...so I've been cooking up the stuff that's not on her diet...which makes it not on mine. Funny how marriage works that way.

Started off with a pizza on Friday. Three cheese and pepperoni and salami.

My usual dough recipe, Egg setup (Bge stone on top of the AR) and temp, but for some reason it didn't cook up like normal. Bottom was getting done, so I popped it on the oven under the broiler to finish up the top. Only thing I can think of is that my dough was less than 24 hours old and I usually let it go 48 to 72 hours. Oh well, still good.

Last night I went with burgers, 1/4lb patties, used fish sauce which the wife won't let me use once she saw how much sodium is in it. So good...

Double meat, double cheese, corn and some fries. Apparently we were out of tots.

Sitting here at work, trying to finish up and wondering what's on the menu tonight. Me thinks wings might be in order...

    Both great ideas. Kinda thinking ribs might be good. But then again, my mini hasn't seen much action lately, so maybe I'll cook something on that....

    Looks great Griffin!  I agree, when my wife travels, I always cook outside her 'diet'.   Since she is town this weekend, it was swordfish, not too bad...
