So I'm taking a quick timeout for a cup of tea(it's a might bit chilly here today).I've got my 10 lbs of ground beef browning on the stove in a large pot to make into taco meat and in another pot 10lb of chicken chests poaching with saute'd onion,tomotillos and cumin to shredd up latter. Then there is the fruit to slice, veggies to chop etc, etc. Ok gotta go!
Had to comment on the term "chicken chests"...haven't heard that since I met a cute Dane while vacationing in Barbados some 15 years ago! We call them "breasts" here in po-dunk New York! (Snicker, snicker)
Congrats on the contract NWo
Thanks RN - That was a pretty awful time - the longest period of no income since I left college at 17.......
Congratulations NWoBHM, i'm chuffed for you, I can imagine (granted it's not the ideal gig) how much of a relief it is. I finally get to start work on june 20th too and yeah, it's not my ideal job but the pay cheque will be very welcome!
Whoosh..... Congrats to NWo! I've got some taco fixings left so I've put the things that need to be kept cold in the fridge. Everyone help yourselves. I've got some fresh fruit( watermelon, pineapple, raspberries, blackberries and cherries), shredded chicken(sorry all the kids ate the taco ground beef) with all kinds of fixings to have with( hard corn shells, soft flour shells, shredded cheese, sour cream, cilantro, tomatoes, mild chilies, lettuce, guacamole, refried beans, black beans, rice, lettuce, lime wedges, pico de gallo, salsa, nacho cheese, and pickled jalapenos slices). I'm just in for a diet coke tonight and sharing the leftovers
.
Oh that sounds delicious!
I think my husby might be willing to share his tequila with the group.
Sounds great 2Beers...but I'll just have a cup of chamomille tea. I've been doing paperwork most of the weekend.
Now back to "work" tomorrow!
Way to go NWo. Happy for you mate!
NW, when do you start this new adventure/gig?
I am meeting the client Wednesday down in London, and then probably kick off Monday down in Exeter (near the National Park where Brutus was with Bubba the other day) for a few months, so it will be leave Monday am back Friday pm - a bit like being a musician on tour, but far less fun
- I really wish I made my money from music, but this gig will hopefully finance another album, which would be great fun. Hugh has mentioned not only doing the art direction and photography on a next one, but also guest appearing on keys.....I would be so happy for that.
