Last night (I guess that was still February, but I'm trying in any way I can to support Hunter's desperate need to be recognized for starting a new thread Big Grin ) I took one of my rare forays into fast-ish food by picking up burgers from the locally-renowned Vera's Burger Shack . Their motto is "You can't beat Vera's meat."

I meant to grab a couple of extra burgers to have 3 or 4 days from now, but totally forgot. I'll have to go back again next year.

Not a recognition thing Seaq. This was requested of me, so we avoid anymore "pie hole eating" threads. Smile

All in Feb... but I'll recoginze Hunter's new thread. Razz

Saturday was skirt steak marinaded in italian salad dressing.

Sunday was pasta and homemade red sauce. Hunter: my farmers market started carrying Pastene! You were 100% correct... there is a difference. The sauce was the best I've ever done.

Monday was chicken burritos.

Tuesday was PurpleHaze's Pork Tenderloin Surprise Packages. Always a hit. Big Grin YUM!!!


Go HOKIES!!!

Awesome! that's great to hear. Yeah, they are real good, right? So red and fresh - like real tomatoes. You can almost pour it right on the pasta from the can. Makes the sauce.

How do you eat a pie hole? Is it like a bagel hole or more like a donut hole?

Tonight we're having stir-fried staek with broccoli.


Just one more sip.

Well, me too, I guess -- Tsing Tao, the great bubbly of China! Smile

Actually, I agree completely-- Champagne does go very well with the less-spicy, more-salty Cantonese cuisine as opposed to, say, Hunan or Szechuan, which really need hot green tea or cold hoppy beer.

Although I do most of the cooking - Actually, my wife does this and I think it's an eye round, but I'm not 100%. The prep spices she rubs on it makes it and she puts cut potatoes, carrots and onions on the bottom of a deep dish roasting pan, which mixed with the juice (when done rare), makes an excellent juice to soak the meat when eating, almost like a stew. It's very good, but like I said - she does it. Smile
