Lynn,

That was for four people?

You need to learn to restrain yourself, I think. Or invest in an industrial flow-through dishwashing system. :mrgreen:

Four for dinner, but three additionals were here for an appetizer.

I'm plenty restrained tonight. Christmas dinner was:

1 French dip for the hubby (no salad or sides, just sandwich and dipping sauce - I used the leftover rare CI Italian Beef)
1 bowl of reheated rice with salsa for me.

Seltzer water with fresh lemons.

It was fantastic really. My kitchen is spotless and I won't wake up with a headache. :mrgreen:

In case anybody has not seen it, here is NTSC's wife's menu blog. Incredible stuff:

http://menu.vldyson.com/

We restauranted last night at a local pub http://wedonthaveone.com/and will eat out again tonight with friends, Seafood Night at the local country club. If it wasn't tacky, I'd bring in a camera (we are guests so I must be on good behavior). It's a buffet of sushi, huge scallops, crab, all sorts of fish, clams, mussels, etc etc.

:o EB Yes, her menus are incredible. I just can't figure out what Warner does with all the food they prepare.

Your seafood dinner sounds wonderful. Did I mention that Emma got an EB oven!

We had lasagna @ an old friends house last night. There were 12 of us. Old friends forever. Pete & two other males, slipped on ice on Wed morning in different locations. It just looked like a wet driveway. Pete got a scuffed knee & ankle, another friend broke a bone in his hand & fractured a rib & another was carrying his 1 1/2 yr grandchild & slipped to the ground. That could have been a catastrophe if he had fallen on the child.
:o Be careful out there.

:o Give Pete a big hug for me.

And, :evil: YES, :roll: you mentioned the EB oven. Should we just start a thread on it? Maybe Josh can make it stay on top. :mrgreen:

I am loving not cooking tonight. I cleaned and shoveled snow most the day. Whew.

What's an EB Oven? And why would it stay on top?

TheFuzzy is confused ... :?

Fuzzy, Fuzzy, Fuzzy
Do you not remember the Easy Bake Oven beloved by (mostly) little girls everywhere....it was warmed with a light bulb and for many of us was our first kitchen appliance....hence Lynn's board name "Easy Bake"

fuzzy to further answer your question, I never had one. I have lamented about this endlessly on the CI board. So Kathy was just rubbing it in about Emma getting one. I was saying that maybe you could make the Easy Bake post of hers stay on the top so it would be my constant reminder...

None of this is probably funny to anyone but me and Kathy. I'll stop now.

On to Last Night's Menu again.
