My DH grilled a spatchcocked local chicken that I rubbed with “Kabul chicken” seasoning (coriander, rose petals, etc.). Served with garlicky linguini primavera and tomato-braised pole beans with garlic, onion, allspice, and bay leaves.

That whole setup looks heavenly.

That’s super creative. How was it?

What’s in the box to the right?

Another Shake Shack burger.

I guess I was too embarrassed to admit that I was, ahem, “double fisting”

Fridays have generally been delivery from our favorite sushi place. BF got the “regular sushi” (7 pieces of nigiri and a spicy tuna roll) and an order of spicy salmon roll. I got the sake don (salmon sashimi on sushi rice, with pickles) and an ikura (salmon roe) order to add on. Pic is of mine since I got too busy eating after to snap a picture of his.

They’re that good?:thinking:

linguini with mushroom cream sauce. i had some leftover mushroom soup that tasted great but was very rich. instead of thinning it out, i converted it into a sauce for pasta. had the feel of a stroganoff.

Tried to catch a friend’s last improv show for a year, only to show up and find out it was sold out. Well, boo hiss!

Went straight to the gay bar (see what I did there?) for HH drinks and a bite to eat. We were torn between the crab linguine, the tuna toast, and the goat cheese polenta with mini meatballs. Decided on the polenta (good choice!), then saw the weekend special of Malpeque oysters. Dinner solved.

As for tonight, our wonderful buddy was delegated to prepare a whole duck we purchased at Aldi many moons ago, and after reading his email about our upcoming meal, I can’t help but feel pretty excited :slight_smile:

Fellow Gourmands,

Greg and Tash’s duck has been thawed, marinated in a plethora of spices and sauces, parboiled in hot water, plunged in an ice bath, basted with malt syrup, and is being airdried. The skin should already be naturally parched and wizened by the time the bird is fired. I am expecting moist flesh enveloped in crispy epidermis.

We shall congregate at 7 tomorrow, Saturday, to devour the fowl, the pièce de résistance, which will be accompanied by herbivoral and pescatarian delectables.

Daffy looks forward to seeing you, even though it may appear lifeless.
