Nice.

Meanwhile ...

A Hearty Lamb Shank to fortify me against the upcoming Midwestern weather...

Hangry

There was not one, but two root vegetable sides. And arugula! And bacon! How many vegetables does Steve require? 

I actually woulda eaten that salad you made, it looked quite nice. And had a salad with brunch today. 

Lamb shank looks amazing. 

This thread is making me hungry.  I planned to have a PB&J for dinner but I ran out of bread so I had chips instead.

PBJ chips sounds awesome.

Many good things. Both the food and wines in Spain are amazing, and cheap.

Oh well, those are just don't wanna be Spanishes, you know, like the Scotches, but they can drink our good wines too

If you find it around, try this wine

Alison's Mac N Cheese bites. Tasty

Also mmm!

The Mac 'n Cheese looks really good, but shouldn't there be bacon in it?

Agreed

Atlanta layover has its benefits, apparently.

I made such a good egg a muffin with fried egg, bacon and melted Swiss cheese this morning. Nom Nom Nom

Debbie made chicken piccata with artichoke, capers and lemon juice. Green beans on the side. Everything was perfect and delicious.

That looks so good!!!

Looks great Mike (and a bit healthier than my meal). 

Meal tonight at the local French place:  fois gras to start, filet mignon with mushrooms and cognac cream sauce over sauteed spinach and frites for the meal, and blue cheese for dessert.   I should probably have a heart attack tonight (luckily I had wine with the dinner so I'll be ok). 

It looks great, Mike.  You're a lucky man!

A few German sausages, potatoes, and kraut.

And a pretzel. I was so hungry I only remembered the picture halfway through

Insert favorite sausage joke here -                                                                                                                                 -.

I need a picture of the sausage penetrating the pretzel.  If you're already done eating, my apologies, but NEXT TIME....
