Delicious but so much dairy!

And we wonder why Americans are generally unhealthy and have @$$e$ the size of China!

(ducks and runs).

Oh, I love the Lady!

Do you mean the one from "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil? Didn't even know she cooked!

Toggles:

There's a big difference between making something like that twice a year, eating a judicious serving each time, and plowing through stuff like that every single damn day at the nearest fast-food emporium.

I've seen pizzas that could put that mac 'n cheese in the shade for sheer lethality.

You could alway skip the eggs an add more butter, sour cream and cheese. Too much dairy indeed!

 

[a440]

Sounds Yummy!

I am a sucker for dairy.....and I try to limit it. Well....not really!

I have tasted some good Mac & Cheese over the years. One of the BEST is Steve Riley's!

Share Steve? Or family secret?

It is soooo goood!

Ever run into one of these people:

"I'll have two Big Macs, large fries, an apple pie and a Diet Coke."

 

[autowasherfreak]

Yes Ken from Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Want to see my candy?

I created another Facebook account under my drag name, and Lady Chablis was the 2nd or 3rd person who sent me a friends request, I was quite shocked since I'm not the well known except for here in the Quad Cities. She posted the recipe and I just had to try it.

I used to work with a gent who was well over 400 lbs (and about 6'4" tall).

I used to chuckle when I would see him microwave his lunch: Weight Watchers "Smart Ones" frozen entree. But it wouldn't be just one... usually two, along with something else to wash it down. Of course, he wasn't too pleased when I asked him: "What is the point of a diet entree if you're going to eat two? Why not just a regular, non-diet meal?"

 

[wringingwet]

I have seen

I have seen Lady Chablis perform in Savannah right after the book came out in 1995. I laughed so hard just reading the book I had to see this one perform. She had one of the most wonderful shows I have ever seen. I am so happy for her success. And believe me I am not a drag queen fan either

but if you have a chance to see her the show is great and she is mingles and talks to you after the show in the bar not all stuck up and stuff .. just fun

Show us your candy!

The lady Chablis. LUV her! Saw here perform in Georgie's Alibi in Ft, Lauderdale, Florida. She was fabulous!

Yes but the scariest part is the poisons the fake sugar substitues turn into in the body, and the way that high fructose corn syrup and the other fake sugars stimulate one's appetite. Hint: Drink water.

Also, dessert after a meal is a big no-no. Any sugar taken after a meal masks the body's feeling of "I'm full" and so the natural feed-back of how much (over what one needs) has been eaten is lost. Hint: Have an apple either before or after dinner; it is a nautal appetite suppressant.

Jim, in a former life I had a business in a very stuffy center that catered to very stuffy folks.

Each year the entire center would have a "market week" where all of the showrooms would have seminars and teas and such to promote the center and our businesses. Since our showroom was a bit more avant garde, my business partner and I decided we were going to have a drag show and I hired Chablis to be the emcee along with several other local perfomers to do the show.

I had met Chablis several times before and I had cautioned her that this audience was not the typical audience that attened the clubs. I asked her to "be a lady"..we both laughed.

Well as the story goes, the management got wind of the fact that our showroom was hosting a drag show during the market week and that the local media was all over this because it was right after the movie had been released. The management company was going crazy asking me to change the date and not to have the media come. They were so afraid that the media would associate the drag show with the Atlanta Decorative Arts Center (the stuffy, to the trade, mart). They should have been so lucky!

Well as the other showrooms had the seminars and teas, a drag show we had.....guys...we filled that room with every Buckhead (the Beverly Hills, Park Avenue, Worth Ave in Atlanta) matron. For that hour I bet there was not one person in the other showrooms. So picture the audience filled with Buckhead doyennes all shampooed and set...waiting for a drag show.

Chablis comes out and looks at this group and says....Girrrrrrrlllllllsss...I know ya'll think I am a black man up he'ah in a dress, no dahlins....I am really a rich, pregnant white woman bout to give birth in he'ah.....everyone rolled in the floor and the Atlanta Decorative Arts Center was never the same!

P.S. Now as I have seen "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" I realize that there is another drag show in town!

Sandy, I agree with you. Its not like you are going to eat this every week. Mac and Cheese has always been a lot of dairy, if you want it to taste right.

 

[danemodsandy]

Rayjay:

It absolutely amazes me what some people will put in their mouths (DOWN, Toggles, LOL!) on an everyday basis.

When did the little hamburgers of yesteryear, which were considered a treat to be consumed sparingly, morph into today's double-meat-triple-cheese supersize meals with two potatoes' worth of fries and a 22-ounce shake? And when did people decide that was a suitable lunch for a workday?

It's everywhere - everything is cheesed and topped with bacon and accompanied by enormous amounts of high-fructose corn syrup. It has gotten to the point where I wonder what today's kids would say if they were confronted with one of the school lunches I ate back in the early '60s - fish sticks, spinach, Spanish rice, apple crumble for dessert and a glass of milk. I seriously doubt that a kid would eat that today.

What was sort of funny about the whole school-lunch thing was that most of our moms worked extra-hard to give us nourishing dinners, because they thought the school lunches were "junk." So, when you got home, there was meat loaf, green beans, mashed potatoes, and a "sensible" dessert like Royal pudding or peach cobbler.

We never dreamed of such things as pizza with extra cheese rolled into the edges of the crust, or boneless fried chicken strips you could dunk into high-calorie sauces as a snack, or all-you-can-eat Chinese spareribs. You might get Italian five or six times a year - once in a restaurant, and the other times courtesy of Chef Boy-Ar-Dee. Really really rich food was for two times a year - Thanksgiving and Christmas.

People today have a wealth of food choices we never had. But a lot of us who grew up back in the day had waistlines, and many of us still do.

 

[jeffg]

The school lunches I remember (mid-60's to late 70's) weren't any better than they are today, in fact they were probably worse: tacos, greasy cheeseburgers, chili cheesedogs etc. And half the time, for dinner we'd turn around and eat at In 'N Out Burger or Jack In The Box.

Getting away with this kind of diet is one of the main privileges of youth. I had a size 28 waist from age 15 until I was 31. Now I eat 1/4 as much, but struggle to keep my waistline at 34.

 

[twintubdexter]

JeffG...

Oh you young people and your childhood memories. We never had tacos or chili dogs. We had spaghetti, glops of canned spinach and something new called Sloppy Joes. Lunch cost 25 cents and as a prank we would all bring pennies on a given day which meant the kids at the end of the line had about 5 minutes of their lunch period to eat. This was around 1958 or so. I wonder what lunch costs now?

 

[appnut]

Well for me growing up I pretty much took lunch, which was a cold-cut (bologna or olive loaf) or PB&J and a couple of cookies or something like that. Breakfast was ceral (corn flakes), oatmeal, and occassionally french toast. eggs & sausage were for the weekends. We'd get 1/2 side of beef at A&P a couple of times a year with lots of roasts, steaks, grilled patties (no buns) meatloaf, spaghetti, lasagna, smother steak, chicken of all ilks (not fried--that as for b-day), occassionally stew, and chili during the winter; stouffers spinach souffle (in the "nicer times") squash zucchinni, leseur peas, canned green beans, broccoli and caluiflower and lots of rice. Rarely potatoes, unless baked.
