dinner as always

Monday, 26. October 2009, 06:52:32

, , ,

after a long day and a rich experience of life working, finally dinner was ready around 11:00 p.m.
(and i had a lovely hungryman t.v. dinner, fried chicken; which will kill you if you eat it too often, in the freezer. i could have had it in a jiffy.)

just for my favorite friends... i, with my last dregs of creative energy feel like sharing at least the visual... the aroma of fresh salmon and baked stuffed clams i must leave to the imagination. it wasn't too bad. and well worth the wait. that's radichio and salmon eggs on the side. :happy:

I´m sure your body appreciated it :lol:

Looks yummy :smile:

Linda 26. October 2009, 15:56

Looks pretty good Scott. Sounds very healthy.

Angeliki 26. October 2009, 18:38

scott cumming
you make me *drool*

once again you are proven to me that calling you "meli" :heart: is not sweet enough!

*wipes mouth and goes to the kitchen for a snack* p:


Tyler Parke Young 26. October 2009, 18:41

Finally! Something I can really sink my teeth into! :lol:

PainterWoman 26. October 2009, 18:47

Salmon is one of my favorites. It's a bit expensive here in the desert but I have it about once a month. I'll either bake with some pesto sauce on it OR some goat cheese with parsley. Yummy!

Tyler Parke Young 26. October 2009, 18:55

Let me know and I will be right over! :happy:

scott cumming 27. October 2009, 04:19

nic,
i know my body loves fish... :smile: especially salmon... it melts in my mouth.

linda we both know it is healthy protein, no fat, it's a winner. they recommend no overdoing it though with fish. some are worse than others as far as mercury. salmon fresh caught is the safest.

i didn't mean to make you drool meli :heart: actually, i don't know why i post food... just feel like sharing, i guess. it's kinda like not eating alone. :happy:

tyler, this was easy on the teeth. what i like once in a while is a nice thick juicy steak. but they say it's not good for you. my body says "i like it" :sherlock: but i have to bow to the science of it all.

pam, hmmmm pesto... good idea. i'll have to try that next time. :happy:

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 08:58

Pass that A1 over here please.... :chef:

Nicolas Borgsmidt 27. October 2009, 09:42

I like oily fish. It´s very healthy. Good for the junctions!

I often eat when I comment,
that makes me feel better... (teens have only dinners with mom on weekends)
or I spoil our cats like this person does:

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 13:28

In the next shot the bowl was on the floor and the cat was high-tailing it out of there! :cat: :lol:

A1 is good but have you ever tried 'escoffier steak sauce'?

my absolute favorite fish is swordfish. you can tast all that tocopherol and vitamin in 'rind'. i always try to get a cut that has some skin on it. but once again the warnings about mercury slow me down on fish. mercury never leaves your system so it can reach toxic levels. :sherlock:

meli :heart: that's very nice of you, but doesn't that practice turn your cats into beggars?

Now my mouth is watering.....

another healthy appetite. you should all come over for dinner.

Nicolas Borgsmidt 27. October 2009, 18:21

That´s why I never eat fish high in the food chain Scott.

Allan 27. October 2009, 18:21

I'd love to. Almost as much as I'd love to invite you right back :smile:

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 18:31

I am starving for lunch! :chef:

Tab 27. October 2009, 19:03

It's not that expensive here. I like it seasoned and cooked on the bbq between two soaked slabs of cedar.

Gives it a bit of a smoked flavour.

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 19:07

I swear to god, I am going down to the kitchen, I'm famished.

Tab 27. October 2009, 19:23

Happy eating....

Hungryman dinners Scott? Yuck! LOL.

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 20:01

Any port in a storm!

Nicolas Borgsmidt 27. October 2009, 20:20

Came to think of it...I´m a dane. I eat fish every day. How could I forget. I eat mackerel every second day and herring in between p:
Strangly enough I never grow tired of that. I even add salmon, tunar, trout and codfish. In summertime they sell fishsandwiches all along the northcoast and eastcost in Sealand, the isle of Denmark where I live. Crabbesandwich is my favorite :chef:

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 20:24

When in Daneland, eat like a Dane. My greatgrandparents on my father's side came to the USA in the early 1920's. I will bet their name is in the sign in book on Ellis Island.

Tab 27. October 2009, 20:24

I think crab sammiches would be my favorite as well.

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 20:46

...pass the horse radish, if you don't mind... :chef:

Tab 27. October 2009, 20:54

I never could stand horse radish....blech..my Grandpa ate that stuff on everything

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 21:43

My step-father was insane. He ate horse radish and hot pepper sandwiches. He's dead now. :eek:

Tab 27. October 2009, 21:47

My ex would love hot pepper sammiches..myself, I am insane and eat a pickle and cheese sammich every day for breakfast!

mmm pickle and cheese sammich!

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 21:50

I don't eat much for breakfast. But I would eat that sandwich for lunch for sure!

Nicolas Borgsmidt 27. October 2009, 22:05

*leaves for the kitchen* :rolleyes:

At parties I eat shrimps...yummy

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 22:13

Been to the kitchen and back again with banana! banana Homer: Doh!

Tab 27. October 2009, 22:14

pickle sandwiches are so awesome!

Tyler Parke Young 27. October 2009, 22:14

I like mine with Mayo and tomatoes.

Tab 27. October 2009, 22:35

Then it's not a picklle and cheese sandwich anymore lol.

:yes: mayo!

Linda 27. October 2009, 23:05

I love lobster. Broiled lobster tail is ambrosia for the gods. I love just about anything seafood except calamari. That is like chewing latex. :yuck: And tastes about the same.

Pickle and cheese? I would just eat the cheese on whole wheat with mayo. Cheese is the best food in the world.

Tab 27. October 2009, 23:11

Yesdefinately on whole wheat.
You might be surprised at how awesome a pickle and cheese sandwich is.

I posted a picture of a sandwich I made in my random album.

Linda 27. October 2009, 23:16

I don't think I have looked at your albums Tab. Will have to check them out. I stay so busy keeping up with comments that I don't often have time to look at the albums.

Tab 27. October 2009, 23:44

No worries Linda..I am the same..

:lol: it sure turns them to be "spoiled brats! "
but if I don;t spoil the people/ animals I love ,who will???
:heart:

Tab 28. October 2009, 01:18

Ah well..I spoil the animals and people
I love too...

Tyler Parke Young 28. October 2009, 03:17

Hmmm. Dogs love me and I don't know why.

my mother, nancy, used to serve us peanut butter with pickles and mayonaise. i guess i liked it o.k. then. now i like the horseradish and hot peppers. i would love to try a danish crab sandwich right now... instead i admit i am having a hungryman chicken dinner. that's because i had a little windfall today and went to sears and bout a 40 inch plazma t.v. that took me into the night. it's very heavy and i did the hookups myself, dragged it in the box from the car... what a workout. but it's incredible. HD now i understand. i'd been using a 15 year old what seems like a tiny t.v. now. :happy:
meanwhile i see you guys have been partying at the kool-aid house with a host... dumb of me not to even check in until now. gulp

o.k. meli :heart: i guess you know what you are doing. :smile:

Tab 28. October 2009, 08:54

I don't like horse radish, or hot peppers lol.. I must be a very picky person.

I eat tonnes of pickles and pickled veggies. My body does not absorb salt and we need it to survive, so I have to constantly eat salty stuff to keep salt in my body.

scott cumming 28. October 2009, 09:02

hi lea, welcome to dinner. :smile:

tab, i think i am that way too about salt. i have a craving for anchovies... and things like salmon roe... i think its just the salt.

Tab 28. October 2009, 09:06

Lack of salt could put you in a coma...it's happened to me three times now. I eat a jar of pickles a day, and sometimes a jar of pickled veggies..which I also love. The nice thing is it's salt without a ton of calories.

Tyler Parke Young 28. October 2009, 14:54

My crazy Aunt passed out from lack of salt several times this last summer. Yet, she insists that she needs to be on a "salt free" diet. What do you do with someone like that?
