Friday Night Dinner

  • FND 01/30/15: PPPPPiiiiizzzzzaaaaa

    That’s not a stutter, we’re cranking out pies from scratch. We start with hand-crafted organic molecules, artisnally formed into polymers based on xylose and arabinose.  These are topped with lipids in an aqueous solution with polymers of amino acids, onto which we add photosynthetic pigment-protein complexes, and pepperoni. We’ll craft vegetarian and non-gliadin/glutenin dining items…

  • FND 1/22/15: Seeking substitute

    It must be a blue moon, because there’s no FND this week. Can’t do without FND?  Wanna host?   FND has a tradition of substitute hosts, at your place or ours…. just let us know and we’ll send a new note. Otherwise, see you 1/30! Sam, Ray and the critters.

  • FND 1/16/2015: Comfort Food

    Bring it on!

  • FND 1/9/15: FND now! DEF — dumplings, eggs and french fries

    Just how it sounds.  See ya!

  • FND 1/2/2015: Meet the Levys / As You Wish

    Ray’s folks and brother are in town and want to meet you people!  So head on over with your favorite eats.  And please sign up on the blog, so we are somewhat coordinated.  We watched the Princess Bride this week, so the theme is “As you wish.”  I know there are some fabuloso sliders on…

  • FND 12/26/14: Finale Food

    The last FND ever in 2014 will have car chases, plot twists, and a surprise cliff hanger ending.  For food we will be clearing the pantry to make way for 2015’s groceries. One last, true, potluck for 2014. Soups are very likely, and home-made bread. Happy Holidays folks! — * Dinner starts around 6:30-ish

  • FND 12/19: Texanukah. Hannukas. Big, Fried Wonder

    The theme is Texan and it happens to fall in a holiday so the automatic theme-combo protocol is in effect. Also we like fried foods. We’re guessing quesadillas and latkes — big ones — will be on the table, and who can really tell what else.   Chili? 48oz steak? Jackelope? Have a great weekend and…

  • FND Today 12/12/14 Comfort Breakfast Grilling

    Time to make up for lost time in a big hurry with a late notice. Ray has been away for ages and was briefly back and is away again and FND is TIRED OF WAITING so is re-launching with three themes in one. That’s right, a 3-fer. Comfort food: whatever makes you forget the holy heckfire…

  • FND 11-14-2014: Grillin’ and Chillin’

    The weather is cooling off and we are ready to fire up the grill and firepit. We have marshmallows for those inclined. See you soon! Sam and Ray

  • FND 11/7/2014: Stir Fry City

    When the Sam is away, the Ray likes to cook in the wok! We’ll have the rice cooker going along with the stirring and frying. Bring along whatever you like with or in your stir fry — favorite ingredients, egg rolls, noodle dishes or other tasty treats. We also have some steamed buns we can…
