NJCher primitive suffers through Burger King for dinner

I brought this over because I have noticed a disturbing trend in the cooking and baking forum.  The primitives have started resorting to stock images of what they *say* they are cooking or baking.  At first I thought this might have something do with all of the attention NJCher's puke stew got, and they were jealous.  But now, I'm convinced it's because they aren't making any of the stuff they claim.  Stock images are a lot easier to post than actually creating something in the kitchen.

What's for Dinner, Sun., Sept. 13, 2015

I've got a pocket of cash and I'm headed to join my girlfriends at the Slavic Festival. There are three going on, and all in the same neighborhood. Here's what's for sale at one of them:

HOT DOGS, HAMBURGERS, ITALIAN SAUSAGE, HOMEMADE SLAVIC SPECIALTIES INCLUDING: PIEROGI, HALUSHKI, STUFFED CABBAGE, HOMEMADE DESSERTS, ICE CREAM, BEVERAGES

So maybe I'll be picking up some cabbage rolls for tonight's dinner. Plus whatever else my pocket will buy.

It's a beautiful day, but the downside of that is there might be so many people I won't find my friends.

1. Spaghetti and meatballs

from the freezer.

I like the finality of this post, as if it's the primitive's last meal.

2. I was sent to the store for polska kielbasa, but I don't know for sure

that that will be part of dinner. All I know is that the housemate announced that our 'pinterest' board of recipes to try was pretty full and our one of recipes we HAD tried was looking pretty anemic still.

Doing nothing- all in a day's work for a primitive.

4. Braised rabbit

(Let's try this again...)

The Mexican grocery had a sale on fresh rabbit, so why not? With mashed spuds (since there will be gravy) and steamed broccoli.

My backyard neighbors, however, are not amused:

Rabbit, from the Mexican grocery store.  No thanks.

6. We used to eat rabbit all the time.

Four years ago a dear friend convinced me that a pet rabbit would enrich my life   We no longer eat rabbit and I am amazed how great a pet he is. Quiet, lots of personality and plays well with the cat. When he crosses the bunny rainbow bridge we may try rabbit stew again

 



Suddenly, tragedy!!

8. well, so much for the Slavic festival

I didn't get to go because another friend called me with an emergency. I had to help her out. The trip involved a trip to Nyack, NY, though, and that was very beautiful. No food except for Burger King jalopeno burgers! LOL. Aerows must be wincing.

My friend has helped me out of many rough spots, so it was my pleasure to help her today.

She is in a new business and very stretched for time. I learned her refrigerator has been on the fritz for over 30 days now, and she hasn't had time to harass the refrigerator guy to actually show up. Thus she has had no fresh food for a month--just Burger King and pizzas and stuff like that. I intend to make her some salads and vegetable dishes (also fruit) and take it over in a cooler.

Uh, no, DUMMIE, you don't have any friends, which is why you ended up going to BK by yourself later on.

My rule is to never eat a small animal sold by a Mexican unless its feet and tail are intact for positive ID.

One of my ex-boyfriends (Mexican-American) showed me this critter in his trunk.  It was an armadillo, destined for his grandpa's house and cookpot.  I thought it was super gross even though he told me he didn't eat that shit.
Later I discovered dillos are carriers of leprosy.

Waiting for Thumper to die so y'all can chow down on his withered old carcass.
Heathens! The whole damn island is overrun with liberal heathens.

Yeah. I figure the DUmmie just got sold a possum.

[BattleHymn]

Yeah. I figure the DUmmie just got sold a possum.

I would eat a good old Missouri opossum before I'd touch any meat out of a Mexican food market.

For all that primitive knows, he was chowing down on Bob's foot, or a piece of dummymeat carved off of Kirk's vast person.

You could be right, but I would think the fat content would be a clue.

On second thought DUmmies can't recognize complicated things like clues so odds are the DUmmie ate a DUmmie.

The ears, Gobucks, the ears!

Otherwise, how's the cat population in your neck of the woods?

My backyard neighbors, however, are not amused:

Now, why would that be?  They don't know what you're putting on the BBQ.  Unless, of course, you broadcast it.

[freedumb2003b]

Yeah. I figure the DUmmie just got sold a possum.

More likely a tabby or a chihuahua.

That leprosy cooks right out.

I've shared this experience here before:

I had dinner once at what was apparently a very fine restaurant in the Zona Rosa in Mexico City. Outdoor tables, a strolling mariachi band, excellent service.

There was no English on the menu and I don't speak mexican, but I was very hungry and wanted a big slab of meat, so I just spread my hands and told the waiter, "Carne grande!"

They brought out a roasted animal about the size of a small beagle or very large cat, but it was missing its head and all its extremities.

It turned out to be very good.

I'm pretty sure it was a baby goat, but I've always wondered if it was really born with hooves, or paws.

My daughter has a pic from a meat market stall in SE China. It shows what looks like whole skinned rabbits with long ears. But it's canine cuisine.

In my former home town the alley just north of Main Street in downtown is named Dead Cat Alley. And there are restaurants on that part of Main Street.
