What's for dinner...
 
What's everyone making or having for dinner tonight?

I'll start, though it's unfair since cooking is one of my wife's hobby's.

Braised Lamb Shanks in Red wine with Herbes de Provence. Over Coucous, with a very good Rhone red wine, a Mourvedre.

My family just finished the 2nd day of playing in the best Oklahoma snow in several years.

We're going to settle in to watch the Big XII Championship Football game even though our team isn't playing (GO COWBOYS!) and enjoy a pot of Pinto beans cooked with ham and served with cornbread.

Simple and utterly cheap but delicious when done right.

I enjoyed a Newcastle Brown Ale while the family opted for hot chocolate ... some people just don't know how to warm up.

It's been a busy day. Snow skied with my daughters this morning, did a couple of hours of yardwork and took the 911 out for an hour. I think I'll have a martini and order a pizza. With lots of meat products of course.

Worked all day on the floor at my factory then picked up a Pizza and two bottles of a local dry red. Pizza was great (pep, mush grn olives mmmmmmmm) but the first bottle of wine had cork taint :(... Dumped that and the second was fine.

VINMAN 12-02-2006 06:15 PM

Grilled skirt steaks, biscuits and gravy, and couple bottles of home brewed IPA

Joeaksa 12-02-2006 07:19 PM

I had a 2002 Flora Springs Trilogy. Also a 2005 Rosenblum appelllation series Zin. The Flora was excellent. Dinner? Went out to Chez Nous on Fillmore street at Pine. Lets see. Had butter lettuce salad with blue cheese and candied pecans. Some fries, crispy duck, lamb riblets, and..oh I forget. The food was average at best.

broccoli rabe cooked with olive oil, garlic and lime juice, romano cheese, and a splash of balsamic vinegar. leftover black bean soup with rice and smoked sausage and a chili pizza. oh, and a cold san miguel beer.

Made a potato-leek soup and a coq au vin.

Soup was fine, despite trying a healthy version - less butter, 2% milk instead of heavy cream.

Coq au vin not entirely successful, tried adding some tofu cubes which made it more of a stew than an au vin. Oh well, it was an experiment, still yummy enough.

Worse yet, I saved a glass of the pinot noir for myself (rest of the bottle went into the au vin) but knocked over the glass. Had to refresh myself with a Guiness.

Baked potato slices drizzled w/ olive oil, and cheese tortellinis, for the kids.

My mother in law is recovering from heart surgery in my house, so trying to be lower-fat than my usual cooking.

Take-a-way sushi and green tea. Green tea icecream with fruit to finish, warm sake nightcaps.
Isa no-cookie tonight:D
