  1. I found some lamb rib chops in the used meat section of the market. I
    grilled them.

    I minced some garlic and some fresh mint and fresh thyme and mixed
    them with salt, pepper, lemon juice and olive oil and a dash of
    cayenne. After Frenching the chops (love that verb), I rubbed the
    garlic/herb stuff on them and turned to other things.

    Other things included prepping some asparagus and an onion for
    grilling. I sliced the onion into thick slabs, oiled them, salted and
    peppered them, too. The asparagus just got some oil and salt.

    Other other things included making a vinaigrette from the juice of a
    tangerine and half a lemon along with some French Dijon mustard, some
    minced mint and jalapeno, and opening a bag of prepared salad greens.

    First I grilled the onions. Got them caramelized, but still firm
    enough to get most of them off the grill and onto a plate. Then I
    grilled the asparagus on a grill topper. Then I toasted some pecan
    halves on the same topper.

    These all went onto the salad greens and got a dose of the
    vinaigrette.

    Next came the lamb. I set them on the grill and popped a beer. After
    a couple of turns, they were medium rare and ready to plate on the
    salad.

    Taste sensation.

    Used meat? Sounds a little uncivilized.

    This was the only part that sounded appetizing.

    That lamb sounds great--other than the "used" part, of course.

    To French a lamb rib chop is to cut away the meat and fat around the
    bone leaving a lamb chop "lollypop" for cooking.

    Meaning, take off the most flavorful part and leave nothing to knaw
    on the bone.

    Really? I thought it was just French kissing. [censored] that I am, here I
    thought I knew everything, LOL...

    More a Brit term I think...prostitutes in London, etc. used to (and maybe
    still do) place ads for "French lessons"...

    In the 1973 movie _A Touch Of Class_ the romantic characters (Glenda
    Jackson, George Segal) rent a London flat, one of their neighbors is a
    prostitute named "Dora French"...

    "Riding lessons" were for S&M play...

    You're thinking of a French half and half.

    OBFood: Half and half.

    OBSex: Mango scent.

    OBChops: D and I got some cut from a pork loin yesterday at a nice
    little butcher shop in Sulphur Springs, TX. Gonna grill them tonight.
    I'm thinking something curried to go with a jalapeno dressing I
    concocted for last night's salad.
