Was just watching DDD on Food Network. They were making some crab cakes with a Singapore flavor. Yum.

We got take out from a local place. It was my wife’s choice on locale, so she went with a place with sangria to go. It was more expensive than the places we have been going lately, but it was pretty darn good. I had steak pizzaiola. Wife had chicken piccata. Kids had pizza and pasta. Also got some garlic rolls that were really good. 

Doing takeout tonight.  Wife's choice of course since it is Mother's Day weekend; I've suggested sushi but we'll see.

That looks good; never heard of "Detroit style," it looks kinda like what we called "Sicilian" back in NE PA.  Also, thanks for adding the pics of your meals, it is a nice touch.  :cheers:

The picture isn't Detroit style pizza just normal deep dish.

Detroit style is deep-dish pizza baked in steel square pans. You cook the sauce separately and place it on top after the pizza is done cooking.

I can see what we made yesterday looks like Sicilian. I don't have a picture of the detroit style pizza we made last week unfortunately.

We had some leftover chili I had in the freezer along with some Mac and cheese. Comfort food on a crappy day (we had snow squalls).

Movie night, I’m pushing for ET, the girly animation stuff is worn out, so it was pizza night. On a side note, I haven’t had a soda since this lockdown started, but I had a Coke. Holy shite is it sweet! Haven’t missed it.

On a similar note I bought a 6 pack of barq's a few weeks ago. I had half of one and dumped the rest. I used to love soda but it is awful now.

Weird how it happens. I wasn’t a huge soda drinker before, 1-2 a week,  but when this started I knew there would be less exercise and made some adjustments.  I don’t care if I ever have another one again

Interesting.  I used to drink 3-4 cans of diet pepsi per day, moved to matcha green tea months ago and haven't had any pepsi since.  Well, maybe once or twice back when we had restaurants and stuff.

Ended up doing Pei Wei (Asian) for takeout.  Surprised that the wife picked it since we had so much Asian food during the week, but I would eat it until I explode.  Had Mongolian shrimp, extra shrimp, with fried rice.  The extra shrimp provided leftovers for lunch tomorrow.  :cheers:

Steak fajitas - using the left over steak I grilled last night.

https://ibb.co/zSZzpFJ

Looks delicious.  :cheers:

We had filets, baked potato with butter and sour cream, sauteed mushrooms, and asparagus yesterday for Mom's day.  And some leftover cake -- I may have mentioned that our gym's trainer started selling homemade cakes during the pandemic, I think in part to ensure that we were fattening up and needed to return to the gym.  It worked, as we each gained close to 2 pounds.  I said to my wife this morning that I literally could have eaten 1/2 of the volume that we did and have felt satisfied.  Instead my stomach has felt like crap all day.

Anyway... wife is making drumsticks and thighs with a maple dijon garlic sauce, looked yummy in prep.  Also leftover veggies I presume.

Noice! My friends said all the open restaurants doing curbside were packed. My one buddy spent an hour to get KFC drive trough. 

I've lost a bunch of weight being home. We haven't eaten out since February and I'm running a lot. I've also started intermitted fasting which reminds me I need to start a thread about.

Chicken came out really tasty.  Only veggie was a caesar side salad.  Skipped the cake and ice cream.  Remarkably, I lost 2.4 pounds this morning.  🤪
