An entire block of it too.
Went to McD's & Tried Al's little trick today.
It works!
Order McDouble off $1 menu
Minus Ketchup & Mustard
Add Lettuce
Add Mac Sauce
You got yourself a Big Mac (minus the 3rd piece of bread in the middle)
I shoved 4 of those $1 "Big Macs" into my gaping maw & washed it down with a Diet Coke. (Which I snuck in) Al is cool. Total cost = $4.34
You should have had a Shamrock Shake Boris, or would that cherry they put on top given you an over allowance of fiber in your diet?

I hate airlines. First of all those darn airline seats are too dang small. Who are they designed for, skinny guys like John Goodman?! I'm a grown rambling man!
Also they've scaled back on the in-flight meals, really?! I get pretty gosh darn hungry rambling & hacking & wheezing my way through security! By golly I need... check that... DESERVE a burger when I get seated... well kinda seated...

I say it's a good start, but I could cut more without even making an effort.

I met the letter carrier at the box. She told me the roads are plowed, but crappy
Not sure if this one belongs in the food thread or romance. I'm leaning towards romance. Tough call.

Sliced vine ripe tomatoes:
4 vine ripe tomatoes
Kosher salt
Fresh cracked pepper
Slice tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Serve.
Actual recipe I just came across.
I think the internet just hit rock bottom
No lemon cake mix or deep-fried lard = crappy recipe.
Vegetables are for commies anyway. You know they grow those in France, right?
All I could find was a fruit wearing a beret, is that redundant?
That strawberry got greased on the first day. Muricans down here thought it was a Mooslim turban. The turban all the Mooslims wear, concealing their head bombs.

The funny thing about the war on fats is that many feel carbs are far worse for you, for a plethora of reasons.
And, for whatever reason, the nanny state pushes carbs on the public like old sitcoms give coffee to drunks...neither one works, by the way.
Nanny State always pushing carbs on me. I swear I can't go 15 minutes without some government thug sticking a funnel down my gullet for forcing me to eat pounds and pounds of pasta and bread.

Double yolks are very common, though I have never cracked one myself. However, an egg in an egg? Looks like science fiction.
Turns out the egg in an egg is from a Chicken in China. Not sure why anyone would want a 3rd world malaria omelette.

Just made a batch of low carb muffins. I had a couple, and they are far from "normal," but they're pretty darn good, probably the texture of something cowboys used to eat on the range.
I decided to have one with a sausage patty in a sandwich, so I opened up the microwave...only to find the butter I had softened still in there. I have to imagine with that in there, they'd be outstanding.
I like to go to McDonald's and order a Big Mac, a double QPer with cheese and two orders of fries. It's OK, though, as I have a Diet Coke with it because it's healthy.
Just as long as the super sized drink doesn't surpass the fluid ounce limit it's all good.
When you start finding finding butter that you forgot to eat laying around the kitchen, you're either eating too much butter, not making low cab muffins fast enough, or running low on sausage patties.
As a defender of and a believer in freedom, Al would never live in some Commie ****hole where they regulated the amount of crap you can consume. Al and I believe that you should have all the freedom in the world to be a disgusting fat **** and to eat whatever garbage you want.
Now excuse me - I have some women to go fall on.

Why stop there? Add 8 slices of cheese and a couple of fried eggs. And some Big Mac sauce. And gravy. Lots of gravy. Al likes gravy. Throw on some 2 yr old Boo Berry on top as a garnish and you're good to go.
What pisses Al off though is the natural skinny people don't have to worry about that delicacy.
Who knew canned pie filling was also butthole spackle...
This may have something to do with his falling down problem as well.

Heck, I often go all day without using the restroom if I'm working, though I shouldn't.

I must admit that Al has broadened his spectrum of topics since the days of basically just Brewer talk... 
The guy thinks a big mac is nutritious. Shame he can't shed those last few pounds while bullies like Doc Oz tell him to get off his ass.
Compared to some of his other homeade lard concoctions the Big Mac probably seems nutritious

Thank goodness I got to see another how-to post on diet. My cholesterol was starting to drop to below dangerous levels.
So if I have some well-aged Boo Berry for breakfast with a low-carb sausage and cheese biscuit tray, any or all of the above for lunch and then head out to Golden Corral for dinner, it'll be the perfect food day.

Quite a weekend in the Ramblings household...the Rambling wife is off on her annual bell choir festival, which leaves the Rambling males (me, the son, and the dog) for a bachelor weekend.
We're going to see The Croods, eat some Chinese buffet (just the lean protein for me, thanks), and enjoy some of Daddy's finest meal making (his favorites are my grilled cheese cheeseburgers, which is, yes, grilled cheese with a burger inside, and grilled cheese with steak um, and grilled cheese with bacon)...I just realized all my cooking ability is simply putting delicious red meat into grilled cheese.
My secret...don't skimp on the cheese. If you put so much in, the middle doesn't melt...microwave it for 15-30 seconds. Also, you can use mayo (even light mayo) instead of butter, it will be less greasy and oodles easier to spread.
Feel free to steal my ideas, they're just sandwiches.

There's nothing quite like getting your lean protein fix at the Chinese buffet. That and your yearly allotment of MSG, saturated fats, and burn all your clothing aromas.
Although, the good news for Al is they don't serve much cheese at the far east scarf and barf so he has plenty of time to balance things out with the old 6 layer griddle surprises at home.

China would be the greatest counrty in the world if they could figure out how to add cheese to General Tso Chicken
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight, Al... it's worth the buck to drive to WalMart. I'm sure it has nothing to do with all those hotties behind the counters.

We have been making shrimp scampi once a week of late, it goes with potatoes, pasta, or even cauliflower if you wish to avoid carbs. The Rambling wife stopped to pick some up last evening on her way home from church so she'd have it for today. It was "on sale" for $5.99, regular $8.99. Knowing it is $5 all the time at Wal Mart, she decided to pass, as is often the case when we stop at one our two little groceries within a mile or two of our house.
I don't feel sorry for those that avoid WM because they feel they are too successful and efficient (many days, I tell myself that's why I don't have more sales as well). I pity them for lacking the sense to maximize their income.
But, because I believe in freedom, people have every right to overspend on shrimp, and every other item in their cart.

considering the quality of products at wal mart is easily on par with everyone else out there, clearly those of you not buying everything there are morons.
Buy local? Moron.
And damn all of you *******s who think you are to successful and efficient to buy **** from al. Clearly if his sales are down, it is someone else's fault.

Cooked (BBQ'd) some organic chicken thighs (bone-in) Man they were tasty. Hope Al isn't upset I purchased bone-in chicken thighs

I feel sorry for people who tell me they are going camping, but that guy on the American Family ad who says he's "chasing this amazing dream" by visiting national parks makes me laugh every time.
It's like me trying to eat every flavor of blizzard at DQ. While I might think it's kind of cool, pretending it's an accomplishment is a stretch.
