Toyomafia - The Clubhouse. 151.880

Many memories of black and white television round here.

 

How about rotary telephones?

 

All good times.. kids these days don’t know what they are missing

 

But did you eat it?

that’s back when the crazy bread was so good. Now it taste like you are chewing on a sponge.

 

Those were a pain in the rear. By the time I got halfway through the number, I’d forget what I was dialing

 

I would have but there are no Little Caesar's around here.

 

Yep, a lot of zeros in the number you were calling sucked.

@Azblue are you ready for coldmageddon tomorrow? Cover your plants and your pipes……
And bring your animals inside.

 

Nice, can it come and go as it pleases in the shed?
My fish are going to be in slow motion tomorrow morning, partially why I took down the shade sail that is over them, let them get a few rays

 

Your the best!

 

Lil Sneezers was one of our accounts when I first started out doing commercial restaurant service. This is where I first learned that roaches love electricity; went to open a breaker panel and saw everything moving, slammed it and jumped back! I will also never forget the smell of a family of burnt/burning mice that made a home in a condenser I was changing a compressor on. I was also to young to realize it, but I was definitely being prayed upon by the older Lolitas that populated every store…..
One of our other accounts was Subway
NEVER GET ICE AT SUBWAY!!!!!!!

 

I don’t Fuhk with subway nor the sleazer anymore

 

I pretty much have to drip every faucet in the house - between the open crawl space and the fact that most of the pipes are on exterior walls, I can't take any chances.

 

I was gonna say, we used to call it "Little Sleazers" up in Northern Michigan. Must have been a state wide thing.

 

I don't know if I posted this recipe yet but I made Steak Fried Rice tonight. I also used Flank Steak instead of skirt, it's a great cut of beef that a lot of people don't seem to use. The picture doesn't do it justice (because I had already had 2 and a half servings before I took the pic and now I'm noticing it focused on the edge of the wok).

3 quarts water
1 ½ cups long-grain white rice
5 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon sriracha, plus extra for serving
1 (12-ounce) skirt steak, trimmed
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil, divided
4 scallions, white parts minced, green parts sliced thin on bias
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed

Bring water to boil in large saucepan over high heat. Add rice and cook, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through, about 12 minutes. Drain rice in fine-mesh strainer; set aside. Combine soy sauce, hoisin, and sriracha in bowl; set aside.

Cut steak with grain into 2-inch-wide pieces, then slice pieces thin against grain. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over high heat until just smoking. Add steak and 2 tablespoons soy sauce mixture to skillet and cook until steak is well browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer steak to bowl; set aside.

Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil, scallion whites, and garlic to now-empty skillet and cook until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Stir in rice and remaining soy sauce mixture. Cook, stirring often, until rice is sizzling and popping loudly, about 4 minutes. Push rice to 1 side of skillet. Pour eggs into empty side of skillet and cook until just set, about 1 minute. Stir eggs, steak, scallion greens, and peas and carrots into rice. Serve with extra sriracha.

 

Yumo!!!

 

Thanks! Just saved it to try

 

Where do you usually source your recipes? And are you the main cook in the house?
I really like some of “Hey Grill Hey” stuff, I usually follow most of it and then change a few things at the end

 

I’ve used the hey grill hey bacon wrapped jalapeño popper stuffed chicken recipe.
Having kids and a busy life, I turned it into a casserole for indoor winter cooking.

 

Oooo that sounds really good! I’m the only one who will eat jalapeños like that, or spicy stuff, old lady claims she’s a MexiCant

 

I have an app called "Paprika" that I use to clip recipes off of the net. It has an iPhone app with a grocery list thingy on it which is pretty cool and it'll sync with my computer, phone and Mrs. Bandito's phone so she can add to the shopping list. A LOT of my recipes come from Cooks Country/America's Test Kitchen. Getting tired of paying them to use their sites so I've started checking out Food Gawker and have found some pretty good stuff on there. Never heard of Hey Grill Hey - I'll have to check it out.

I'm the main cook unless it's Thanksgiving.

 

I've got a really good Chicken Alfredo Casserole recipe.

 

It's good stuff - try it with a flank steak and if you have a wok, it's much easier than doing it in a skillet (in my opinion).

 

It’s pretty good, and can be made without the jalapeños.
