I don't even know how to respond to that.

I think I would start with "What the heck?"

 

[Figgy1]

Better, actually.
See, someone's prayers are working.

That's good to hear. I was feeling a bit guilty posting about how good my boys are for the most part. At least they eat me out of house and home!

 

[MOXOMUMD]

I actually forgot about those.
Although, I can't remember if I've ever bought any beer in those, before. Hmmm...?
Probably 'cause of all the beer I drink...!!!

Our local race track sells beer in aluminum bottles but they keep the cap.

My boys are 19 and 20, 6' 3" and 6' 4" - I understand your pain.
And I have an extra kid living here, not as big as my sons, but a football player. Need I say more?

Lunchtime baby shower BBQ...!!!

 

[Wrangler-Rick]

well, speaking of cultural things..
I remember reading there is a huge uproar online right now.
Because its the Dog food day in china or something.. a festival where they.. kill, cook and eat dog.

Its very sad to see these scared dogs in very tiny cages, all packed and unable to move..

Brings new meaning to the "dog days of summer".....

 

[MOXOMUMD]

Yes, I am aware.

Keep in mind, we don't eat out very much at home, so it's rare for us to eat at any of these places. I've never been to Hard Rock at Baltimore, and I've only been to our local Cheesecake Factory twice and PF Chang's once.

We're doing some local places as well. But these are within walking distance, so for now, convenience wins. With me having food allergies, the bigger chains are usually more aware of what they are doing as well. We went to this local place a few years ago, and they had zero clue what they were doing. I'd rather not have to hit myself with the epi pen while here.

As another family that doesn't eat out a lot, those sound good to me.

Hahaaa...!
The beans (with brisket in 'em ) will hafta' suffice as the "salad" for now.
There is also some very good made-in-house creamed corn and coleslaw, but, they somehow didn't make it onto my plate, this time...!

Speaking of beer in cans, here's another relevant kitty pic:

Catnip catnap...!

 

[donaldtoo]

cheap restaurants do it to make the avocado "rinse" more.
Also to prevent it from going dark too fast. That gives them excuse to use not so fresh avocado (or to keep the guacamole for more than 12 hours)


Good restaurants make the guacamole at the time. anything more than 1 hour out of the fridge.. the avocado will turn dark, with an awful texture and need to be trashed.

No dairy products in my guacamole. Lime juice helps keep it fresher longer.

 

[donaldtoo]

OK gang, I'll hafta' finish catchin' up after work...
Have a Magical...!
Laterrrrrrr...!!!

Although apparently there are 11 countries that still eat dogs, including Mexico…and Switzerland?!?!?!

no idea about Mexico, perhaps some natives. But normal people? no.
Unless you count dirty companies who try to sell rat, cat, dog and horse meat in cheap offbrand sausages.
and thats definitively a huge ewww.

 

[Cesar R M]

None.
