What is THE DINNER?
ita, is your pain management place in an In 'n Out?
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

Ah, the Dinner must be a MG thing. Welcome back, Daisy!
Isaac just woke up for no descernable reason. He still wants to sleep. I don't understand.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
The crockpot has saved my marriage.
Honestly.
I toss veggies and meat and sometimes a sauce into the thing while Em eats her breakfast and by the time I get home, PRESTO! Dinner. Sometimes Joe makes a rice or potato, but more often than not, they are already in the pot.

Aiiieeee! Just got an email from my mom. Another younger cousin is expecting a baby in July (a boy.) This is a HUGE surprise. Really big. I'll bet her dad is plotzing.
Given she's graduating from law school in May, I may have to point her Stephanie's way for planning advice.
Eeps. I remember when she was born.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I can try to describe THE DINNER, but I wouldn't really be doing it justice.
We had Chartruse before dinner, wild mushroom risotto, turtle soup, crabcake and seared foie gras for starters, then carmel something crusted pork chops, blackened redfish with mashed potatoes mixed with truffle oil, and mushroom and greens salad with creamy vinegrette, I can't remember the name of the wine we had with dinner, but it was a really nice and smooth red, then for dessert we had real Irish coffee, vanilla bean creme brule, something that was a hard chocolate shell around a peanut butter mousse and flan. After that we had champagne at the bar.
I don't see the point in ever eating again.

I was wondering the same thing.
Perkins, I had sushi last night and thought of you.
I would assume the crock pot is easier since there's no hot oven. But I wonder, when you braise in a crock pot do you still need to turn the meat every 1/2 hour?

Burrell, I haven't and everything I've done has turned out great.

The benefit of the crock pot for me is you don't worry about burning the house down as something cooks all day in your absense.
Mostly.
I don't like how slow cooking tends to make things stringier, though. It's a mouthfeel thing. I've never liked pork done in the crock pot.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I don't see the point in ever eating again.
I can't imagine another meal ever that would be anything other than a crushing disappointment after that. Unless you wait a year to eat again and find yourself another magical THE DINNER.
Really. It sounds just... swoony, from risotto to flan and everything in between.
