I had chili cheese tamales with pepperoncini and sour cream from Huey’s as my to-go snack tonight. Not many people know this but I do own a Crockpot. Is there a simple Crockpot recipe for tamale pie? That’s one of my favorite dishes ever. The only thing is, I don’t like to do much. If I ranked the top things I like to do, “much” would not be in the top 3. Let’s face it, “much” would not be in the top 1,256. But I would still like some tamale pie.
Downtown bistro Belle Diner will be closed for lunch beginning Monday, January 12. It will still be open for dinner Tue-Sat and Sat-Sun brunch.
The Blind Bear will begin a 6-week trivia tournament beginning next Wednesday. You have to come for all 6 weeks (unless you build up an insurmountable lead) but you can win significant prizes. Maybe not as big as their 16-week poker league which is 2 1/2 times long, but still significant. Charles calls trivia every Wednesday night at 8. Between rounds he announces how to beat the cover charge on Friday and Saturday nights.
Random TV thing I noticed tonight. On the American Home Shield commercial there is a redheaded woman probably in her mid 40s whose TV works but her heat doesn’t. She can’t change the channel because she has mittens on. Question: You remember the winter commercial from Wendy’s, about 10 years ago when Dave Thomas was still alive? People would be too cold to speak and Dave would interpret. Is that the woman who ordered a baked potato?
If you like the taste of Cheerios I have a beer recommendation for you.
I don’t do enough drunk posts. I need to do more. Off to bed.
