Sunflower seeds and oolong tea

tonight was one of those rare nights where I needed to remind myself of why dominos pizza is crap. To my astonishment it's actually gotten worse, I don't even recognise these pizzas, if I didn't remember which pizzas I'd ordered I would of never guessed!



lesson learnt: don't be lazy and just go to the shops already and buy ingredients to make my own.

Stuffed mushrooms!  Mmmm

boston cream pie yoplait yogurt.
It's the most masculine snack ever, shut up. XD

although I seem to remember a leftover box of "buncha crunch" in the kitchen. if you will excuse me, chaps...

pancakes on a stick

BBQ Beef Brisket sandwich, tater wedges, and hush puppies (it was a catered farewell lunch at work for my boss)

A few strawberries from my garden and a banana with some herb tea with lemon and honey

  A real bacon, eggs, fried potatoes breakfast at the campsite.  Better than the warmed-over stuff I had at the restaurants on the way.  Bryce is nice!

$0.88 pack of hotdogs
$1.16 pack of buns
$0.50 can of hotdog chilli

and dinner for 2 for 2 nights. That is what like $0.32 a hotdog prepared? I am on a cheap streak lol.

I shouldn't read this thread when I'm hungry and trying to decide what's for dinner

Now I want a chili cheese dog w/mustard 

Fried leftover rice and kale stir fried with mussels.

Have just finished a bowl of chips and Garlic Aioli. Second time I have made it. Close to what I want, but still not quite right.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to cut the slight bitterness of the garlic ,apart from leaving it out of course! .  I have tried roasting it first but it was still slightly apparent.  Garlic oil instead perhaps?

Domino's  are just as bad here Muffin! Eagle Boys are the best shop locally.

Cheese tortellinis and a roast beef sandwich 

Trout and root beer: brunch of champions

Homemade chili with pinto and red beans and tomato paste and onions and chili powder and fresh ground steak (top round london broil ground fresh at grocers) and of course some embasa hot chili peppers but this pot was made with some very hot amish canned hot chili peppers.
first soak the beans about 1/2 lb each in a pot for 24 hours then rinse beans and re-add water to fully cover beans and cook with 1 pint hot peppers for about an hour then let it cook in its own heat. Then add more cold water and chili powder 2 ounces and 3 diced onions and a small can of tomato paste. After this comes to near a boil shut it off again and let it cook in its own heat and then quickly add the meat so it gets cooked with the food and no added heat. the second and third day is even better and better.

I usually add salt to taste and let each person add their own. Oh crackers broken up in it is great too or to bite after each spoonful

PS: I add carrots or other veggies too but not too much to take over the texture and taste



NOTE: This will make at least 6 giant bowls of chili and won't go bad for a week at least so if you make it for a smaller group it won't go bad very fast.

Spaghetti    I know, that's a surprise 

  The chicken and rice with that onion and cream of mushroom soupmixes and corn on the cob.

Leftover yesterday's Beef Stroganoff, except I used Chicken, and made it different to the packet instructions! Actually much better. 
Had it with Brown Rice. came out really nice for once, seems like the secret is to wash the rice first, then when it is dry fry it in a pan until it starts to change colour ( like a risotto). Into baking dish with twice the amount of water and  put in med oven for about 45 mins.

I've just ate chicken, gammon, stuffing, yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes, and some vegetables >.<
