Youngest daughter turned 9 today. She requested steak bites, Alfredo noodles, and cheesey green beans, so that's what we had. With red velvet cupcakes and birthday cake ice cream for dessert.

 

[Wally_Hood]

Chipotle; no. 1 son said he'd buy if we'd fly.

 

[Gregg Axley]

Steak and homemade sweet potato fries (to avoid sugar like many frozen store bought brands have).

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Pork Fried Rice!

 

[vintageTink]

There is one just down the street here. You flew over me getting to San Jose.

I fly back tomorrow. I'll be sure to wave hello from the plane.

Pineapple Smash? Where do you find demitasse? Then again, I have never looked for it....

Do you by Chance mean Tapatico? I have a huge bottle of it in the fridge. Now there's a "vintage" term as in Frigidaire. Earl

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Left over potroast..big buttered baked potato...corn on the cob...and iced tea.

Pineapple Smash is made of crushed Pineapple, lemon or lime juice (I prefer lime) Mint leaves (some "moderns" use cilantro) and simple syrup. Refrigerate in the ice-cube trays until slushy, serve in Iced Tea glasses garnished with mint leaves. I'm told that some "fast" folks add synthetic Gin or Rum to the mixture. I have no doubt that this addition would be pleasant, but mine is strictly the Temperance version.

Demitasse is but strong coffee served in an half-sized cup. Just enough to revive flagging energies after supper, but not enough to interfere too much with bed-time. Unless one drinks three, as did I this evening.

I would use some J. Wray and Nephew Overproof Rum if it were me.

I know what Demitasse is but I was curious what brand you used and where you got it.

I simply use the coffee that I keep in my old Arcade "Crystal" grinder (Van Rooy Coffee Company's famous Hotel Blend, one of the few surviving commercially produced blends in the American 1920's style, very different from the flabby post-war "American Coffee") but brew it up STRONG, using 1/4 cup coffee and a dash of cardamom to 3/4 cup water in the Silex. I take mine with a twist of lemon, but the Better Half prefers cream and sugar.

Interesting. That is about how I make my regular coffee---cream and sugar for me too. lol lol No wonder my friend referred to my coffee as embalming fluid.

And some people like a little coffee in their cream and sugar.
