That is a fantastically good looking egg. The rest of the meal looks great as well.

Fixed it. 😉

Ridiculously good looking meal.

What kind of a monster buys NYC pizza, then only shows a picture of the box, without a picture of the pie?

That looks wonderful. What kind of apple do you recommend with gruyere?

I didn’t get pics of the food, but son #2’s girlfriend told us she wanted to cook for us a couple of days ago. She and he went shopping and made us a wonderful meal of beef enchiladas (with green Chile of course). Looks like another wedding is in our near future!

Reminds me of the movie "Elf" when he runs in screaming "You did it! You made the world's best cup of coffee!"

Tonight Mrs M made her ‘famous in our house at least’ Korean beef. Our second daughter, 10 years old, announced she wanted to make dessert, and decided that cream puffs was the recipe. Not that she’s ever made them before. They turned out remarkably good, filled with Nutella because we didn’t have any cream: And of course she left evidence behind:

This sounds like so many conversations with my youngest. As the youngest of 5 he 'always' knows something about every conversation and feels the need to add his input.

I think it would be interesting to compile a separate thread collecting what the word 'barbecue' means regionally. For me, growing up in northern Arizona, barbecue was: The device used for grilling outdoors, the action or grilling, the event you attended at a friends house where you at (usually badly) grilled meats, and a 'style' of cooking that somewhat loosely approximated what others might also call barbecue.

This might be (quoting my favorite comedian) 'The Epitome of Hyperbole'.

It's strange. I married a California girl, and for the life of me can't work out the In-N-Out (INO) fanaticism. I get that it's fast, cheap and easy. I get that it is definitely NOT bad (in the way that many fast food burgers definitely ARE bad). It's a nice comfort item that is predictable and reliable. But...it's not amazing. Not the best burger - by a long shot - I've ever had. Or even had this week. Oh well, it's like a California cult or something.

Preach!

I made the mistake of mentioning this thread just now, and my wife said she wants one. We just got the countertops done and are waiting for the backsplash tile. I’m really not thrilled about another project. eGullet can be dangerous. And expensive.
