Haines His Way

I was 23 and in love and performing and getting paid for it.

There are so unkind names for getting paid while performming love.

Jennifer when I was growing up we had an indoor grill in our dining room.  It was great.  I often cooked chicken and never once pre-cooked it.  I don’t remember it taking very long-just turned it once in awhile until it was completely cooked.

Do you mean like a george foreman type grill? Or do you mean a real grill (bbq) like what people have outside?

Hmmm, i am much better at cooking than i used to be.  But i'm not sure i should just turn it once in a while, or it probably won't be cooked.  I like to have an idea about how long it should take.

And i do have a thermometer now. But it's not an expensive one.  But i guess it should still give me a good idea if the chicken is cooked.

For DR RonP or other Big Brother watchers. Here is what someone else had to say about jen's "appearance" on housecalls (the show marcellas and gretchen host on the internet):

Jenn was on the phone for maybe 10 minutes, and it was really lame. Marcellas and Gretchen took it very easy on her. They asked about the swearing on your life, and about the plan to backdoor Ivette. Jenn apparently is living in some dream world, because all of her answers completely contradict what we're all seeing on the live feeds.
After she hung up, M&G apologized to the viewers for going easy on Jenn. Their hands were tied since she's on the jury, and were not allowed to give her any information. Therefore, they couldn't call her on her lies, or tell her how much she's hated. For instance, Gretchen asked her several questions about cheerleading!

Marcellas then went on a hilarious rant about how she's the most disgusting player in BB history, has no morals, and probably doesn't even have a soul.

One more grill question (hopefully DRs Jose and S. Woody White will read this before i have to make dinner).  And anyone else can answer to!

When you cook on the bbq outside, do you keep the heat on high? And when should I not do this?

For some reason i always cook everything on high (which i guess is between 500-600F.  I sometimes put food on the high rack (not touching the grill). But i never turn one side of the grill down (i know i probably should do this, but i never have).

I shall now be on my way to luncheon.  I'll be back in a trice.

Just one more day and I'll be caught up! I must read Sunday and perhaps I will do that tonight. I must go to the grocery store after work to buy provisions. We are down to nothing in the house since we were away all weekend. I need vegetables and lettuce and milk and other foodstuffs!

I am about to call it a day here at the old FC. Day!

There, I said it.

Later, gaters.

Here is another shot of Walty with his dad.  Notice how Walty covers his entire torso.

Wow, Walty is a rather LARGE cat! How are he and Kilbot getting along now?

It was a built into the back side of the living room fireplace.  There was a curved built in bar dividing the BBQ from the dining table.  Beside good liquor lots of special goodies were kept in that bar such as our holiday fruitcakes and my father’s Mallomar’s.   We might help ourselves to one, but never ever were we to leave him without enough until market day.

When you cook on high does your food burn or get overcooked?  I think the result is where you should cook at.  We usually turn the grill down a little while cooking but each grill tends to be different.

I was going to ask that.  

I love the photo of Walty on the toilet.

Hmmm, DR Jane, no i don't think the food gets overcooked (unless i leave it on too long).  But i guess that is a good way to tell if i am cooking it too high. thanks.

The trick is letting Walty and Killbot know you are onto them.

When Dickens and Vickie seemed incurably antagonistic toward one another, I had to go out of town for the weekend and a co-worker who lived nearby came in to feed them.

Her report was that they were sharing food, playing and grooming one another.

When I got back in the house, they would have nothing to do with one another.  

I had to make some extreme efforts to include them both in some intensive cooing and petting and grooming to get them to drop their guards.

Argh! My lunch ended up lasting a good part of the afternoon, but I did get home in time to finish up with BROADWAY'S LOST TREASURES. ore about that later.

Thanks for the tips DR Jason.  The only reason i was thinking of pre-cooking is because i didn't want to spend an hour standing outside grilling.

I usually put the chicken on, and sit back with a beer or a glass of wine and occasionally check on the chicken. 30 minutes flies by pretty quickly and dinner is ready.
