I'll have to ask my mom about this, PB. I've never heard of it.

We had it with cheese and mushrooms and a few rashers of bacon alongside it. Served with lovely home made chips(fries) and beans.

Fruit salad for pud!!

Tonight we are going to The Keg, which is a good Canadian steakhouse, for my brothers' birthday. They have good steak and it is always nice when I can enjoy one.

Dinner:

* Steak...It was okay, it was a little more bloody than I like usually.
* Garlic Mashed Potatoes
* Caesar Salad
* Freshly Baked Bread
* Birthday Cake

Not a bad dinner if I may say so. I've probably had better experiences at this restaurant before though.

I've eaten at a steakhouse called The Keg. I think it was in our hotel in Niagara Falls. It was very good, if I remember correctly. Did you eat in Niagara Falls, or is it a chain?

It is a cross-Canada chain (except in Prince Edward Island) and they even have a few American locations, but not in New York State.

I made scalloped potatoes W/ham.

*Chicken Shish Kabob
*Roasted Potatoes
*Rice
*Iced Tea

The restaurant was out of shawarma.

Taco Bell.

Chicken stir fry last night!

We grilled out hamburgers tonight. We won't be using the grill much longer with Summer winding down.

* Chicken Parmesan
* Pasta in Tomato Sauce
* Cesar Salad

I use the grill in February, Miggie!

The neighbors think I'm psychotic. Or course, they're not too far off .

Same here, PB. We grill all year long. How else can you cook a steak in February?? Of course it helps that we have the grill hooked up to the gas line.

Yup, same here.

natural gas line? I never heard of that. Is that easy/hard to do?

Same here. As a matter of fact, when it snows, I even dig a path from the sliding doors on my back deck, down the stairs into my yard, up to the grill and over to the hot tub.!

I BBQ all year round.

All that reminds me of the Christmas song- Over the river and through the woods...

Count me among the year round grillers. I keep the grill on the deck, so it's convenient. Just about our whole neighborhood uses their grills year long. The biggest impediment is not the snow or cold weather, but the early dusks.

The only impediment to all round outdoor grilling in the UK is the 365 days of rain we get a year

We will BBQ in Canada in the winter provided that the snowfall isn't too high. Living in Toronto, we do get slightly less snow than other surrounding areas (Niagara, London) so we are fortunate.

"Grillin' in the rain just grillin' in the rain! What a glorious feeling I'm hungry again..."

-OR-

I'm grillin' in the snow just grillin' in the snow I'm freezing my ass off just grillin'in the snow.

when I bought my grill a couple years ago, I gave my old one to a good friend. Whenever I see it when I'm at his house, I sing in my best Rick Okasec voice, " It's my best friend's grill...Well, it's my best friend's gri-i-ill...And it used to be mine."

Like Eddie Money sang;

"She was grillin', oh oh oh oh oh.
Flippin' those burgers, oh oh oh oh oh.
She was fryin' steaks and chops
all around the block, that girl was grillin!
Oh oh oh oh oh...
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-she was Grillin'..."

Well east coast girls are hip
I really dig those grills they use
And the southern girls with the way they grill
The smell knocks me out when I'm down there

The mid-west farmers daughters really
make the steaks just right
And the northern girls with the way they flip the burgers
They keep their propane tanks warm at night

They don't bathe, huh?
