We filed our taxes and hub wanted to go out for dinner. SOOOOOOO ......
We went to The Longhorn for lunch. (I am having a salad w/ HB egg for my dinner cause I had big lunch) The 4 of us shared the Firecracker Buffalo Chicken Wraps appy - 2 half wraps each was a perfect size. Hub and I subbed out the Blue Ridge salad for the regular salad that came with the dinner - it was romaine hearts, blue cheese dressing, blue cheese crumbles and bacon bits - wonderful. I ordered a strip steak medium. The first steak came out gray inside. Well back it went. The second one came out and if I gave it a transfusion it would have galloped off. Third time was a charm - perfectly cooked. The manager comped my dinner. I only ate 1/3 of the steak because by the time they got it right the family was done eating!! I hate that!! I finished the steak when I got home (my DD had the tater) and it was good even at room temp. Aside from the steak cooking problem the food was good.
 
made 2 kinds wings/ fries/ a batch of blue cheese dressing. veggies, x-tra bleu for snacking, also malt vinegar & kep-utch, garlic butter 4 dipping. need x-tra frank's for the wings. bye, games on

Looks good Aubs!
That isn't a blah salad by any means..
I had Vigo red beans and rice (quick and easy) with tinned sweet taters on the side.
Something about that combo of slightly spicy and sweet is very nice. :)
 
I put on some split pea and smoked ham soup on before I went to work. I spent 6 hours thinking about how wonderful it smelled as I left the house. When I got home I wasn't disappointed. It was soooooooooooooo good I had 2 bowls!!

Lollie and luvs your meals sound and look wonderful

Luvs is the red object on the top of your salad a sun dried tomato? I would love some of your salad, pasta and bread.

Thank you Lollie.

Well I got hung up on, cursed at, threatened, screamed at and complimented. Par for the course. LOL PLUS when I got home someone was parked in front of my house so I had to park down the block. I duct taped a NO PARKING note on their windshield, went inside and enjoyed my soup. Not to bad a night just slightly annoying. I hope I can fall asleep. Pain has me tonight. Achy all over and my bad foot looks like a tree trunk. Thank you for asking.

And how was your day at work? Hugs, thoughts and prayers to you and your sis.

Kinda sounds like a typical day I have at work..:yum:
Good for you and the NO Parking sign.. some people.. hrmmph!:hammer:
I hope you can get some sleep too, sweetie.
Sorry about your foot.

Today and yesterday were my days off.. back tomorrow thru Friday.
My sister is proving that one has a huge will to live.
She's still with us.. :wink:
 
I had some chili beef thawed for tonite but got home to late to make a decent chili.
So I formed it into two big burgers, a little steak seasoning, onions, green peppers and mushroom laid down between them and under the broiler.

Vegies carmalized just right with the burgers rare, toasted two buns and covered the whole mess with slices of sharp cheddar. One slice of tomato.....

Added a Sam Adams winter lager &

My oh My!
 
Gee thanks Franc, been jonesin' for a burger for weeks now!
(will be dreaming of eating a good burger later) ...
 
thx lollie. spicy & sweet is good :)
saying blah cuz the lettuce was plain. i prefer it. got sick of those fancy lettuces & says to produce guy, 'yinz have any normal 'ol lettuce that's not prepackaged. he pointed me to it.

yep, peepz, it is a sun-dried tomato. so glad u got that soup after work! lafffing @ the duck-tape deal. maybe it'll leave stickies on the glass.

damn, franc, now you have me hungry for chili. w/ alcohol in it. my Dad used to add it to chili. now that i think of it, hahahaha, he put it in any food he could.:yum:i'm gonna call & harass him fer that now! i care not that it's 3 in the morning. your burger sounds deeeee-licious.
 
since i made a lunch (was 2/2:30-ish) i'm full yet. made cheese ravioli, tomato/pesto sauce/ italian veggies, a salad & another batch of bleu cheese dressing to blend w/ yesterdays. the strip steak & brussels sprouts, carrots & sauce i'd intended to make can wait. no point in feeding a full stomach.
 
K.. lemme think what I ate today...
Brekkie- coffee
Brunch- an amazing fish sandwich with some friends down at the coffee house (too much lettuce and sauce) but I devoured it all the same and had a sour stomach for a while.
Dinner: ummm Keebler crackers from the vending machine, then fruit.. then water.. then iced tea.
 
I had Swanson's (not bad for canned) Chicken ala King over green beans and brown rice. It was YUMMY.

No pictures on work nights because I am to hungry when I get home. LOL

Peeps, I love that stuff... over toast points and plopped on a big plate of mashed taters. (well, I used to) :sad:

Hope you had a good day, I did.:wink:
I hit Subway for a foot long veggie delight, sans the olives and onions- tho I did ask them to add that sweet onion sauce and light mayo.
First half eaten @ 5p.. second half @ 7p..
 
i went to the bar, got to chatting, & decided not to cook. made a great salad from the market district. an ensure to follow.
 
This is my first post in this thread. Had dinner tonight at HighTide in Ft. Walton Beach, FL. This is the first dozen oysters on the half shell. They were so good that I had to have another dozen. This was our third visit to this restaurant this week.
