Oooo Babyruth, did you have authentic Ethiopian coffee with your meal? We had turkey and ham club sandwiches on whole grain whole wheat bread

We had breakfast for dinner GAL, I think that risotto would be great with peas. Thanks for the suggestion.

Risotto with peas? It's our appetizer every single week! Learn how to make it, Donkey!

That shawarma recipe you found looks pretty close, GAL. I've never actually attempted it at home, though, partly because the guy up the street does it so well, and also because a large part of what makes it so good is the way a traditional shwarma cooks the meat. It's stacks of meat, placed on a vertical spit with the heat source at the back, so all the juices drip down, not off. The cook shaves off slices from it as it spins and cooks. Throw the meat in a pita with some hummous and tabouleh and some rice... divine. I ended up forgoing the take-out and hitting Safeway for some steaks, tater tots and frozen corn. Nothin' special here tonight, but I was hit with a mean craving for tater tots. Mmmmm, processed potatoes.

Breakfast for dinner tonight. We had a debaucherous night last night and didn't get out of bed until 4pm. I just finished my 2nd cup of coffee, LOL.

Dang, lady. We outgrew that stuff about the time we got married. Of course we were both already old by then, but hey. I can still remember drinking screwdrivers out of coffee mugs in front of Saturday morning cartoons with the frat boys and whatnot.

LOL, GAL, lucky for us we're still newlyweds! Besides, it was one of our last hurrahs (see my post in the Daily Poll thread) -- it's time to start planning for babies, so not many more opportunities to party all night and crawl into bed at 8am.

Gracie do you do dessert with each dinner? We've never done dessert, neither one of us were raised with it but we are inveterate snackers. I'm wondering if I fix a low-fat/low sugar dessert for each dinner it will help cut the snacking.

We had homemade enchiladas, guacamole, lettuce and tomato salad, refried beans GAL no not always, mostly on the weekend, but the pumpkin spice cake we had Sunday was a cake mix with a can of pumpkin and a little water mixed in, then baked for about 25 minutes. Moist and good for you! We usually eat early, too.

Last night we had angus beef patties cooked in a bit of butter, worcesteshire and sliced onions, and cold leftover squash risotto on the side. Made a hamburger gravy for the patties and onions instead of using buns. It was just right. Tonight I'll be having the traditional lodge night bachelorette dinner - chili. With lots of crackers. It's cold and snowy here, too, so I might even crank up a fire in the fireplace for the event (which basically would make it a date with myself, but what the hell someone has to date me).

I was grilling a T-bone steak outdoors on the deck in below freezing weather last night. What we do for love, eh?
