Not at all, when making salads @ home, I like diversity in tastes & textures, so will usually start w/ some mixed greens, add some fruit (mandarin oranges a fav), some chopped walnuts, and bleu cheese crumbles along a little low-cal raspberry vinaigrette - other options depending on what is available might be dried fruits, such as cranberries, small tomatoes, etc. Dave
Well, we did our bi-monthly visit to Costco - last night I steamed up some Dungeness Crabs for us - just a pic below of that animal up close -
Tonight, my first grilling task for the new year - Australian Lamb Chops - simple recipe (marinade of olive oil, fresh-squeezed lemon juice, salt & pepper, and Herbs de Province) - I let the chops sit in the frig for about an hour and then warm up to room temp; some of the marinade is reserved for basting the chops while on the grill - high heat and about 4-5 minutes per side for medium - just had a salad + a Pinot Noir for me (La Crema, California) - next weekend will be Beer Can Chicken!

That looks seriously good...I wish the cheesecake were real on my end!! Beautifully done, Leelai!
Looks delish, Giradman! Looks grilled to perfection...and with my fav bottle of wine: La Crema!
Hi Ski... - the lamb chops were perfect w/ that preparation & on the grill - the Pinot Noir an excellent companion -
Next weekend, I think Suenc wants my 'Beer Can Chicken' - pic below from last year - now the first time made, I knocked over that unstable can - so bought an inexpensive stainless steel rack from Amazon (below) that will take two cans and is VERY stable - now this recipe involves getting a 'dry rub' under the skin of the breast & leg meat which makes for a favorable & juicy bird - delicious! I'll be glad to post the recipe for those interested? Dave

Lol......you know I didn't even get to taste it but then someone else bought a Key Lime Pie and I couldn't resist!
Great trade off I thought!
Hi Ski... - yes, those can holders are great! Don't think that using beer makes much of a difference - I'm going to try adding 'stuff' to a can of lemon drink (just have a bunch in the basement fridge) that might be more flavorful - like a bay leaf and other 'things'? Key Lime Pie - a fav of mine for decades! Of course, if you are in the Florida Keys where real small 'key limes' may be used, then an experience; however, I must say that the BEST key lime pies that I've eaten have been in Charleston, SC (a place that we just visited) - years ago we took our young son to Poogan's Porch, just off Meeting Street and he was not into desserts (i.e. NOT familiar to him), so I talked him into their KL pie - he LOVED it and often still orders key lime pie for a dessert. Probably one of the best KL pies that I've had in that town (which includes MANY) was at SNOBS - have not been back in a while, but my wife did not want dessert but after one bite she ordered one for herself - the tartness combined w/ a red berry sauce (probably raspberry) was just astounding - if you ever get to Charleston, then you'll likely enjoy that dessert there!
