After I made my stuffed peppers last night, I fell asleep in my computer chair! And thus had no dinner. So I'm having what I worked so hard on last night: stuffed peppers and cucumber salad.
I did wake up enough to put them in the 'frig!
For dessert tonight, a chocolate cookie from WF. This cookie is like a light, airy brownie.

(330 posts)washed down with E&J Paisano (sp) red wine. I've been lurking for years and said to myself someday I am going to respond to your thread. I always read the healthy, creative meals you and others put on here and just laugh to myself when I'm having Oncore beef patties and Bob Evans mashed potatoes or some similar bachelor chow!

Not everybody thinks food is a big deal. I once read a news story about some techie guy who just wanted to get his nutrition through a milkshake or a bar of something. I think he or someone else invented it for people like him.
We're hedonists in my household, though! We enjoy the growing, the planning, the shopping, the preparation, and most of all, the sharing of a meal. I don't even mind the cleanup, as we all share in that task. I just turn on a podcast while I do my part of the cleanup.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

I had a dinner date tonight. We had bbq.
I ordered brisket salad. They served fried onion tanglers on it and I mixed ranch and bbq sauce for the dressing. Enjoyable and the meat was super tender and smoky.
Nice to meet you too!
