Either that's a real small knife or a huge potato :)

He can always fry them up, or mash, or whatever. But definitely not throw.
And for his next smoker adventure: just cut them smaller

Yes, huge potato, normal knife.

They tend to wase a lot of food in that house. They make too much and then put the leftovers away but don't eat them most of the time before the leftovers have spoiled, so they end up in the trash bin. Its jarring to me and goes against the grain of my innate frugality. I was raised by depression era parents and waste makes me cringe, even more so knowing how many starving people there are in the world.

I absolutely hate food waste.
So much time and energy goes into the growing, making, transporting, and storage of these foods we really shouldn’t be throwing them in the bin!
 
Went to the grocery, then out for lunch at World of Beer. We sat outside even though it was a bit chilly. I should have brought my soft denim, long-sleeved shirt but thought it would be warmer in the sun.

Anyway, we both had the same thing, Mongolian BBQ pork belly street tacos with Asian slaw, cilantro, toasted sesame seeds, and sriracha aioli. Very good. They had apple ciders as well so I tried a 5 oz lunch pour of Cider Boys apple caramel cider. I was not impressed. It tasted like a mild baked apple with a HUGE amount of caramel, way too much. At least it was only $3.
 
My take on Halal Guys Chicken and Rice.

Made pasta sauce in the crockpot (slow cooker). I had some lamb bones and beef rib bones ithat I stewed and deboned, then added more beef, lamb, Italian sausage meatballs, mushrooms, onion, garlic, red wine, and herbs. Slow cooked about 44 hours. Served over cheese ravioli tonight and will freeze the rest.

omg, that looks so good, do you have a recipe? I'm always looking for a good red sauce.
 
3 Flat bread pizzas. N'duja with onions/garlic, fresh moz and Pecorino Romano; Margharita; and a sweated leeks, fresh moz, Pecorino Romano, and prosciutto.

Pic is of Margharita and leeks/prosciutto, which are the ones I ate. Craig's n'duja pizza looked deadly so I passed. He said it was really good though.

Ahh, yeah it's one of those "wing it" things. I never follow a recipe. I keep lamb and beef bones in my freezer so when the bag gets full I stew them until the meat falls off the bone, then go from there. In the summer I use fresh tomatoes from the garden, in the winter it is canned tomatoes. It somehow always tastes about the same.

Thanks for asking, I have seen your food photos and I know that you can pull off excellent food!
