Another simple meal tonight — a cheeseburger I cooked up myself. Nothing special!
DINNER 219: Monday, August 7, 2006
Very simple meal tonight — our friend Dave had given us some packets of “premium cheese sauce” he got from his office. Heeding Dave’s instructions to toss it only with elbow macaroni (it is, after all, formulated especially for elbow macaroni), I prepared a giant vat of mac-n-cheese and had some of it for dinner.

Appetizers included fried pickles; a sausage and cheese plate (which seems to be a Memphis tradition); and fried green tomatoes. The entrees were mostly barbecue — wet barbecue, which is more familiar to us than dry ‘cue. I had pulled pork with a half-slab of ribs, barbecued beans, and mustardy cole slaw. Everything was delicious!
