9/4/09: Gourmet Grilled Cheese
This week we are going to play make-your-own amazing sandwich. Needed: fillings, cheese, excellent bread, drinks, dessert, perhaps some veggies and fruit for the side? If you missed breakfast, it was truly a feast. Even the western-bought grits were recognizable as the real deal. I know it is the school year now, and people are…

8/27: Breakfast!
It has been far too long since we have had breakfast for dinner. Here are some favorites: omelettes, pancakes, awfuls (waffles), pie (especially cherry, hint hint), bananna fritters, fruit galore, cheesy grits (and Lisette has never had grits!), bacon/sausage and their soy sisters… you get the idea. Whew it has been a long week. Looking…

FND 8/21/09: Homemade Pizza-o-rama
Last week: Muchas personas! Food and s’mores until everyone was full enough to roll home. A lovely evening. Can I remember all the details through the foody haze? Maybe not … Good thing it is saved on the bloggy interweb. This week: We’ll make the dough and sauce, you bring the cheese and toppings and…

8/7/2009: All about Pasta
If you didn’t make it last week for appetizers and dessert, you missed the most awesome of bruchetta. We still have garlic breath, but our immune systems are dandy! There were also other treats including shrimp and homemade cocktail sauce, cherries, edamame, several kinds of cookies and an assortment of frozen delicacies. This week is…

FND 07/17: pasghetti and meatballs
FND is keeping it simple this week with spaghetti and meatballs, made fresh. You could bring anything that would help turn lettuce into a salad, or your favorite side/beverage/dessert. As I write this I realize I have a good veggie alternative, so never fear. NEXT week FND will be away, taking a hard-earned vacation. Feel…

FND 07/10/09: Grilled
Friday Night Dinner will be grilled outside, sort of an instant replay of last weekend, everyone had a great time I hope. Ray and Mimi are away so adjust your expectations, but they said we could use their stuff. I have Hamburgers, hot dogs, and even maybe a salmon burger plus several veggie burgers. Anything…

7/3/09: Breakfast
Hi Folks, The veggie extravaganza was a great success — gotta do that again sometime. This week we are having breakfast for dinner. We will wrangle some waffles and if you bring fillings, we can make omelets. I am always in favor of cherry pie for breakfast or really any kind of pastry. Fruit salad…

6/26/09: Vegetarian Delights
Our friend Ana is here from NC and we want to show her some good eats. We will make some Ethiopian specialties. Anyone make a terrific veggie lasagne? How about veggie chili? Mac and cheese? Please avoid veggie burgers — we have done too much of those already. Also note the new Lost and Found…
