I know. The best option here is Papa Murphy's cook at home pizza - if I happen to be in town. Although they changed their sauce and it has too much bite fore me. Like they're trying to be "Italian" or whatever. (Best Chef's add just enough to make you ponder. ) I liked their old stuff.
So the next best is frozen where you doctor it up some. Kind of choose those Brick Oven square things because I like the thinner crust.* At least its food. It's better to drink with some food - even though it cools the buzz a bit (that's why I change to wine after whisky [extended] happy hour - but the bod needs some solid & liquid fuel. Ignore the belly feeling that is tricking you into not eating.

You could become CEO with that idea.

Honestly, when I'm lit I'd give $25 plus gas for them to come pick me up, take me there to eat, and bring me back home.

Been poking around in the freezer and I've narrowed it down to either a Stouffer's frozen lasagna and some garlic Texas toast, thaw out some beef and make tacos (which is more work than I want to get into tonight with preparing all the extras) or a ribeye with a loaded baked tater and maybe a piece of that garlic toast, or a salmon steak with some rice and green beans.

Decisions, decisions.

Went with the ribeye, got it thawing now. Not sure what to go with it now, just looked and all my taters are really small, not really candidates for a loaded baked tater. May just fix two small ones and cut them up in a bowl skins and all, then top them with some goodies (bacon, butter, cheese).

I actually prefer my potatoes with the skins on them, because I eat those as well.

I cut potatoes in half lengthwise and grill them. Works great with med reds for 'rosemary reds'.
Bit of olive oil on the open face, some whole rosemary. Grill on the back for 5-8, face down for 5, back for 5-8 or until as soft as you want them (indirect grill at this point).

I do too. I even leave them on when I make mashed potatoes. Just cut them up without peeling them, then cook and mash them.

Any explanation?

.
I'm not really familiar with that engine but as stated already...rules would be one. However it's likely a Hemi and they do make a metric ton of power...I'm sure there are reasons but I'm not in the know on that as it's out of my field.

Other than that I do like it but much like the Gone in 60 seconds Eleanor I can't stand the hood! I'm up in the air about the grill...not bad but I'm just unsure if I like it or not.

I own the Mercury version of this car and have spent a lot of time studying the body lines....those two things ruin this car for me.

Is this the one? Never mind lol ... I forgot to see that there were another 2 pages after the pacge I was looking at lol



If so I do have to say that is certainly impressive! Not my cup of tea but all the fabrication that went into is certainly impressive and it came out looking good!

Not 100% sure, but that sounds about right. I know my dad used to hunt them.
