What's for Dinner?

[FlamingoEmporium]

I used to bring bottles of Jim Beam in my carryon all the time - years ago. Never had a problem. Can't remember if I ever packed it in a checked bag, though.

Yeah, now you can’t even bring nail clippers in carry on. (technically allowed but up to each agent) Who is going To hijack a plane with nail clippers ?

Oooh. My daughter in NY makes a mean chicken piccata. Going to see her in another month. I’ll have to put in an order.

All you seasoned travelers, how does wine do in a suitcase on a plane?

I've always just wrapped any bottles I was bringing back in a shirt or something, packed a layer of clothes, put the wrapped bottles in the center of everything and put more clothes on top. Never had an issue with anything breaking this way.

I have been to some wineries that sell just the thing you need, I bet the great God Amazon sells them as well. Think bottle-shaped bubblewrap, with a closure at the top. They are wonderful, if something bad happens and one breaks, it is contained and doesn't get all over everything. I recall they were around $2-4 / wrap.

I typed "wine bottle bubble wrap sleeve" into the great Amazon search engine, had a bunch to choose from.

Mmmm. Chicken Piccata served traditionally the way my grandmother taught me.

OK, I may not have heard of it before yesterday, but it is served to @Boatboy24's standards.

Delicious!



I'm not very good at following recipes. I spilled a touch of pinot grigio into the sauce. I regret nothing!

Par for the course. I spilled a bunch of Pinot Grigio into my gut last night.

At around 45 days on the wet aged bison steaks. Getting really tender, and some interesting flavours coming through, somewhere between apple hints and.. Genuinely Funky? Balsamic and tarragon mushrooms, onion, and pepper. Spicy garlic shimp, and taters..

Beautiful! You scored a 10 with me simply for demonstrating the proper use of cheese. The rest is just showing off.

A nice day for a cook, a little pulled pork to brighten up our Saturday. Beautiful day in south central PA, 70* and not a cloud in the sky.
