15 November 2011 - Steak & Salads

The original plan for tonight's dinner was supposed to be a chicken salad, but plans go awry and we have come up with something better!

As Sims had a sale on their Porterhouse, we just had to get some... and since we were getting steak, well.. who could resist a steak?! So steak for dindins it was.

Chicken salad will have to wait another night...

Steak, medium rare.
Cabbage, apple and caper slaw (I love love luuuurrrve this salad!)
Risoni, tomato, parsley and spinach salad with lemon dressing (And this one is pretty darn good too)

DESSERT!
We actually have dessert tonight!
Lemon and poppy seed muffins

Now which one of you is the poser?
Which one of you has the potential to be the star, the solo artist??

The chosen one
Smile at me darling... *click* *click click click*
Lovely dahhhling
That's gorgeous!

Oh.
Cupcake orgy.

13 November 2011 - BBQ Pork Ribs

I know I know I know...
BBQ meat AGAIN?! Yup... but this time, I tried a different BBQ sauce recipe...

This one I just made up on the spot...
Hoisin sauce, tomato sauce, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper and fingers crossed that it will taste ok...

Next time, we're gonna try a dry rub rather than a sticky sauce on ribs...

What it looked like coming out of the oven...
Totally awesome!
(as if there would be any other word to describe this....)

Awesome pork ribs

Because I'm so in awe of its awesomeness, here's another pic to drool over

So on our trusty old Blue, we have apple and cabbage slaw, BBQ pork, roasted pumpkin, and garlic chives
