@blasting there's nothing funny about VD. This **** turned serious when penicillin stopped being affective.

Heading to Costco and picking up some Prime Ribeyes. Baked taters and creamed spinach. Fruit tart for desert. SWMBO picked the menu so I obeyed.

Out to a restaurant for dining and dancing with my wife, my eldest son and his wife, our two grandchildren, and his wife's relatives.  Lots of fun. 

UrbanForestTurnings

Costco. And dancing. Interesting. Such a diverse bunch.

Is cincinnati a stop?

No Cinci. But destroyed this on a Pittsburgh detour on the way to Columbus. Truth is, it tasted better after the bars closed 12 yrs ago. Still, good exposure for Young Henderson.

Nice mess

@blind99 - No, this was in the cryo when I got it whole.

@DMW why not get crazy with it and give it the beat down APL style )

DMW

@NPHuskerFL - To be honest, the outdoor temperature tomorrow may the determining factor as to cooking method.

@DMW What is it cold there or something? )
We're are gonna see lows in the 20s tonight and tomorrow night and some next week also.

My last girlfriend and I were both serious foodies, and one VD I bought her a very expensive bottle of aged Italian balsamic, which she absolutely loved (and shared).  I basically bought her some vinegar for VD and got away with it!   :-bd

 

The next Xmas I followed through and got her a "Gourmet Mushroom Farm" kit.  That... didn't go over quite so well (it was basically a box of cowsh*t, and only grew one mushroom).  They can't all be gems, I guess....  

:-S

Wow, that is cold for down there. It is currently 11*F here, but no wind. The high for tomorrow is 31* with wind and snow. I'm leaning towards sous vide right now to be honest. Sunday temps are going to be brutal up here apparently.

I'm really considering relocating somewhere south to be honest. Not sure as far as FL, but maybe NC.

I'm working, we'll celebrate on Friday the 13th instead.
Afterall, it's only our 26th Wedding Anniversary, last year was the big 25, got her a nice antique Silver teapot last year.  Nothing special this year, got 4 more years before I need to worry about a special gift.

Right. Think you better get her something nice anyway

My wife is frugal and money isn't growing on trees at the moment.  I was unemployed for several months and my current job isn't exactly the salary I was used to (I took about a 70% cut in pay, so I am still looking for a better job).  She told me not to even waste my money on flowers this year, she bought a fake rose from the dollar store, put it in a vase, and took it to work with her.

I LOVE MY WIFE!!!

UrbanForestTurnings

Nice doesn't mean expensive . From the heart is nice and the best.

I will not be egging today, or maybe tomorrow depending on how things shake out...

Wife didn't want anything egged, can't say I'm super bummed about that, it's going to be brutally cold and extremely windy later this afternoon and tonight through Sunday. I'm on call and it could get very hectic over the next 48 hours with the possibilities of power outages...

Instead, I'm going to try something I haven't made before and enjoy using some of my enameled cast iron

Making some beef boulettes with smothered green beans and mashed potatoes...

Wife has asked for a steak dinner tonight...I said no problem after many beverages last night..Listening to todays evening wind forecast, I will definitely have to pull on the "Man Pants".. :-c

DMW

I think I just decided how I'm going to make the green bean side dish:

http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/11/bacon-braised-green-bean-recipe.html

I made the creme brulee last night and my wife made cookies for the kids. This morning she is making angel food cake and lemon curd. It's 6:30AM and all I can think about is dinner tonight.

hapster

@DMV
Thanks for sharing that bean recipe... I think I'm going to go with that one as well instead of the smothered version

MDSH got me an IPhone 6 plus. He just doesn't know it yet. Won't he be surprised at what a great present he got me? ;;)

Such a sweet man

This sums up why I love my wife. Asked her what she wanted me to cook for VD and she said wings. :x

UrbanForestTurnings

Keep her
