Yeah I know I do...lunch is usually good too!  Caesar salad with grilled chicken today!  And usually they send up a pile of different nuts and a piece of fruit to snack on as well!  smile

Lobster is always so-so if it is cooked too long, or not so fresh.

I likes mine grilled

Sounds like a good dinner to me! I had ham and broccoli. But the broccoli needs pressure washed or something, it was gritty so I didn't finish it.

Ruby, your recipe sounds yummy. You know I wanted to go to culinary school before I wanted to be a teacher! Sometimes I wish I would have done so. May I suggest a recipe from one of my favorites, Giada de Laurentis on Foodnetwork.com. She has this amazing recipes for pasta with a carbonara sauce. I will trade this recipe with my soul because when I cook it for others I like to pass it off as my own. Enjoy....and ladies this is not friendly to the ba-dunk-a-dunk.

fn_print_logo.gifCinnamon-Pancetta Carbonara
Recipe courtesy Giada De Laurentiis
4 slices bacon, chopped
4 slices pancetta, chopped
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups whipping cream
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan
6 large egg yolks
18 ounces fresh fettuccine
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Saute the bacon and pancetta in a heavy large frying pan over medium heat until almost crisp, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the cinnamon over the bacon and pancetta and saute until the bacon is crisp and golden, about 2 minutes longer. Cool. Whisk in the cream, cheese, and yolks to blend. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the fettuccine and cook until it is just tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Drain. Add the fettuccine to the cream mixture and toss over medium-low heat until the sauce coats the pasta thickly, about 5 minutes (do not boil). Season the pasta, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer the pasta to a large wide serving bowl. Sprinkle with chives and serve.

Oooooo...that sounds yummy! And I like the fact that it seems easy to make. OK, I'm a ditz, but what's a ba-dunk-a-dunk?

I think a themed cookbook is a great idea, as long as I can steal recipes.

I agree completely! Who wants to do dishes and invest the time unless it is something to enjoy? Not me.

Oh I agree completely. I like to cook now and then but I love to have someone cook for me, even if a simple dish. I keep telling my teenage cousin (he's 18) that girls like it when a guy can cook and does that kind of thing for her.
