A food/cooking/eating thread

Trembling Eagle is on point.  I second the idea of a casserole or pasta thing.

edit:  Actually, I would make green chile with potatoes, because it is delicious and it is unlikely that Swedes have ever had it.  It can be made with pork and vegetarian.  I always push green chile to people; it's pretty rare outside of New Mexico and Colorado but is very very good.  (Or some posole.)

Thanks for the suggestions, guys!

I should add that the wedding takes place in Stockholm, and not in my hometown of Malmö. Which means taking a five-hour train ride there, which makes it difficult to prepare stuff. Also I might not even have a kitchen to work in once I get there. But I'll work something out!

I might just join forces with some other guys.

"Tim, you are such a dork!"

"Whatever, Clay. Whatever."

I mean: "WELCOME!"

[Julie]

I'm hungry.

Nothing like water filter message board spam to make you work up an appetite.

[Andy]

don't be so negative.  he hopes you will success, what more do you want from him?

[buffcoat]

I hate cooking, but I like eating.  Thanks to FedEx and freeze-drying technology, someone with a hatred of eating and a love of cooking can help me out, and I can help you out.

[Sarah]

You don't even need someone who hates eating, just someone who wants to cook far more than he or she is capable of eating.  In another lifetime, I would have qualified.

Do you like drinking? I designed a good drink last night:

1 shot Patron (or other silver tequila... I was celebrating)
3 shots Pineapple Juice
1/4 of a lime - squeeze it
shredded mint (optional)

Muddle all that together. Top with Sprite or seltzer. Drank.

[Andy]

better drink:

Dragonpiss.

One can of lemonade concentrate. 12 oz of tequila.  6 bud lights with lime.

I've never started the night with this drink and had the night end well. 

[erika]

That sounds barfy to me. Beer with "lime" tastes like beer with green pixie sticks in it.

[Bryan]

Why the scare quotes around "lime", Erika? Just what is it you're trying to suggest about Andy's recipe?

[erika]

Oh I thought he meant bud light with lime, as in the same thing as miller light with lime.

And therefore, it is "lime" with quotes because it's nasty radioactive-tasting lime flavoring and not real lime. I like my limes real.

I keep it real. If you're scared of my quotes too bad for you, sucker.

[Bryan]

I didn't even know anything like that existed. Yuck.

Come on brewers! Come on people of America! Use real limes - it's easy!
