I'm not crazy about them but my wife abusoutely LOVES them!
Honestly, I used to live for dinner everyday. I started on a weight loss drug a few months ago and my appetite has dwindled to almost zero. Last night I ate a third of an 8 oz hamburger steak, about 1/2 cup of roasted cabbage and onions and a small slice of watermelon.
Just had hamburger steak and gravy with onions, cream potatoes with brown gravy, cabbage with hot pepper vinegar, hush puppies, rolls, iced tea, and banana pudding at my favorite restaurant in Morehead City, Cox Family Restaurant. Great place with an unbelievable food menu. Going back for supper to get seafood. lol
Tonight: Fried oysters, green beans, slaw, hush puppies, unsweetened iced tea, vanilla ice cream with hot caramel.
Just had pot roast, mashed potatoes and gravy, black eyed peas, dinner rolls, iced tea, and vanilla ice cream drizzled with hot caramel at Cox Family restaurant. Heading back for supper later.
Black eyed peas is one thing I could just never acquire a taste for. I don't like them....at all.
I guess I'm just an old country boy, but I need ham hocks in them and I put, belive it or not ketchup on them. (A lot of people do that) It's the only way I can eat them.
Tonight: Baked BBQ chicken on a bed of Spanish rice, mashed potatoes and gravy, cabbage, hush puppies, unsweetened ice tea, vanilla ice cream.
Heading back home tomorrow so I'll be back to cooking my supper meals.

Last of the Reuben sandwiches. I used Boar’s Head deli corned beef so I could finish off the sauerkraut and rye bread.
Since I just got home from the Outer Banks yesterday and at my old age I'm tired, lol, I gave my tickets to today's Heels game to my nephew. I seldom go anymore anyway because of health issues.
So for supper I'm going with one of my go tos, Frito Pie. A home made recipe of mine and it's damn good, especially left over the next day. That is if I still ave room from my lunch today.
I'm still stuffed but want to eat before the game but I may wait until halftime. For lunch I had fried chicken, pork BBQ, potato salad, baked beans, hush puppies, diet Pepsi, and vanilla ice cream.

With the cold weather coming in today and a possible freeze warning overnight, I put on a pot of homemade vegetable beef soup yesterday afternoon. So we'll have that tonight with a grilled ham and cheese sandwich. So good on a cold night!
That sounds good! We always make enough to last a few days. Yet another item I think tastes better left over.
Cooked my first rack of ribs in the Orion.
Made some chorizo and venison chili also for the upcoming cold nights.

I thoroughly agree. That's why I make soups, chili and spaghetti sauce the day before I'm going to eat it. And like you, I also make enough to last a few days.
Thanks! The ribs took only an hour in the Orion. That little smoker is awesome. Chili was awesome.
Chicken Parmesan on a bed of pasta, unsweetened iced tea, Turkey Hill butter pecan ice cream.
Some of you eat really well. Like me, I wonder if some of you find cooking to be relaxing..
Chicken egg rolls and a salad with unsweetened ice tea.
For dessert my wife brought home on of those gourmet candied apples that coast around 10 bucks called Death By Chocolate. Her boss bought them for the employees. It was pretty good but I wouldn't buy one.

I stopped by Harris Teeter on the way home, picked up toppings from the salad bar, and put it on a bed of spring mix at home with a vinegarette dressing. Very tasty. Buttered popcorn for dessert.
weird but comforting
red beans and rice, with a can of sardines mixed in and chopped raw onions on top

Love red beans (or black beans) and rice. I'll have to shy away from the sardines though.
OK, I'm sick on my stomach right now. Literally. I ate too much.
Since my Colts had the day off I broke out the old smoker grill and some charcoal and grilled 3 fillet mignons, 2 filet mignon end tails, (for a supper this week) and 5 fish. Added in a salad and baked potato, with buttered garlic toast, iced tea, and a strawberry and chocolate sundae. Damn, it was good! I do suffer from a lifetime of serious digestive issues and I overdid it.
Good while it lasted but UGH now. lol

Filet Mignon end tails, snap beans, field peas, mashed potatoes topped with cheese, unsweetened iced tea, Hershey's dark chocolate miniatures and a caffeine free diet Pepsi. lol
