Boneless chicken breasts marinated in white wine, lime juice, garlic, and whatever seasonings occur to me or I have available within reach.

Grilled to perfection while basted with more white wine and lime juice on a bed of rosemary, then served with rice and red beans, steamed vegetables, and slices of fresh melon.

Shots of rum to whet the appetite. Then a chilled dry white wine served with the entrée.

Then fried plantains with cinnamon and syrup for dessert.

I do it all year long. Ms. Customerservicegal likes the fact that I do all of the cooking, dishes, and laundry, she says I'm the best wife she ever had.

Tonight, something light, because we're going to a hibachi place for their lunch special. Last night, it was "clean out the freezer" time, and we had cheeseburgers and corn on the cob.

And need to come up with something for tonight too.
That said it's been a big day and there is football on tonight so will keep it simple.

Kids will have something early on the going to do steak, eggs and chips with a pepper sauce for us.
Wagyu steak though.

So, there's that. I get no say. He never asks what I might like, instead he'll announce our menu three days in advance.

Once in awhile I wish I could decide what to eat, but the tradeoff is well worth it

Last night I made pan fried salmon with brown rice and corn. Tonight we'll have brats topped with homemade sauerkraut.

I've already made up the Thanksgiving Day menu.
