Holy crow!!  A total melding of succulent and tasteful ingredients, artfully presented to stimulate the salivary...oh he**, that just looks and sounds great!!!!!!

Very nice work Dotch!!! Looks yummy!!!

Looks like a nice plate there with the lamb!!!  I used to drink a lot of gin way back, favorite of mine.  Gin tonics on the rocks.  Swallowed the worm from a tequila bottle once.  No more tequila.  I haven't drank hard stuff for many years on a regular basis.  About the only time I do now is at deer camp, rest of the time it's beer.  But if someone offered me a nice cold gin tonic on a hot summer day, I would not refuse it.  good luck.

Then check out this real Reb's fried rice.....   With shrimp, chopped egg, smoked ham chunks, and green onions. One of those non-RH sausages that I had to get rid of. Scratch nite here; whatever was handy. Had the shrimp and sausage in the freezer, last of it. Last box of Rice.....er, uh... last real rice I had. 

 

[lovebigbluegills]

Rice a roni with shrimp!!!!! Nice!!!! 

[delcecchi]

Poor shrimp, that they had to give their lives to end up in degradation. 

[Dotch]

Gotta admire your improvisational skills Reb. The fork police must be off to dreamland already. You should escape their wrath until mañana.

I just received Trader Joe's monthly flyer, they have Fragrant Rice (aka JASMINE RICE) on sale......3 lbs for $2.99  I'm gonna zoom over to Del's, grab him by the ears, and push him into TJ's.  Once there, my buddy Mike will drag him right to the rice bin...without benefit of canoe.

I've still got a good part of my 25 pound bag of "lucky god of fortune" brand jasmine rice.  You can buy it at the asian food stores or even Costco/Sams.  No funny chemicals or flavor packets in real rice.  Basmati is good also.  "from the foothills of the Himalayas"

Even the grass seed from the lakes up north is good. 

 

[RebelSS]

25 lbs??!  And you say it's tough cooking for two, so you don't buy big quantities....whaddya doin'?! Running a rice bowl kitchen for indigent third world folk?!?? This sounds serious. I may have to appoint LL to look into this when he gets done cleaning his grill. 

[delcecchi]

It doesn't go bad.  Now eat your bowl of rice. 

rice is for eating grass is for .....smoming.

And chunk light tuna is one step above cat food.  maybe.

1/2 the times I've been to Costco I want to buy that 25 pound bag of rice.  I think it's like $12 or something.  Whatever the price I just want to buy it and I get shut down every time.  I have no clue what we'd do with it.  Probably give it out next NFL season as prizes on HSO!

the only way that post would be better is if it said "I'm almost out of my 25 pound bag of rice and I'm heading out to get another one..."  Do you ever not have a "good part" of a 25 pound bag of rice remaining?

Ya, where the chipmunks ate a hole thru the bag.

I made a big plate of the totchos today for diner before the Pitt v. Wisconsin game. Had Tator tots, green onion, red, green and yellow peppers, black olives,  jalapeños, cheese, sour cream/ranch dressing, shredded cheese a little salsa and bacon   

[RebelSS]

Looks great, Coffee! Something different! 

[bobberineyes]

Looking super  coffee,  a fork in each hand ,oh wait, skip the fork and go with a large spoon for shoveling.  You should be safe, no spoon police around here..

[lovebigbluegills]

Looks great Coffee!!! I think the large spoon is the best method, unless you'really partial to small spatulas!!!

[Coffee118]

Thanks, I forget what I was looking on the food network app and found this by mistake. It didn't last long, it involved a medium spoon and yes, plenty of shoveling
