CHOKED!

OMG! It was hot daddy Tom's shining moment, and he blew it! For the "High Stakes Quickfire", the stakes were that the loser of the Quickfire would be sent home. And the nasty, fat, shrapnel-faced lezzie who can't boil water lost. TC fans everywhere cheered! And Tom tells her "Please pack you knives a LEAVE?!?!" Really?! Tom?! It's the classic catch phrase of the show, and you screwed it up?!
It's GO, you uber-hot, chrome-domed morsel! "Please pack your knives and GO!"

Never send a man to do a woman's job, Momma G always said!

I Want My Babyback,Babyback,Babyback- and more!

Tonight when I got home from work I came through the side garden instead of the garage, because we worked in Beaumont and RM drove, so she dropped me off in front. I smelled this wonderful Lemon Pledge® fragrance, and realized my brugmansia tree was in full bloom. I was coming from work and I had my camera in my bag, so I snapped this lovely photo.

As I began catching up on blogs, all the talk on Northwest Dan's blog about Applebees® and Olive Garden® made me hungry for Chili's® Baby Back Ribs®.

But I didn't want to go by myself, and I remembered I had some baby ribs in the freezer, so I lit the grill and they are smoking as we speak. Unfortunately, I realized I don't have any barbeque sauce until after I put them on, and I didn't want to go to the grocery, so I decided to improvise with an onion, some honey, some vinegar, the correct spices, and jar of Ragu®. It's white trash cooking at it's finest, and it looks and smells just like barbeque sauce now!

It should be done just in time for me to enjoy while I watch the season premiere of Top Chef, with my favorite celebuchef daddy, Tom Collichio.

Cheers! I'll let you know how it turns out!
