I'd cook a big pot of beef casserole, with shallots, onions, mushrooms, red wine and fresh thyme from my garden!.
I'd serve it with creamy mash potatoes with butter and chopped chives and a huge bowl of green salad to accompany it!. Loads of crusty bread to mop up the juices, and a bottle of Shiraz or Cabernet!. Candles on, and the fire, and some lovely mellow music, possibly Jan Garbarek on saxophone!.
Then sleeeeeep!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Eggplant/chicken/veal Parmesan or chicken wings and sweat potato fries!. If you feel like going Asian, make a sushi dish with salmon and jasmine rice wrapped in seaweed!. Or go with the chicken and pineapple dish over rice!. Cook and dice chicken, when its finished add pineapples and soy sauce over a bed of rice!. It is good to be diverse in your dishes!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Chili Con Carne w/ cornbread! I offer cheese, slightly crushed Frito's, and sour cream to top the chili, or also have rice that the chili can be poured over!. For the cornbread, I always serve with creamed honey cinnamon butter!. A small garden salad before is always nice, as well as berry/peach fruit smoothies!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
