We didn't have a game plan for dinner tonight, so I asked DH if I could try something new. He knows there is a new SB and what "something new" means! But, I don't think I am going to be able to try many of the main dishes at home. I am bummed since it's all I can do to wait for the new SB.
Our conversation went something like this:
ME: How about the Grilled Chicken Al Fresco?
DH: What's in it?
ME: (read the ingredients)
DH: That sounds a lot like the one we had before (he means the Creamy One pot pasta)
ME: Well, yes
DH: It has tomatoes
ME: You can pick them out
DH: Well, I'd rather have the one with more cheese and without the wine (meaning the One-Pot Pasta)
OK Next
ME: How about the Mexican Chicken Lasagna
DH: Ummm. Not really in the mood for Mexican
ME: Really? We watched the video of this one. Are you sure? I can use Green Sauce instead
DH: Not really interested
OK Next
ME: Sundried Tomato & Sausage Risotto
DH: What's with all the tomatoes? The first one had tomatoes
ME: You can pick them out
DH: No, I'm tired of picking things out of my food
OK Next
ME: Casbah Chicken & Couscous
DH: (silence)
ME: Nevermind
Next
ME: Sweet & Sour Pork & Pineapple Stir-Fry
DH: Are you serious? One word: Pineapple
OK Next
ME: CA Club Pizza
DH: What's on it?
ME: (read the ingredients)
DH: It has avocado
ME: What exactly is your problem with avacado? You eat sushi.
DH: Yes, I know it's in Sushi. But, well, it's Green.
ME: Really? That's your problem with it? I don't even know what to say to that.
So there we are. Obviously, he is a generally a meat & potatoes type of guy. I will just have to wait to make some of these at a show, I guess.
But, the kicker is, after he said he wasn't in the mood for Mexican - what do you think we had for dinner?? TACOS! ARGGHHH!
