Dinner and a movie

rhodesign · September 2010

A little twist on the dinner and a question. Well I guess it's still a question, but whatevs.

What's for dinner?
What's a movie that you can watch over and over and never get tired of?

Tonight--tacos with homemade mexican rice and blackbeans. And I can watch Clueless endlessly and love it. Same with Coming to America and The Sandlot.

Go! (kinda p&r cuz I have to start cooking!)

Tonight its just grilled chicken breast and a little bit of Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce.

And if you haven't tried SBR BBQ sauce, I HIGHLY recommend it.

For the movie - Forrest Gump.

maratea · September 2010

Dinner was chicken wings and beer.

Movie: The Breakfast Club.

PS. Community and 30 Rock are back tonight! Yay!

Anysunrise · September 2010

Tuna sandwich. Lol.

V For Vendetta.

kd.joseph · September 2010

What's for dinner? Chicken stir fry
What's a movie that you can watch over and over and never get tired of? So many, Steel Magnolias, Color Purple, Where the Heart Is, Love Actually.....I could go on.

Under the Tuscan Sun.

H just ordered a shiitton of Chinese food, so I'm ready to chow down. But I'm having some serious TOM pains so I'm also sitting here feeling sorry for myself.

Movies: The NeverEnding Story, Dirty Dancing, Grease, pretty much any Disney movie.

DodgersBride · September 2010

Dinner- Chicken picata with oven roasted veggies with a side of brown rice.
Movies- 500 Days of Summer, Juno, The Sandlot, Grandma's Boy I could go on and on.

KD--great minds think alike

Dinner: Lemon Chicken Stir Fry and Fried Rice

Movie: So many. Teaching Film lets me watch my favs over and over. But, for a while in college, my roommates and I would stop everything for Steel Magnolias.

ETA: Ha! I just saw that KD put Steel Magnolias together. ::cue creepy music now::

Mine was based on necessity, my DH does all the cooking so I buy the frozen stir fry, real easy.

Oh and I forgot "Fried Green Tomatoes"

jelique7 · September 2010

Dinner is pasta with meat sauce from the cheesecake factory (i love leftovers)

some movies are; pineapple express, step brothers and I cant think of the rest.

rhodesign · September 2010

Oh I LOVE The Color Purple! I'm adding that to my list too!
I could really name a ton more, but my food awaits!

kd.joseph · September 2010

Enjoy Rho!

NatesGirl16 · September 2010

The Color Purple is one of the few movies that I actually loved more than the book. And I LOVED the book. I fought so hard to have it added to our curriculum, but it never passed.

I've watched this movie a hundred times, and I still bawl like a baby, every time.

sarah0725 · September 2010

We had chickenn kievs from the freezer, my own personal recipe for baked steak fries, and A LOT OF ALCOMOHOL.

Movies include Love Actually, Almost Famous, the Big Lebowski, all of the movies that the Marx Brothers made, What's Eating Gilbert Grape... and a lot of others. We merged our DVD collection yesterday into one place and it turns out we have about 400.

I don't think of it as bad. I think of it as awesome. And we had only two duplicates, which is kind of amazing. And they were Jarhead and Saved... not sure what that says about us.

I didn't mean it that way. I actually have them in categories, and the VHS and categorized/alphabetized on a spreadsheet.

I do think it's amazing that out of all those you only had 2 duplicates. So I take it you're finally moved in?

rhodesign · September 2010

People marvel at our (mainly his) dvd collection when they come over. The only thing he has more of are CDs--probably 1500 he guesses.

Tacos were excellent! I went old school and used the old el paso hard shells, but it was with grassfed organic ground sirloin and lovely spices. I think I outdid myself!

Steph0871 · September 2010

Dinner- weird rice and hamburger combo with some salsa (we had cooked rice and hamburger for a sick puppy... that's right, I had dog leftovers.)

Movies? Any Disney movie, Pretty Woman, Christmas Story, anything that's on TBS.

Mostly! Almost all of the major furniture is where it belongs, and I only have maybe six or seven more boxes to unpack. We have to do something about the fact that all of our flat surfaces are currently covered with random possessions, but we'll get there.

rhodesign · September 2010

OMGHOWCOULDIFORGET! High Fidelity! It's only like my most favorite movie evah!

oh and I LOVE A Christmas Story! It's my holiday tradition!

JennaV26 · September 2010

Cream cheese chicken enchiladas and steamed rice... and some Chips Ahoy!

There are so many movies, let's see: Also Clueless, Twister, Office Space, The Devil Wears Prada, Deja Vu, Hitch... I'm sure there are many more!

katiewhompus · September 2010

H abandoned me tonight (got home from work and he was at his moms, didn't get home until 9:30) so I went out to dinner with my parents. Yummy Thai food for me. And I got to drive my mom's new SUV which was really fun

I could watch Moulin Rouge forever, Shrek 1 and 2

sarah0725 · September 2010

High Fidelity is quality. I like when he talks about the tops five things he misses about her, and he mentions how she rubs her feet together when she can't sleep.

Steph0871 · September 2010

oh... and dessert is now red wine and chocolate covered peanuts.

staceytaylor0704 · September 2010

I made scrambled eggs and organic maple sausage, YUM. I needed that after my workout.

Movie.. hmm, thats difficult. Zombieland? I loved that movie..friggin hilarious

Yeah I've been here 2 years now we're still dealing with me moving in. By the time I get it done we'l probably move.

Rho- Those tacos sound delish!

sarah0725 · September 2010

FI just got up and said, "I should play darts!" I'm not sure if this is a good idea.

That part is so incredibly sweet! "And she has the best laugh of all time, she laughs with her entire body"

I hate romantic comedies, but that's the one I love. That and The Truth About Cats and Dogs.

The thing is that a lot of romcoms are poorly written. But sometimes, they surprise you.
