Comments: Golf Day. This week I prepared and fixed something to eat. It worked. Not nearly as famished as I was last week. Stuck around for 30 minutes after the round. No beer (saving that for tonight). I just drank a diet coke. Wasn't so bad, but a BUD sure would have been good.

Ok, I did get my bud in. It's sad when the highlight of my week is sitting down to a single Beer! Oh, well. Whatever floats your boat.

I cooked tonight and I must say, I did a very good job. I cooked an oven roaster chicken. Had planned on cooking it indirectly on the gas grill outside but 40 mph winds made that an 'iffy' proposition. I soaked the chicken overnight in a brine solution (1 cup salt/1 gallon water). Then, 2 hours before cooking, I took it out, drained it well, dried it, then coated it with a mixture of veg oil/chicken herbs rub/vinegar. It was very juicy and tasty as well. Sides were wild rice and asparagus. I did a good job on keeping the portions reasonable. Saving room for dessert. We are having ice cream cake!!!!!!!!!!
