My previous indoor grill (a George foreman thingy, but it was better) broke awhile back so I purchased a Breville "Indoor BBQ" http://www.brevilleusa.com/products/800grx...=11&pvID=11

I must admit it cooks extremely fast and it is a well built unit!! I bought it at Bed Bath & Beyond, so it was on sale, Plus I had 20% Rebate card AND they had a $30 mail in rebate! So was a very good deal!! Only downside is that the grill is hard to clean!! Yes the top/bottom do easily snap out, and they can be put in dishwasher , but since the indentations of the grill are soo close, doesn't always come out clean, and a bit hard to hand wash.As wel lit has no timer, but thats minor, as I just use the one on the oven or microwave! But as stated earlier, cooks extremely quick and well made!

So, I'm making pork chops on the grill, and wil microwave a potato!! Better half doesn't return till next Friday, so just have to worry about myself!! lol

Hey that does look good flames, I have been thinking about purchasing one of those.

On another note we decided to buy an electric frying pan a couple of months ago - due to the limitations of the very old stove, wanted more uniform heating - anyhoo, that lasted about 5 weeks, started sticking, ended up throwing it in the garbage, not a cheap cheap one either, think it was about $50.

I think it is far superior to the George Foreman models! They just dont feel like they are well made. I'm glad I purchased it and would recommend it! As well it does get a bit smoky, but no different that any other indoor grill. And after all my rebates, was just slightly more than the Foreman Grill!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

I decided this thread needs some pictures, so I took a picture of dinner last night. I don't think it turned out all that well, but I took the picture so I am posting it!

The rib eye was good because of the spices, I bought the steaks in a pack of 6 from m n m meats and they were all disappointing in flavor - last ones I bought were good.

Is no one eating dinner this evening? I have no idea what we're having and I need some hints. post-21394-1203712960.gif

My hint is that you should order something in!

I just said to my Husband - what should we have for dinner, that we can order in, that is low in fat but isn't a salad.

He said "I don't know".

I don't know either. :blink:

Just thinking - I could have some more no-cheese pizza I guess.

I thought of pizza, but that didn't turn me on. The chinese food sux the bigween here, so that's out. Then I thought that maybe I could get him to pick something up from the local Mexican restaurant on his way home because he likes that. I am not a big fan of Mexican food but I am just starting to like it a teeny weeny bit.... as long as I don't get given big piles of mushy things. And then I thought well maybe some chicken strips and shrimp rolls, cause they're pretty easy, but more like snacks than dinner food so.... post-21394-1203714850.gif I dunno.

hubby has been clamouring to go to our favourite Chinese buffet for awhile now.. maybe I will give in and say we can go tonight... I know we shouldn't spend money and I have plenty of food at home but I just don't feel like cooking.. besides I was busy with other stuff today and I didn't take anything out.... :P

I have no clue either, I should be cooking chicken breasts that I defrosted, but I had a hell day at work and really have no energy so ........ a burger is sounding good to me. The only problem is, it is snowing and apparently the roads suck (haven't left my office yet), so the dining out options in our small town are so limited.
