Its Friday so I'm off tomorrow, so perhaps:

BAKED RATTLESNAKE

1 rattlesnake carcass

1 cup half n half or milk

1/2 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced

2 limes, sliced thin

1 tsp. basil

1 tsp. pepper

1 tsp. rosemary

Cut snake into 3-inch sections and place in a large baking dish. Cover with cream or milk and add the mushrooms, limes, basil, pepper, and rosemary. Cover tightly.

Bake in 300 degree oven for 60-70 minutes or until done.

~or this afternoon gets rough and I'm too tired, then I just might take the easy route:

ROASTED RATTLESNAKE

Cut snake into 2 inch pieces. Place pieces on a skewer and roast over glowing coals, keeping the skewer constantly turning. When the meat quits sizzling, it is done.

and to wash it all down: RUM

.....now I be Hungry!!!!!

:D

Jenny decides to maybe skip the rattlesnake...too many in the drive at my old house.

I'll be eating those prawns and artichokes William gave me!

no rattles?

then how about tonight's dish:

Ingredients:

6 medium Shark Steaks, rinsed in cold water and patted dry

6 cloves Garlic, crushed

1/2 cup Lemon Juice

2 teaspoons Fresh Oregano, chopped

2 teaspoons Fresh parsley, chopped

1/2 teaspoon Fresh Dill

Ocean salt - to taste

Directions:

Rub steaks all over with garlic ( :( ) - and allow to set; meanwhile, combine lemon juice, oregano, parsley, dill, and ocean salt, brush generously over both sides of steaks and allow fish to absorb flavors while barbecue heats to hot.

Place fish on grill, brush top with marinade again and grill (5 minutes); turn steaks and brush with marinade and barbecue (4-5 minutes longer), or until fish is opaque through. Serve with salad of mix fresh greens an' favorite rum.

Aye, I catch me own rattlers an' me own mostly. Thar be a fine ship that sail out of San Diego for shark an' sometime I just settle fer the smaller ones taken off the pier, but fer mako ye need to go out farther. Rattlers are still abundant in the hills, they have started coming out early this year due to the weather.

Well there have been two nights in a row now that I haven't had to cook.

Saturday for me birthday, Dorian took me and the wee lad out to dinner. It was absolutely positively wonderful. An appetizer of spinach-avocado with tortilla chips, then one of their specials glazed chicken with sweet mashed potatoes and broccoli florets. Then for dessert a banana milk shake.

Then tonight, the family had dinner for me. Roast with mashed potatoes, mixed veggies, rolls, gravy and salad. Then for dessert a wonderful raspberry filled cake and chocolate, dark chocolate and vanilla ice cream.

Needless to say, me tummy is very well satisfied. :rolleyes:

"Cottage Roll"

Is that an obscure or obsolete term? I know it's definitely an old-fashioned type of food. (My Kiwi neighbour just looked at me blankly when I told him what I was cooking for dinner.) It's a brine-cured ham that you simmer in water instead of baking. It's really delicious, and probably my favourite type of ham.

Grilled fresh pineapple for garnish

Boiled red potatoes

Steamed zucchini

i didn't cook tonight

i went to brother bruno's and got italian takeout-

putanesca fettucini (mild) with salad and bread and butter.

one of the things about living by myself - i find it kinda pointless to cook for one person!

~snow :D

with faith, trust and pixiedust, everything is possible ;)

if it be tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

Cooking for just myself tonight. Mr. H. is going to his Royal Society meeting.

I'm making capellini with baby clams in tomato sauce. (Canned clams are very high in iron!)

And a salad.

Well, Monday it was homemade jaeger schnitzel with pan-fried potatoes and green beans, last night it was beef medallions with scalloepd potatoes and corn, but tonight is the night I hang out with the young man that I mentor so we'll probably wind up at Bennigans. That MIGHT break up the "meat and potatoes" regimen! :rolleyes:

Ground meat (from home-grown beef) burrittos, with grated pepper-jack cheese, lettuce, and tomatoes, topped off with sour cream and spicy salsa.

Ooo... that sounds tasty!

I went off Gosling's for awhile after over-imbibing on Captain Kidd cocktails one St. Paddy's Day (1 shot each Black Seal, dark creme de cacao, and cognac , shake with ice and strain into a large martini glass. Garnish with a chocolate-dipped cherry).

But I'll have to pick up a new bottle of Black Seal and try this ice tea concoction.

Hey, maybe I'll even brave another Captain Kidd cocktail now!

And now, back to our regularly scheduled COOKING thread...
