OK, it's Friday night. What's for dinner, DU?

I can't decide: That little storefront Chinese place? The cool little grill and lemonade place a couple of doors down from it? The nifty little Italian place downtown run by a guy from a little island just off the coast of Naples? Subway?

... the "Meet Yourself Folklife Festival" (Oct 11, 12 & 13 this year -- do your best
not to miss it).
.
There were fantastic international food offerings from all around the planet -- but
that onion naan bread is the only thing I went back for seconds of.

I love TJ's but didn't think to look for frozen Naan or anything. Will have to drop by today and get some.

Thanks!

grandkids? You so don't look old enough to have grandkids. I almost choked on my gingerale reading that.

Maybe pre-teens, but not grandkids! I want whatever you're drinking.

30. I'm not really old enough to have grandkids.

They're all steps.

My wife is eight years older than me, and had three teenagers when we met. Six months after our wedding, her 17 year-old daughter got pregnant.

I became a 'grandfather' at 30. I now have eight grandkids among my three step-kids. If you told any of my grandkids that there was no biological relationship between me and them, they wouldn't care in the least. I'm Grandpa.

because I had a most delicious hamburger for lunch: grass-fed beef on homemade focaccia bread, topped with melted Gruyere, sliced red onion, arugula and dijon mustard.

Center cut ham steak, baked beans, sweet potato, slaw.
Yeast rolls and red eye gravy to dip 'em in.

Funny, I have a friend who refuses to eat leftovers.
I love them.
Nobody has to cook and it's just as good as last night.

Beer and something to soak it up.
That's all I know.

(if I lived wherever you are, I would do the Italian place...)

Edited twice, because of beer!
