The 27% is, let alone without the bacon.

If you put a little bit of plain oatmeal in it they will stick together quite well without changing the flavor really.

Yeah, I don't use filler when making burgers, i usually make all-beef patties. I know its much more unhealthy, but they come out just so nice and juicy. Which is, of course, because of the fat.

I marinated a tritip over night in Cali red and salt. Then I cooked it today on the charcoal with the smoke valves closed.  Had some of that infamous teriyaki and some Mediterranean herb basted chicken, both of which were also cooked on the coals.  Homemade potato salad, beans and rice and corn on the cob rounded it out.

Had 1/4 watermelon for a fruit  and cherry pie with ice cream for a dessert.

In a rush and desperate I made the dreaded chicken and rice casserole.  It came out half-done and nasty.  We had ham sandwiches instead.

Chicken & Rice casserole is actually one of Ari's favorite Mormon recipes (and she comes from a non-Mormon background).

Is that the same recipe with cream of mushroom soup and shredded cheese?

no, this was a recipe I got from a friend who taught home economics at a high school.  It has cream of mushroom soup and onion soup mix.  When it turns out my husband likes it better than the other kind, but I seem to have some sort of mental block on this type of food.  I can make all sorts of complicated things and they turn out beautifully.  When I try to make one of the easiest of all it always turns out badly.

Your taste in food and music, lifestyle choices, etc.

I mean, Idaho doesn't have a reputation for being avant-garde, you know?

My mom made a delicious Gaiyang chicken the other night–it was nice and crispy and had a wonderful white vinegar (and other stuff) sauce to go with it. (There was also a very nice (plain) white rice also in accompaniment.)

I saw that the grocery store now carries Panda Express brand sauces, so I picked up the one they use for Orange Chicken. Tonight I rolled chicken chunks in corn starch and fried them up, then drained the oil and and added the sauce, cooking it for a bit longer to let the sauce cook into the chicken. The result tasted very much like Panda Express' Orange Chicken, but I liked mine better, for a number of reasons:

1) I got to use actual steamed Calrose rice. I usually prefer steamed to fried rice with Chinese food, but don't make the mistake of asking for it at Panda Express, as it's always inexplicably nasty.
2) I could put more sauce on. Panda never puts enough sauce on the chicken.
3) It was fresh; i.e., it hadn't been sitting out for an hour before I ate it.
