm too tired to make my own gluten-free crust.

[bigwillq]

15. We went to China Buffet (nt)

[RetroLounge]

16. 10 piece McNugget

Dinner of champions!

RL

[latebloomer]

17. Not to be repetitive, but. . .

PIZZA! With spinach and mushrooms.

Friday is takeout night, and we're broke, so no Thai or Indian.

[yellowdogintexas]

18. bowl of home made chili nt

[GOPisEvil]

19. Amy's Cheese Pizza Snacks and some blueberries.

Oh, and a Hansen's Diet Tangerine Lime soda.

Spelling edit

[Kali]

20. probably some leftover veg-beef soup

but there are some fresh garden tomatoes, squash, jalepenos, and green chilis on the table, so some kind of saute isn't out of the question yet.

[Chan790]

22. Homemade Macaroni and Cheese.

All bow down before the culinary god.






I didn't make it. :hide:

[DS1]

23. Another culinary experiment

I'll cop to it if it works :scared:

[bicentennial_baby]

26. Oooh, now I'm curious...

:D

[DS1]

28. It was okay

Keep in mind, I really like white rice.


Took some marinaded garlic chicken, sliced, and 3 slices of bacon and cooked them in the marinade sauce at low temp with the pan covered. When rice was close to done, remove cover and crank up heat to sear the chicken and bacon until fully reduced. Add some salt and white pepper then a 'tiny' bit of yellow mustard. Put chicken and bacon over rice. Eat.

[Shakespeare]

29. Bacon makes everything better.

Just tell me the chicken wasn't skinless. That's the best part.

[DS1]

31. No can do.

:(

But yeah, the bacon definitely altered the chicken to be more bacony while in the first stage

[bicentennial_baby]

30. That sounds...really interesting

You, my friend, are a culinary oddball, and I like it. What was the marinade? :)

Now, will you come over and teach me how not to fuck up rice? :D

[DS1]

32. Dunno

It was bought at the farmer's market, called "Double Garlic Chicken"

In a completely Homer Simpson moment of logic, I said "Ohhh, double garlic, it must be four times as good"

:D

[bicentennial_baby]

35. Ha!

But really...help me with rice...I can't do it right. I suck. x(

[DS1]

36. water salt boil drain

:shrug:

[bicentennial_baby]

37. And yet it still all sticks to the pan!

Next time you're down here...we cook rice. Maybe on Chili Weekend™ :D

[DS1]

38. okay

weirdo :)

[bicentennial_baby]

40. Shaddap!

I suck at making rice...I could never be an Asian Woodcarver x(

[DS1]

41. You'd starve your family and have DSS called on you

after being offered a room!

[bicentennial_baby]

53. !!!

:rofl:

[LostinVA]

24. Quik Chek subs

It's our usual Friday night dinner.

[fishwax]

27. We're doing hot pot here

Our spread will be nowhere near this elaborate, but I'm still looking forward to it :9

[Gormy Cuss]

33. Moussaka.

Plenty of eggplants calling my name out there in the garden...sorry, it's not vegan or I'd offer you a slab.

[LeftyMom]

34. I have to eat up all the leftovers & fresh veggies before I leave.

I think tonight I'll be using up the potatoes, the open container of soymilk and the seitan, either as country fried seitan or as shepherd's pie. Probably the latter, I also have carrots, mushrooms and onions to use up, and I can throw it in the freezer if I wind up with too much.

[Inchworm]

39. tater chips and beer

:hi:

[Erin Elizabeth]

42. Popcorn skrimps and a really high quality

homemade margarita (mixer from scratch).

Super nutrish!

[Pierre.Suave]

45. I had a homemade pizza

WITH PINEAPPLE...:P

It also had

Onions, Red Peppers, Pepperoni, Sausage, and a lot of Mozzarella...

[flvegan]

51. Pineapple?

Jesus, dude, don't admit that around here. You'll be dead by morn'...

[Pierre.Suave]

54. I considered starting a thread about it

:P

[ThomCat]

46. The cafe that opened in my neighborhood

had vegan lasagna as a special today.

The woman who opened this cafe specializes in food for special diets. She always has vegan, gluten free, corn free, and wheat free items on the menu. If anyone has a special need for food that isn't on the menu she'll take requests.

How cool is that? :)

I haven't had lasagna in quite a long time. It was wonderful! Hellen (the owner) even brought out a package of the cheese to show me just to make sure I was comfortable that it was vegan cheese.

[derby378]

47. General Tso's chicken with fried rice

Okay, so it's not 100% authentic mainland Chinese. I love the stuff. Ate it while watching the Olympic opening ceremonies on TV. Yum.

[hippywife]

48. We had a cold summer supper.

I made a black bean salsa, fresh quac, and some tortilla pinwheels with seasoned cream cheese, fresh red pepper, shallots, green and black olives. It was very nice and light. :hi:
