*****Freak's Friday Night before the UTC game, admittedly off topic thread

#31

A neighbor's kid goes to UTC. He came up early because of the water main break. She got him some of those $20 tickets.

I'll be watching on tv. No energy for any special menu. Too early anyway. Pizza rolls and pigs in a blanket, probably. Beer, and Wild Turkey on standby if necessary.

Following the low expectations theme, tonight's dinner will likely be a frozen pot pie.

Tip: Banquet frozen pot pies. Trust me. No need to spend $5 or $7 or whatever for a fancy Marie Callender or Stouffer's frozen pot pie. Banquet pot pies are $1, sometimes 88 cents with loyalty card if you catch them on sale.

Four minutes thirty seconds in the microwave and $1 pot pie Nirvana. Relatively healthy and nutritionally balanced, too. Their beef pot pies are pretty good for dinner, but chicken is better for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or really just all around. Actually, I think you could live on these things pretty cheaply.

(Don't fall for the giant Banquet "mega" pot pies. They are nowhere as good. The crust, gravy, and filling proportions are all out of whack. Better to just make two regular $1 Banquet pot pies.)

The Mrs. makes an outstanding chicken pot pie from scratch. But when you consider the expense of all the ingredients, the time and effort, and all the dirty dishes, the $1 Banquet pot pies are an incredible bargain.

Pro tip: remove the $1 Banquet pot pie from its magic microwave cooking bowl while still frozen. Spray a light coating of cooking oil in the bowl. (I use an olive oil mister.) Put the $1 Banquet pot pie back in the bowl and microwave as directed. Once done, it should flip over and out onto your plate fully intact. This is the perfect pot pie experience.

Anyway, what were we talking about?

Staying at home watching with family this week. Having some wings, nuts, chips, hopefully a coke.

I gots me a brand new gray Vols shirt I’ll be trying out.....not my cursed Smokey gray one. Can’t wait, a bad Vols day beats most good days.......except for all the tears and anger.

11 am start here - unsure of what to fix that early and then again next Sat -- hate these start times
I understand. Usually smoke all day. I'm going to make some finger foods. Jalopena popper dip, Buffalo chicken dip, and Hawaiian ham and cheese sliders. All are delicious! Grab some tortilla chips for those dips.

going to see my grandson tonight and might get extra penne and meatballs at the Rosatis nearby. The manager there always gives a Go Vols, when I pick up the order and says they have a restaurant in Knoxville

It is a good restaurant, we've been there a few times.

Coming in from Franklin I'm a Moc alum so will be wearing my #80 Terrell Owens UTC jersey and vol hat, section A visitor side for first time in my life, row 40?


Where are y'all parking at, I won't have time for vol walk, probably leaving at 6am Nashville time to get there at 1030? Anyone else like this?
Are you crawling?
