Agent G Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 I'm lucky, I got a place just down the road that offers all the good stuff. Dogs and fries, tamales, beef you name it. I took MrsG and her mother as a test. Ma said she felt like she was home. Good enough. G
High octane Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 Portillo's hamburgers are good as well. That's been a favorite for my better half and I for awhile now. Of course we still like the beefs, dogs, fries, tamales, and all that "heart attack" food also.
Guest Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 We got more of that white junk coming Thursday and Friday! Will this winter never end??
High octane Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Sure it will, just give it time...................................................
Joe Handley Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Yup, I'm pretty sure we're finally done with it!
High octane Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Nice day today, but a little "windy" as I was on my deck spray painting. Only primer though, so no sweat.
Craig Irwin Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 A 30 degree low tonight with 40 MPH winds so the wind chill is way down there. It still can't stay above freezing here.
Joe Handley Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 It's still cold here too, I used to handle cold pretty well, but ever since that flu hit me a couple weeks ago, that's gone away. Can't wait for this freaking cold to go away!
High octane Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 I guess winter is takin' it's sweet azz time leavin' this year, and we just have to "deal with it."
Joe Handley Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 I'm patient to a fault, but after this winter, screw that!
Danno Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 You guys have convinced me ~ I'm gonna have to make a dozen trips to Portillo's so I can try everything!!
Joe Handley Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 You guys have convinced me ~ I'm gonna have to make a dozen trips to Portillo's so I can try everything!! Lol, only a dozen trips! That place is like that potato chip commercial, you can't stop after just one, or a dozen!
High octane Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 C'mon Joe, you're lettin' winter get to you? You can do better than that. I don't know how many times I've been to Portillo's, but its a LOT, and hopefully I'm not done yet.
Joe Handley Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Well, it was nearly 7:30am when I posted that, I was doing my best for the time of day.
crazyjim Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 You guys have convinced me ~ I'm gonna have to make a dozen trips to Portillo's so I can try everything!! You do that Danno and you'll end up on my most hated list. Oh man, I love their Italian beef and crinkle cut fries.
High octane Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 I should have a dozen more trips to Portillo's by the end of this September, then I'll have to work on the next dozen.
Joe Handley Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Lol, if that's the case, welcome to the list Danno!
Danno Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 You do that Danno and you'll end up on my most hated list. Oh man, I love their Italian beef and crinkle cut fries. Awww, c'mon! 'Most hated' list? Just because I can go to Portillo's? How 'bout I mail you a couple of fries? Will that make up for it?
Danno Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Lol, only a dozen trips! That place is like that potato chip commercial, you can't stop after just one, or a dozen! From perusing the menu, I have to agree it looks like you're right! We have two other "Chicago" hot dog joints and a "Windy City Burger" joint that I already love. Now I have to add Portillo's to the fast food rotation! Life's good.
crazyjim Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 BIG decision made today. Marcia went out to the store to buy some thinly sliced roast beef. Tonight for dinner I'm going to make my version of Italian beef with crinkle cut fries. See what you guys started?
High octane Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Jim, don't blame my dining habits for your dinner tonight. LOL!
Joe Handley Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 LOLOLOLOL, that just gave me a much needed laugh Jim!
