1. Oddly enough-Jamaican Egg Rolls

Simply a classic ground beef filling with a blend of spices that lean heavily on curry and cumin then put in egg roll wrappers and deep fried. Serve with choice of blue cheese sauce or duck sauce...

2. I'm not sure what the main will be

But the dessert will be crepes suzette. Crepes are traditional on Fat Tuesday.

Fizzy is depressed. Mr. fizz came home from "work" on Valentine's with the bicycle babe's stink all over him, and he is "working late" again tonight.

She's sitting on the couch, wrapped up in a blanket, smoking pot, and washing down Raspberry Zingers with big gulps of Coors Light. At about 10:30 tonight, she'll break out the clippers and cut her own hair.
