What's Cooking?

Anybody making dinner tonight? What's on the menu?

I have some extra time during finals week, so I'm the chef tonight - we're having Tuscan potato and kale soup with Italian sausage. Smells good so far.

Ahh, love that eye-talian sausage. Monkeyboy recently made a vat of polenta with bits of sweet sausage mixed in. It was good for breakfast, too.

everybody on this damn board is a freakin' cooking genius. doesn't anybody do Campbells soup or fake mac and cheese or just a pretzel or something? everybody marinates this or marinates that or chops scallions or twice-bakes or [i]something[i] or sautees baby greens and makes homemade wilted bacon sauce or what have you.

god, I must be too lazy to live. at times, opening the can just doesn't seem worth it.

I'm eating a pretzel right now. It was trouble opening the bag, but I managed.

ROLD GOLD?

those bags can be pretty tough to open.

are you dipping them in mayonnaise? that's the best.

LJ · 12-13-2007, 10:12 AM

oh yuk.

try scooping tunasalad with them, tho....that's not bad.

Shawnee123 · 12-13-2007, 10:13 AM

Mustard. Plain old regular yellow mustard.

glatt · 12-13-2007, 10:20 AM

The thin Rold Gold ones. Classic style. They are good. I think its the hint of sugar in them.

No dipping. I only do that with a real pretzel. You know, one of those bread style one. Then I dip it in a spicy mustard.

I often get home from work and have a bowl of cereal for dinner. Then I have another bowl of cereal for breakfast.

I've lost eight pounds in two weeks on this diet (I gained ten pounds in the previous two weeks, so I'm still up by two).

Today is our building holiday party. There are all kinds of good things on the menu - lots of meat, that is. Unfortunately, no alcohol this year.

Clodfobble · 12-13-2007, 11:06 AM

Ugh. I made penne in a lobster sauce last night (which was really just a fancy bisque that I bought to go from a cafe, plus some stuff) and although my husband said he liked it a lot, I was completely unable to eat it, or even stand the smell of the plate in front of me.

I had a bowl of cereal later that night. But I think there must have been an underlying medical issue, because these days I typically eat a bowl of cereal late at night after I've already eaten dinner, but last night/early this morning I wasn't hungry at all.

Lentil and sausage soup with a side salad and a roll. Soup's from Costco. Simple and effective, in this nasty weather.
