Cooked Champagne Chicken for the wife last night. She was special and was the only one who got it.

I had reheated beans with eggs on top and toast. Was still pretty good.
 
I solved it this way (link below). I see you're way beyond doing it my way, but others might get an idea. I bought small tins, and clear printable labels, and put them all in drawers. One of the best things I've done. If anyone wants to do the same, i've got links to the tins, the labels, and a template I made to print onto the labels

I posted in this same thread before.

That's an awesome, and elegant, solution! I just don't have the drawer space, but that's really cool! :mug:

I got the tin cans at Specialty Bottle. The small ones can stack 2-high in my drawer. The large ones can't. I bought a bunch of both.

Clear Top Square Tin Containers

I used Avery #5248 labels (printed in my laserjet)

Avery Mailing Seals, Clear, Permanent,Non-Perforated, 480 per Pack (5248)

Good luck. It has worked out GREAT. Buy way more than you need, you'll need them (I have a lot more now in that drawer than what the picture shows). BTW, I have a template for those labels. PM me if anybody buys them.

With how frequently I cook, I really need to do this. Or go Alton Brown and add velcro to the back to stick on the inside of the pantry door...

This is pure. Reminds me of a story my friend tells about how we spent a million dollars to make an upside down pen and the Russians used a pencil.
 
I KNOW she's not REALLY trying to kill me but I can't help wondering. SWMBO knew I would be working on my thesis all day so she made me 'lunch' before she left for work.

Ya know, it wouldn't be all that bad with a couple of shots of vodka.

Oh gosh, that makes me shudder!

KOTC and I tried a juicing/veggie smoothie type diet - made it 5 days and we both felt like warmed-over crap by then. Was never so glad to give up on an eating plan as with that one!
 
Dude, you just blow me away with every picture you post. How frickin amazing!!

Holy floccing ****. I'm not a big seafood fan. I can eat tuna and shrimp along with clam chowder. But, I would eat that in a heartbeat especially now that I am approaching buzzedome.

Incredible.

Seared scallops on corn tortillas with homemade guacamole, salsa, lime zest, and chive. :mug:


You really need to come diving with me. I've got some scallop honey holes that would make you sign over your truck, your house, your wife and your kids to me.

I get to choose any 2/4.
 
Not for nuttin' but the first scallop found gets shucked and eaten when found, on the bottom. It's good luck and assures a fruitful hunt. Here is the action plan...

Flop over side of boat
Sink down till you reach the bottom
Find first scallop
Settle into the dirt
Pull out knife
Shuck scallop
Wait for scallop schmutz to drift away so you can see.
Take a deep breath
Take regulator out of mouth
Put scallop in mouth, squirt out ocean that accompanied scallop, discard shells, chew and swallow.
Put regulator back in mouth
Start breathing again
Proceed to fill up catch bag.
Hump your 50-60 pound bag along the bottom till you're tired
Go up100 feet or so.
Get back on boat
Drink beer
Go home
Shuck more scallops

Ever wonder why diver scallops at $20/#?
