Chili, made with turkey, roasted poblano peppers, black and kidney beans and lots of tomatoes & onions and cooked for 8 hours in a crock pot, topped with shredded cheese, scallions and cilantro.

Beautiful day here, so I decided to smoke some boneless pork ribs. Put a garlic, rosemary, and thyme rub on it, and let it chill all day. Put Jack Daniels wood chips on top of charcoal, and let it cook slowly. Mmmmm!
Having that, with french onion soup, and a small spinach salad.

Anyone have anything good?

They're Wheat Cereal Biscuits you have with Milk. In terms of taste, they're closest to the common cardboard box. I have mine with a layer of jam on them before the milk

Tonight, it's an easy dinner. Leftover chili from yesterday with grilled cheese sandwiches and a salad of spinach and arugula.

Lobster, with a spinach salad.

So, Kroger's has had cheap lobsters, for the last year or so. First, they were $5 each, then they went to $6. Well sh*t, I was in there a couple of days ago, and it was TWO lobsters for $6! I'm sure somebody just forgot to double the ticket price, on the 2 pack, but I sure as hell bought 4 of them!

$3 lobster for dinner. GO, my cheap gourmet wanna be ass!

Last night went and had a "help yourself and eat all you can" carvery - so I heaped my plate with turkey, stuffing, brussels sprouts, cauliflower cheese, cranberry sauce, lashings of gravy and HUNDREDS of delish crispy roast potatoes!!!!

Talk about stuffed - couldn't move the rest of the evening!

But I've still managed to lose 3 lbs over last couple of weeks - thats 24 lbs lost with 51 lbs still to go!

Lord, I try to avoid the all you can eat places. I went to one for my birthday dinner, a couple of weeks ago(called Mr. Hibachi, and it WAS awesome!), but I ate 3 full plates of food....which was one plate too many!!!

But I'll do these places, once or twice a year...

You put me to shame, lol. I didn't even finish my small plate lol. I'm not a fan of food, really. Just something that's needed to live, really.
