What's for dinner? I'm having ... →[More:]... Argentinian rump steak, cooked medium rare, sliced very thinly, served on a warm ciabatta roll, with melted cheddar cheese and fried onions. A sublime Essex-Philly cheesesteak.

I don't know yet. For lunch I'm having a bag of cheddar and bacon chips, some frosted animal crackers and a banana Twinkie.

Sounds healthy, jonmc.

For dinner, I have no idea. Lunch is homemade penne alfredo, a pear, and a rice krispies treat.

Leftover lasagna for dinner; a turkey bacon club sandwich for lunch.

Maybe essexjan will let us come over... Put on your hungry face, jonmc!

Years of cat owning have hardened my heart. You have no chance.

I don't know yet. But I'm eating oatmeal right now, and I just finished an orange.

Hahahahaha, that's cruel, essexjan. I'm a dog lover, but I still give in everytime she makes a cute face.

I've been just dying for waffles. So, probably waffles. Belgian. With bacon, and hash browns, and scrambled eggs, and an English muffin. *drool*

Mmm, old friends are delicious.

Gotta keep your energy levels up, know what I mean, Mike.

Better make it a double helping!

Perhaps I'll have an open sliced steak sandwich, side of fries, and a Pepsi. Maybe I'll start off with a nice bowl of chicken orzo soup. From the Court Square Diner.

You know, maybe I'll make that my lunch, knock off work for an hour or two.

They'd miss me here at the office, but maybe they should get used to that.

I'm having a pizza that is both very large and very square

Cold roast pork from last night's dinner (with a guinness glaze). baby carrots and asparagus. Maybe some hot mango chutney on the pork.

Lunch is salad, like every other day. I am very boring.

Lunch was leftover homemade makhani paneer (with homemade paneer!) and my favorite garlicky lentils in the world and curried squash and zucchini.

Dinner is ocean perch and something spinachy. Details TBD.

I'm having some free appetizers at the end-of-season party for my running club at Red Hook Brewery. That'll set us up nicely for next week's beginning-of-season running club party at Saunders at Rye Harbor.

Yes, we just switch the pubs at which our runs end, summer and winter. It's a drinking club with a running problem.

This sentence:

is arguing with this sentence:I am very boring.

Veggie chili. Just put it in the crock, so in six-ish hours I'll be in spicy heaven.

Same for me, a big bag of cut-up celery, carrots, peppers and, if I have any, some raw sugarsnap peas. Carbs at lunchtime make me drowsy.

The sandwich was great, btw. The cats are still drooling and looking at me with that look.

which is exactly why I eat salad for lunch too!

posted by gaspode 03 April | 12:50

What are you talking about? Crabs are great for any meal!

I lied. I had a spicy Italian sausage from the hot dog stand a couple of blocks from my building. It's a local landmark, practically, the hot dog stand on the downtown side-street. And the weiners are so. good. OMG.

I had tacos for lunch from the cafeteria at work. It's still wet and icky out and I didn't feel like going anywhere.

Zack_Replica's making chile and bringing it over for chile & movie night. Think we'll watch Mirrormask.

Mmmm...chile. Gotta buy some cheese & sour cream.

Steamed Rock Cod with cried ginger and green onions.

Ginger abuser!!!

But that's the only way to make it tender and flavourful. Gotta get those stress chemicals flowing to tenderize the flesh and the lacrimation lends an ever so subtle saltiness.

Looks like I'll be having Thai food from Thai Cafe as soon as I get home and order it. Bye!

posted by safetyfork 03 April | 16:37

Some red slices of stuff, some green things and some yellow things. And red stuff to drink.

Fettuccine primavera, heavy on the vera.
