The misbegotten waif thread a/k/a The Fray

Wait what? I wasn't paying attention.

Good, it's probably best that way. Carry on, then.

For this thread it should be "What isn't for dinner?"
For me that would be Seafood of any sort.

Aww come on HM, aren't you just dying for some nice, rubbery octopus?

This is a slight improvement... but no tag rendering and that stupid tapatalk footer makes me a sad panda. Im going to change it to something awesome...

I thought that all pandas were constantly and annoyingly cheerful and bubbly? Oh, well....

That's only a front pandas use to lore you into a false sense of security.

is hagerstown on the coast HM?

No it is in a valley about 1.5 hrs west of Baltimore and 1 hr north of DC. When you step outside you can see mountains surrounding you in every direction.

So I grew up on corn on the cob, green beans & ham, and all that other farmer's food you hear about.

I have lived on coast and farm lands and dity all. I have found noth9ng wron with that corn on the cob, ham and beans you spoker of, but also of of fish and other seafoods. It is all reeeeely good. IMHO.

I've lived in Southern California all my life, so I've had the chance to get exposed to numerous cuisines (and it helps that my family likes to try different foods). As a result, I appreciate just about anything edible, within reason.

I'm happy going from sushi or sashimi to baby back ribs to Afghan kitchen-style cooked kebabs. And then lobster or crab or calamari. And I have a massive sweet tooth, to top things off. Yum.

Stop your making me hungry and I have posting to do. LOL

Fav foods are Mexican, Chinese, and Italian - in that order.

Then I have done my job.

Fav foods are Mexican, Chinese, and Italian - in that order.

I happen to have some very nice restaurants specializing in each of those cuisines within short drives. And my family can cook dishes from each of those styles. I'm lucky.

The best Mexican restaurant I know (and is in the area) has been in business for something like 40-50 years... And they're so good.

Most of my Italian food intake is from chain restaurants, but it's still good. It's better when my family actually cooks up a nice big pot of spaghetti. I swear it is a different sauce recipe used every time. And it always tastes great in the end.

The Chinese places in my area are pretty good, but I tend to prefer Japanese food.

And there's a really nice Indian spot, and a Persian (seriously, they call it Persian cuisine, not Middle-Eastern) restaurant. And a place specializing in Afghan food that's been run by the same little old lady (an immigrant from the Middle East) for more than 20 years.

Then, of course, there is In-N-Out, a wondrous phenomenon known best in SoCal and it's slowly creeping its way through the other states. Progress is slow, as the founding family still owns it and they will only use fresh supplies for their burgers, but it is advancing!

And there are several good cooks in my family. I cash in on my sweet tooth and make a few special desserts... Bananas Foster and Cherries Jubilee are my most-cooked ones. I've been spoiled on good food.
