I'm having friends over for dinner this Saturday night

I had to google Reine de Saba cake. Sounds good and I love the combo of chocolate and raspberry sauce.

Might I suggest a side dish of Go Fuck Yourself?!

Impressive as always, but unless it's a tasting menu, it's very rich. I'd be full after the first course.

Pretentious prig,

I love the idea, but I served that last time they came over.

🤷‍♂️

Thanks, R4.

I will be sure to serve portions that are small enough so that people can eat everything.

I think you need to braise a few more things.

I know, R7. It's not intentional, but the pork, the carrots, and the cabbage will all be braised.

No matter. It will all be delicious.

Or, pizza for delivery and a 6-pack of beer. Homemade dump cake with ice cream for dessert. Group sex, afterwards, for activities and exercise to take off the extra poundage.

You just described FRIDAY night, R9.

^ you go Greg02116!

Thanks, R9/R11

He’ll never post pictures of the dishes he makes because none of this is real. It’s all performative theatre. He’ll also reply to this with some sort of excuse.

Then when she’s done, she’ll post racist and other bigoted vomit here on the DL.

Sounds great as always. Could I come sometime?

Also, what do you like your guest to bring? I assume you would blanche at the wine or a dessert. Flowers?

R14 Is that Greg? If so, he is hot!

R13 it’s because “Defacto” is as unappealing on the inside as she is on the outside. No friends. So this pig comes here and spews rightwing hate like any Breitbart zombie, then wants to chat and be friendly so pretends to be a German gay guy or cooking gay.

But as you can see from r16, it’s just a pathetic black hole of need.

Greg, what time should I be over Saturday night?

Also Greg, can I get in on the group sex Friday night?

I hate passive-aggressive control freaks, only partly because they don't know how to develop a menu for dinner.

One expects flakes of gold leaf on the pig shoulder. And a proper menu includes selected beverages throughout.

But that's not the point with DL pests, is it, or the misplaced barnacles oozing about such bilge.

This whole thread is a) pullet nose and b) people pointing out that it’s pullet nose.

Sounds delicious Greg, can you also let us know the wine pairings? Thanks!

OP, at what point are you serving Surprise Anal?

I need to know, so I can arrange my arrival time.

“Gougeres” always sounds to me like French for “boogers.”

Homemade cheese straws drew me in, I have only had the kind sold in the supermarket

Who cares

Why did Muriel cross out Gregs menu?

[quote]Why did Muriel cross out Gregs menu?

R27 because everyone is sick and tired of his obvious trolling. The people have spoken.

Thanks for your input. R13. I don’t care a bit what you believe, but I am serving this meal to friends on Saturday night. I would love to post pictures if you tell me how.

Really?

R14, give it a rest.

[quote] Sounds great as always. Could I come sometime? Also, what do you like your guest to bring? I assume you would blanche at the wine or a dessert. Flowers?

Thanks, R14. I have no expectations about what guests might bring. These guests, however, will bring wine for dinner and probably another gift or two. Last time they came they brought wine, a beautiful cookbook, and some kind of nice chocolates. The husband is a serious wine collector and keeps a collection of 4,000 bottles of wine someplace (not in their Cambridge condominium). He always brings wine because it’s a source of joy for him. He is the type who will never order wine in a restaurant because with the 300% markup on top of what would be extremely expensive wine, it’s just too much money.

I might add that they are spending the night.

I am happy with whatever guests bring.

Sorry — the above was meant for R15.

And that is not me at R14.

Not even close.

Fuck off, R17.

[quote] Greg, what time should I be over Saturday night?

Cocktails are at 7:00

Dinner is at 8:30

[quote] Also Greg, can I get in on the group sex Friday night?

You know what I always say:

The more, the merrier!

[quote] One expects flakes of gold leaf on the pig shoulder. And a proper menu includes selected beverages throughout.

There will be no gold leaf anywhere. It’s very tacky.

I can’t include the wines we’ll be drinking because the guests are bringing the wine from their collection.

I will happily share what wines we have with dinner when I report back on Sunday. I’ll also share photos if someone will tell me how

[quote] Homemade cheese straws drew me in, I have only had the kind sold in the supermarket

They are very good, Midwesterner. I make them using my spritz cookie press (large star disc).

He’s a shitty cook

[quote] Who cares[?]

Clearly some people do, R26.

Not everyone shares your lack of curiosity.

[quote] He’s a shitty cook

You must be right, R39.

[quote] because everyone is sick and tired of his obvious trolling. The people have spoken.

That’s hilarious, R28.

[quote]Thanks for your input. [R13]. I don’t care a bit what you believe, but I am serving this meal to friends on Saturday night. I would love to post pictures if you tell me how.

See link below, I look forward to seeing your pictures Sunday Morning whilst I read DL from the Terrace!

Greg, if it isn’t too much of an ask, write something like Greg2016 on a piece of paper and put it next to the food as you take a picture. That will stop the troll accusations dead in their tracks.

Prune juice enemas have done wonders for the bay back of late

The “bay back?”

WTF?

I’ll do my best.

Or just post about the beer places to eat in Pittsburgh if you’re an ugly rightwing piece of garbage.

^^^ best but beer probably works too

[quote] Or just post about the beer places to eat in Pittsburgh if you’re an ugly rightwing piece of garbage.

I’ve decided to stop criticizing R48. He clearly is suffering and likely is living with some type of mental illness. So I wish you peace, R48. I hope you begin to feel better about yourself.

[quote] ^^^ best but beer probably works too

No.

It doesn’t.

✔️Cheese straws — [bold] DONE [/bold]

Time to make the Reine de Saba cake.

Next: gnocchi

A couple of people asked what wine I was serving at last night’s dinner party. Here’s what we drank:

2000 Margaux—Château Martinens

2002 Domaine Brintet Mercurey La Perriére

Where are the pics, Greg?

Here

I decided to make spinach rather than the braised red cabbage with apples.

Did you prepare for the dinner by getting a nice chianti for the occasion?

No, R58. I served:

2000 Margaux—Château Martinens

2002 Domaine Brintet Mercurey La Perriére

OP, your dinner party was a flop.

I know.

What a shame.

Saturday night’s dinner was a huge success. The company was fun and the food was very tasty. On Sunday morning we had a breakfast casserole that I made on Saturday and just had to bake off. And I made some biscuits and fruit salad. A very nice weekend.

R13 can fuck right off. Performative theatre. Right.

More photos?

Where are all the people so eager for me to post photos of the dinner I hosted the other night?

[quote]I'm having friends over for dinner this Saturday night

The Datalounge condoles them.

Thank you, R66.

Funny how R13 has gone silent.

[quote]Where are all the people so eager for me to post photos of the dinner I hosted the other night?

I would love to see them. This is my first post in this thread. You might consider starting a whole new thread, one with your best picture in the OP.

I think it's lovely, Greg. Your friends should be flattered.

I like to entertain friends at home with Panera Bread!

Sorry Greg, but anyone could find a photo like that online. Unless you write your name next to it, you are not going to convince most of DL. For what it’s worth, I don’t think you are a troll.

Ah okay, R72

I took this.

Is there any lingering doubt about how I spent my Saturday night?

[quote] I think it's lovely, Greg. Your friends should be flattered.

Thank you, R70. They are the nicest people.

[quote]Is there any lingering doubt about how I spent my Saturday night?

No greg.

All of our doubts have been laid to rest by your relentless self promotion.

[quote] No greg. All of our doubts have been laid to rest by your relentless self promotion.—Are you happy now, you dominating bitch?

SO happy. Thank you, R77.

Glad your doubts have been laid to rest.

Am I happy now? Yes. I am very happy now.

Wait.

Did R77 call me a dominating bitch?

Your party was a dud, and I know bad parties.

Dear Miss Richards,

My party was anything but a dud.

The guests were charming.

The conversation was effervescent.

The wit was in abundance.

The alcohol was top drawer.

The food was delicious.

The host was sparkling.

It was an evening for the books.

R74

R82, was there ever a doubt in your mind?

Jesus Christ on a CRACKER. Your plumbing must take a real beating!!!!!

[quote] Your plumbing must take a real beating!!!!!

What makes you say that?

[quote] My party was anything but a dud.

R81 Ah, so if it was ANYTHING (except a dud) then it was awful.

That's right, R86, it was awful.

I hope I'll do better next time.

Greg, I didn't see this thread on the first go around. However, I am so impressed and what a glorious menu! Thank you for posting the pictures, as well.

Greg and his sock puppet "Tallulah" must have had Muriel delete the most recent thread exposing the truth about Greg.

r88

Oh no! R89 has figured me out!

Sigh.

Where is Dutchie?

Oh, Greg! Ignore these malignant trolls as social ignorance is infecting. Just look at the world, today! I so appreciate the picture of your Thanksgiving dinner and am in awe of the entire room. I do wish we could retire to a private abode, but alas only by blocking all the cretins would make it possible. Nevertheless, would you like to hear my thoughts about your dining room?

"Tallulah" = Greg Sock Puppet.

[quote] "Tallulah" = Greg Sock Puppet.

[bold] FALSE [/bold]

I have no sock puppets.

And Tallulah is Tallulah.
