SHRIMP'n'Grits

[karasu]

I made a TOP NOTCH SHRIMP'n'GRITS for dinner this evening

I believe FANCY people call it "polenta"

it was a blend of various recipes with my own personal "BAMS"

[karasu]

the GF is on the second okawari while I finish off my glass of wine here.....

[karasu]

I would enjoy to eat more but one helping is all the stomach can tolerate

[karasu]

mine had a nice gravy like this one:

Doggone it. That looks like some good eatin' right there Karasu.

^well I don't like to be arrogant but I have to tell that it was RICH

[karasu]

it's not too terribly complicated but it's just the timing of everything that makes it a hassle to make

okawari sake eh? Would thinking you would be drinking Dassai!!

[karasu]

^yeah I was just throwing some Janglish in there meaning that she was working on her second helping.....

I'm not Goggins level discipline; I do allow myself to enjoy the pleasure of food and drink but I try to practice some reasonable discipline, one serving and two drinks.

tonight was round-two, left-overs.........she is okawari and I am here savoring the wine and doing some reading

[karasu]

she can "okawari" because "matronly" looks better on the woman than the man

[karasu]

I guess it works for some men though.....Emeril wouldn't be BAM if he was a skinny!

[EVILYOSHIDA]

shrimp and grits are a good food
pretty satisfying

[karasu]

it was American Style Chinese this evening. TJ's Orange Chicken with a scratch-made Bacon Fried Rice

I don't care if something is "authentic" or not, I just enjoy whatever's tasty

[EVILYOSHIDA]

shanghai bacon fried rice is good

[karasu]

I used this Gal's Recipe, it says "egg fried rice" but she adds American Bacon and I BAMed it up by adding a clove of garlic and some ginger which she didn't mention but I always like the ginger in the fried rice:
