Ordered a pizza and buffalo chicken wings.

Spinach Salad (w/ bacon, hardboiled egg, mushrooms, and tomatoes I can't freakin' think of the name of -- small and oval, not cherry tomatoes I don't think, right?) and then fried oysters (frozen ) w/ steamed veggies...

($12.95 for 7 previously frozen breaded oysters )

No... they're called cherry tomatoes.

I just remembered -- they're called grape tomatoes

Roma Tomato?

oops you already replied

Never tried them. If they're the same "consistency" as grapes I doubt I'd like them.

Nah, they're a little firmer, like cherry tomatoes. I should've remembered the name -- my mom gets them all the time -- I just had a brain cramp. They're actually pretty good...

I can see Mac & Cheese as a comfort food, easily, even for myself, although I never really had it as a kid or in college... Alton Brown on the Food Network makes a great one... something i have to learn to make from scratch! I have to think about tomorrow nite's dinner... havent had fish in awhile but most of it comes frozen from china and/or southeast asia (if anyone has noticed), its a bit disturbing... my fish monger says that the US seas are overfished and the military are the main reason for pollution in the waters... so now we get it from China which is better?? Wow, I wonder if people in Maine or Florida get it fresher, we can't fly it in from there but we can get it from china?? Ok im ranting here, can you tell?!?

We call them Tommy toes.

There are recipe links at the bottom of the page.

Signor V.

That picture looked exactly like the one i had last night SV
Great link my friend!

Tonight for tea I'm eating my left hand.

You really only need one hand anyway.

Mr. Babe grew them this summer. We had so many that we couldn't possibly eat them all. My mother even made sauce out of them, mixing them in with the larger tomatoes. We must have had THOUSANDS. You know the quart wonton soup containers? We would fill several every other day or so at the peak of the season. We were so sick of them!!!

Penne Rigata with meatballs -- poached egg on italian toast for lunch... tomorrow nite... the standard pizza, not sure if i will try to make it or if i will try a new place in hopes to find something that is more than mediocre!

...just fine. And if he forgets me again next year, I'll have to give him something ELSE to remember me by! And it may not be as ticklish as a scratched cornea!

Will you be dipping it in some sauce for extra flavour first?

Wah, wah, wah, give me some tomatoes, do my laundry, cook me dinner...

If you were taking care of the pool like you were supposed to, you could have just picked your own!

Well that burrata came in from the gourmet place in verona... $20, i took a pic if anyone cares to see it. It had to be flown here overnight, its something I've personally never seen outside of italy and only knew of its exsistence from Tony Bourdain's No Reservations Tuscany show -- its a 1lb sack of cream, curd, mozzarella with a buttery taste, all packaged in, mozzarella of course... deliscious, you can't eat a whole one, and $20 is relative, expensive, not sure i would buy it again, but at least I can say i've tried it, its kind of like caviar and dom perignon, not really worth it, but something someone should experience... and for only $20 its far less expensive than most delicacies... i had it with basil, tomato & some extra virgin olive oil from sicily... i am sure i would gasp if i knew the calorie or fat content lol.

Why do you hurt me so, SB?

I'm staying.

Don't you have any Clorox2 ??

http://www.eganandsons.com -- check out the menu, very unique, great food and reasonable if you are in the area, i had the lamb in guiness pie tonite. Its also a microbrewery and their pale ale was some of the best i've had!

Tonight's reception was at the Point Pleasant Jack Backer's Lobster Shanty. I was thinking "great, Lobster Shanty " because the one here in Toms River never really impressed me. Well, the one in Point did! Great service and great food!

I didn't get a choice of beef/chicken/seafood - she had a filet mignon in her hand and I said it was fine. I'd've preferred the seafood platter, considering it was a seafood joint. But figured since the other location wasn't all that great, why not try the filet (the photog said no to the filet and he got the seafood - that bastard! - his looked wonderful: scallops, lobster tail, fish, shrimp, etc. ...But my filet melted in my mouth - I was shocked! Excellent! (The guy at the table who got the chicken said it sucked. Why he asked for chicken at a wedding is beyond me lol)

Why anyone in the wedding biz would ever ask for chicken is beyond me, I don't even buy it anymore, i've had chicken sooo MANY bad ways, i now refuse to eat it 90% of the time unless its a well known chicken and/or buffalo wing place...

Who is she? And are you filming receptions every weekend now?

tonight meal steak (well done) herb and leek sausages,roast potatoes, carrots, peas and onion and Mushroom gravy

JG, Clorox 2?? Sorry, we're an OxyClean household!

I've got porkchops marinating for the grill as we speak. My sister-in-law gave me this marinade recipe years ago, and the porkchops come out great! 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 1/4 cup of water, 1 tbs. of ketchup and 2 tbs. of sherry, and garlic powder to taste.

SHE? oh Geoff must have meant his date, the girl he brought with.. I almost said that with a straight face JG

I'm sure he meant the waitress.

Had to feed the star of my next flick so went out (rare for me! ) ...vodka penne w/ skewered shrimp (a recent favorite)

The season is winding down, so not every weekend, Miggy.

DMC? "I'll visit him soon..."

Oooo, baby!!
