I’m a good man I am. I made a roast and a broccoli rice dish for the week. And a really good potato soup. Chile cheese chowder. Good stuff.
She’s so busy now, I don’t mind at all. I like to cook. Actually… I made dinner formyself tonight. Just me.
Johnsonville red hot, with bacon, yep, fried that dog in bacon. Added an old hot dog bun in the bacon grease. Just to worm it up mind you. And soak up some bacon grease.
Fried that mess up I did. Served it with about a cup of sauerkraut, and lots of cheddar cheese.
Condiments where horseradish sauce. And more sauerkraut. My eyes are still burning. That was goooodddd…
Yep I love my Wife. I only do that kind of stuff when she isn’t around.
What’s your specialty, that your spouse can’t take?
Homemade onion rings. Sauerkraut. That would be about it. Otherwise we eat and like pretty much the same thing. I love my wife dearly, but she hates onions with a passion, whilst I will put them in or on just about anything short of ice cream.
My husband is not a carnivore. I am. While he’s no longer a vegetarian, he’s definitely not the marrow-sucking meat lover I am. So far that means chicken breasts, not thighs (I love the darker meat) and thin steaks and pork chops, not the nice thick meaty ones. We haven’t even touched upon the possibilities of offal. No one speciality he can’t handle, but I’d hate to sit him down in front of a good mixed grill!
But he’s a helluva cook, inventive and adventurous in the kitchen in general, and takes pleasure in feeding me, so it all works out.
I made a three-egg omelette with diced onions and green bell peppers, and dipped it in hot bratwurst mustard. I always like spicy mustard on my eggs. To go with it, I made a big batch of garlic-cheese biscuits, exactly like the kind they serve at Red Lobster. I’m going to make roasted cabbage tonight, just to have a little bit before bed, but mostly to last me the next couple days.
Tonight was dinner out - not something I normally do. It was baby back ribs at Longhorn - very nice, very tender. I cook all my own food, but I never cook meat at home because I am sure I would screw it up.
Since I don’t have anyone else’s tastes to worry about, I get to have whatever I want at all times. One good reason to stay single, I guess.
We had chicken cutlets, potatoes and corn tonight. Last night, we had some fairly amazing pork chops, since I learned about different ways to make them from the thread I started over in Cafe Society.
I asked my wife, and there are only a small number of things that one of us likes that the other doesn’t. It doesn’t extend to meals, just individual items. She doesn’t like salt licorice (says it tastes like rubber tires from the ocean), or carrots, beets, celery, bananas or rye bread. I don’t like canned asparagus, sushi, or most Chinese food. Those are all the differences we could think of.
Canned asparagus? Ewwww! That’s just wrong! I didn’t even know they put it in cans. I’ve never had it any way but fresh. Canning ruins just about every vegetable except yellow corn.
Suburban Plankton doesn’t like saurkraut, but I love it. I don’t like raw onions. Other than that we’re pretty much food compatable.
We’re having spaghetti for dinner tonight. Long day moving my horse from his home barn to the training stables, and I’m too tired to really cook.
I am making a gigantic pot of pinto beans with the bone from Easter. Forecast tomorrow: hot, windy, and stinky.
Mr. Creature dislikes the entirety of Asian cuisine, although I am able once in a while to force him out to Chinese or Thai food and he gets beef and broccoli or chicken satay (which he can stomach, but he’d rather have a burger). He is showing signs of becoming more adventurous in his cuisine choices, though.
Me, I won’t touch braunsweigert (sp?) and he loves the stuff. He isn’t allowed to kiss, nay, TOUCH me after he’s had that stuff unless he showers and brushes his teeth. Blech.
I’m gonna cook a big fat juice steak. I love steak. Would like to eat it with a potato but I don’t have one. I’ll have potato chips instead. I have chips. Mmmm steak and potato chips. I will add some onions and hot peppers. I love onions and hot peppers. I could eat onions and hot peppers with chips and no steak. But I have a steak so I will eat it. I will have some steak sauce with my steak and chips and onions and hot peppers. I have 4 varieties of steak sauce. I love steak sauce. I will drink cold beer with my steak and chips and onions and hot peppers. I have cold beer and I love cold beer. My girlfriend loves steak but she is not here so I have to eat my steak alone. I love my girlfriend. If she was here I would eat her with chips.
Roasted cabbage? Sounds good. Do you have a recipie? Also, mustard sounds good on eggs, I’ll have to give it a go.
Susan! . Meat is one of the easiest things to prepare. Really. Grab one of those pre-seasoned chicken breasts from the market. Fry it in a bit of olive oil. Serve with a bit of rice and asparagas. It’s really, really hard to screw it up.
I can spell, really! ‘Cornbread’. Mr. Lissar hates onions, so when I go out for dinner, or am cooking alone, it’s heavy on the onions, please. He also doesn’t like cornbread.
Sauerkraut…but I only like it one way and that’s the way my mom used to make it. Fry up some bacon til really crispy, then take out the bacon and put the sauerkraut in the bacon grease and warm it up. Mix with mashed potato and the crumbled bacon bits and serve with pork chops, bratwurst, smoked sausage, or any other pork dish…mmmmm…yummy…I’ve been meaning to make myself some of that for ages. Maybe tomorrow while I’m home and hubby is at work.
He likes bananas…I hate them
I like vegetables…he won’t touch anything green (he’s not the world’s healthiest eater, but try as I might, he won’t eat anything vegelike).
When my wife’s away, I make omelettes. Lots of omelettes. She doesn’t dislike them but tries not to eat too many eggs in a week. I, on the other hand, could eat eggs every day.
