Actually, I love bologna sandwiches, tho for lunch...I love bologna with cheese, and lots and lots of mayo on plain white bread...a yummy taste treat sensation...tho I dont put chips on the sandwich...chips on the side for me...

Indeed, I had my prawn stir fry several hours ago, and I know pretty soon, I am going to need a snack...

Thanks for that ping about the Outback Steakhouse....BigDom and I had a favorite steak house here in Olympia, called the Prime Rib...they were so excellent, and so popular...unfortunately the owner retired about two years ago, and the restaurant closed....BigDom and I were so saddened by this...not only was it an excellent place to dine, it was 10 minutes from home....

We then found another restaurant down in the Port of Olympia, which is also another excellent restaurant, for big, juicy wonderful steaks, and select seafood...

My son, tho, recommended that we try the Outback Steakhouse, which is over on the west side of Olympia...a little more travel time, but the son assured us some time ago, that it was an excellent place to get a great steak dinner...

He recommended us to the Outback a few months ago, as he knows how much we enjoy going out for great steaks...now this story just provided more incentive for us to give the Outback Steakhouse a try....

Thanks for that well needed ping and push for us to venture to Outback...I also checked their website, and their menu, and notice that they have many great beers to sample...BigDom will approve of that...

They also have a specialty appetizer called a Bloomin' Onion, which is a vidalia onion that has been breaded and deep fried and it puffs up like a peony flower.It's a keeper :-)

Best steak in the world is always right at home, though ;-)

I will rush to your defense and make them prove it
these slurs cannot stand

c'est un canard

[palo verde]

courage habs
I will defense you in french
la vertite ces't moi
M Habs jamais mange baloney

[andysandmikesmom]

I have heard about that Bloomin' Onion, and have seen it in commercials...it looks like it would be great...

We just had steak the other day...its always yummy at home, you are right...but I notice that Outback also has Prime Rib, which is my all time favorite...

That is what we used to like about that Prime Connection restaurant near us...they had the best Prime Rib, and had it in about five sizes....they always had it in a very small size, for the seniors who made it in for the early bird special...then they had three in between sizes, and then they had a super duper giant sized prime rib....not too many people ordered that as it was just so big...

But our Andy is a big, big boy, and can really eat well...so when we took him there the first time, he ordered the big super duper size Prime Rib....

When the waitress came over with our food, she drove it on her cart...and dished out all the dishes, except for the super duper sized Prime Rib for Andy....

She had it on the bottom of the cart, and when she bent down to get it, she moaned and groaned, pretending that his Prime Rib was so big and heavy, she could hardly lift it off of the cart...it was so funny....

I dont think she believed that someone could finish that thing off...but Andy, as I said, is a big, big boy, and rarely does he leave anything on his plate...he downed that Prime Rib in easy fashion....no wonder it cost me a small fortune to feed that boy...

When Andy went away to college, Cornell actually had fairly good and decent food service which they provided the students...and you could get as much as you wanted...but when Andy did his third year in England, Imperial College did not allow second or third servings...and they gave each student the same portions....

Now one time, Andy all 6'5" of him, was in line next to a wee lass, of probably no more than 5'2"...and the food service person gave them each exactly the same meal, same potions...poor Andy just could not take it any longer, and he burst into a tirade about the school not feeding him enough for the money he was paying...I had to keep putting money into his checking account here, so that he could access it over in England, and then thankfully there was actually a Safeway store there, where he would go to buy extra food to fill up on...poor Andy, arguing with the British, about how much the American participation in WW11 contributed to the winning of that war for the Allies, and having to argue with them about feeding him properly...

Sometimes I think the British were glad to get rid of Andy...

quelle horreur
M Habs mange raddachio

qu'est ca sais, radachio, habs?

is it a vegatable?

[palo verde]

it was on andy's round the world tour that he argued with safeway owner in England?

[andysandmikesmom]

No, he got into that argument during his third year of college...he did his first two years at Cornell, and then he was an exchange student in England for a year, at Imperial College....he was paying room and board there, and figured for the money he was paying, they should have fed him better...and he let them know about it too...

When Andy is hungry, he is a grumpy boy...

[palo verde]

merde
they have proof you ate baloney sandwich
my defense was short lived
but I was valiant on your behalf mon petit chou
never mind we still have Les Habs in 2003
GO Habs!

[andysandmikesmom]

Raddichio is a small red, head, type veggie like lettuce...but its head is smaller....its yummy....kind of spicey, and I love it in salads...

[palo verde]

I am on andyside
for the money you were paying
they should have given him satisfying meals

[palo verde]

raddichio sounds delish andysmom
I dont understand why habs eats raddichio sandwiches tho
doesnt it sound like odd lunch

[palo verde]

did andy like the food in england
I was there once and loved their sausages
bangers they were called (I think)
celtic gal, is that the name?

[habs4ever]

Really? I have eaten plenty of baloney around FR, trust me ;-)

I think they care more about ignoramus' than oscar mayer ;-)

[palo verde]

such a shame all your secrets are coming out over there
did you really sleep with all those women

[andysandmikesmom]

I did not know that le Habs ate raddichio sandwiches...I have never tried it...it might actually be good...

My brother was also a very big boy, and a huge eater...one time when he and I were in our later teenage years, my parents went fishing and camping, and we did not want to go with...I had a hot date, I suppose, and my brother had something else going on, so my parents went on their weekend fishing trip, and me and my brother stayed home...my aunt and uncle lived downstairs, and would keep an eye on us, and were there if we needed help...

Anyway, I was a pretty good cook even as a teenager...so my brother was out somewhere, and so I cooked dinner...I made a great big round steak with tomatoes, and onions and sauce, and it looked yummy...after I finished cooking one of my girlfriends wanted me to go out with her shopping for a little while....so I went and left a note on the stove, telling my brother dinner was in the pan, and he should heat it up and serve himself....

Well, it was a great big pan full of round steak and the veggies, and I figured it was enough to serve 4 regular eaters, so it should be enough for him and me...

When I got home from shopping with my girlfriend, I was so hungry, and got ready to heat myself up some roundsteak...I opened the lid on the pan, and YIKES...all the food was gone...my brother ate every single bit of the round steak and veggies...

He relates how he was in his room, and heard the blood curdling scream, coming from my big mouth in the kitchen, calling him a pig....He thought everything in that pan was for him, and so he ate it all....

Gosh, I was mad...spent all that time cooking, and never got one bite...my poor brother, I sure ranted at him...he did not care tho...his tummy was full, and said if I had not wanted him to eat all that food, I should not have left it in the pan...I should have taken out my portion and put it in the fridge for later consumption...

But I never thought any human being could eat that much in one setting, as my brother ate that evening...

Little did I realize that my own son would have such a big appetite, and be able to eat just as much as my brother did on that night...
