Dammit, I'm so new here I shouldn't even know what Marcie means, much less pulling one already.

Some severe family shit is coming to a head. I'm supposed to meet a plane tomorrow carrying a stroke victim (my brother) in a town about 60 miles away where he's being put up in a nursing home.

I got chicken out to thaw, but can't say I'll be here to prepare it. Got no idea how tomorrow's gonna pan out. Family politics is involved.

I hate saying I'm out, but it don't look good for the home team.

Hell, you guys got me beat already. Once I saw andouille in the thread, well, you know.....

Oh, heck yeah!! 
 
I'd say it's nothing I would have done unprompted.....but the beer, wine, beef, and dark chocolate really meld well together.
 
We should all have to taste each other's food.....;)
 
 
I'll mull over entering....but I'm feeling far out-classed......and that is a GOOD thing!! :clap:

Open a good bottle of wine, or just a box-o-whatever.
​Gently peel the foil off of a good bar of chili dark chocolate.
​Start "When Harry Met Sally" on Netflix.
 
Sip, nip, repeat.
