It is on a cul-de-sac so the front yard is miniscule (all the better to keep the yard Nazi's at bay) but it has a huge back yard. I spend all my free time out there as a VERY amateur gardener (yard worker).

Thanks very much for the warm welcome!!

WOW....since the gateway murders?? I have been here since then myself...but I wasn't that quiet. You've been lurking a LONG time! Glad to kinda meet you! LOL...you should come to the forum get together next weekend!

Your backyard looks beautiful....you are very fortunate.....

Yea! Another recruitment to our dinner photo club! Do your friends and family think you are as nuts as ours do when we first started taking pictures? The first time I took a picture in front of my family, they looked at me like I lost it. Now, if I start to eat without a taking a photo, they act like I didn't wash my hands first or something. "Aren't you going to take a picture first?" LOL.

Not que, but PDG any way

Pork Tenderloin on the bottom of the pic has been rubbed with evoo and Qbabes Coffee Crust. The upper one with the Bone Sucker's. Little chunks on the right are a head start on this weekend's Pork Stew.



Pork was seared on the stove top and then finished off (over done) in the oven. Zucchini was sauteed in a mix of evoo and I Can't Believe It's Not Butter 'Mediterranean' (more evoo), salt, garlic and lemon pepper. Stuffed Clams were from the freezer at Publix. Not bad, but nothing compared to the handmade on premises Stuffed Quahog's at the Clam Bake



Breakfast was grilled whole wheat with Genoa salami, ham, egg and cheese ;)



No pic of lunch, but it was a plate of leftover ribs and beans.

What's for dessert? ;)

Well, we were kinda on the same wave length as rummy...It was pork tenderloin here too....cept mine was spicy asian style tenderloins...with brussel sprouts.



It wasn't over cooked <> but it was very spicy, so the sweet slaw helped to balance it!

So would you prefer chicken piccata to sauce when you come over?

I usually serve the chicken piccata with angel hair pasta with the same sauce I put on the piccata but hey, I think I can handle that. We need to pick a day.

Rummy, pizzas look yummy.


I noticed you had a delicious looking chicken breast with some sort of rub on it on page 2 or 3. How did you make that? It looks very good.

It was just grilled chicken with a friends bbq seasoning. You can use Lawry's, McCormicks, Emerils, etc, or any seasoning recipe out of a cookbook.

That is a good salad, I've had it there before.


Rummy forgive my ignorance but my hubby is not the grill connesouer (spelling) that you are. How long do you cook chicken breasts on the grill? I bought some kind of chicken rub to put on first.

Chicken breasts should be cooked until there is no longer any pink juice (blood) running from the meat. If using a thermometer, 165-170° is a good point to stop at. Bone-in will take longer than boneless and depending on how hot the grill is will make a difference. Usually, but not always, approx 15 minutes (+ or -) per side on a medium hot grill will get you there. Do not put any bbq sauce on the meat until the last few minutes, otherwise the sugar in the sauce will burn.
