Well, I just made this. It's in the oven right now, and I certainly didn't use 3/4 lb of pasta! Now, I use Dreamfield's, so maybe that's the issue, but I had half of my pasta left over. I guess if this works, I'll just grab some more mushrooms and make some more. Possibly with proscuitto or some other protein as well.

It's been awhile that I've been in one. I didn't know that offered gravy now.

Sounds good, but the picture looks like scallions, not chives.

There IS a difference!

All I know for sure is that Squirt is grapefruit soda, and while I can not stand it today, I absolutely loved it when I was a kid of 4. I thought it was so sweet back then. Maybe they've changed the formula since, but I have a feeling it's just my undeveloped taste buds.

Basted. Fried in bacon grease, you throw hot grease over the top as they cook, something akin to over medium.

I can only remember eating a La Rosa's pizza at King's Island, and that was La Rosa's recipe (what the different is, I have no clue...)

It works as something to eat at the amusement park.

If I'm in Cinci wanting pizza, I go for Donato's, which is still technically a factory/chain pizza, but tastes so much better. But then, I could get Donato's in Columbus (when I lived there, which also meant more time in Cinci!).

Now when my wife graduated college, we were eating at a bunch of German restaurants that I know I can't remember (I'm sure she still does...), and those were absolute heaven.

Last time I was in the area (CVG), I had the choice of Gold Star or Max and Erma's. I went to M&Es for the burger and tortilla soup for my craving, my wife had Gold Star, which was good for getting that craving fixed for her. We don't get back up north often enough.

Snort. And I thought Californians ate healthy!

But I have eaten at La Bamba in Columbus where the burritos are as big as your head. But they have no breakfast burritos.

Now that I'm married, I'm the one who primarily pays for birthday meals, mine, my wife's, my step kids'. Although technically my wife is the bread maker, so I guess she's actually the one paying regardless.

In my single days, dinner was with a friend, and as bachelor bulls, we could afford going to Ruth's Chris Steak House (although one year my best friend did take me to Morton's, which was much more about the show than it was just eating good food), so he would take me out on my birthday, and I'd take him out the next month on his birthday. And it would always confuse them, because the name of the reservation is the person who usually is paying for the meal.

Birthday lunches either got split by the others, or handled by that person's boss.

You know, microwaves operate at 2.4ghz (approx the same as wifi) That's not really that close to the what cell phones operate at. And with a wattage of up to 1/10 of a watt (that is the max) compared to the 700-1200 watts of a microwave, it's pretty obvious that it is a fake.

I need to read better. I had to read this four times to realize what you did with the reserved cup of broth. Oh well. Looks good. I'll have to try this one.
