<p>Fresh oysters, peak summer tomato salad with goat cheese melted on a great bread, just caught salmon, baby spring lamb chops, several runny cheeses, homemade sorbet with a ton of different ripe berries, fine cookies.</p>
<p>I like oysters do you mean cooked or raw? Quilcene, Yamamoto, Walla walla or olympic? ( soaked in milk- dipped in egg and saltine cracker crumbs and fried)</p>
<p>But I was thinking if I had a “last meal” it wouldn’t be “caloric” if you know what I mean 
right now I am thinking- vanilla ice cream and fresh white peaches -
summer tomatoes are great too- but I live in Seattle so ours arent’ ripe quite yet.</p>
<p>H and I had this discussion once…I’d have turkey and stuffing etc…H would have pate and French wine and cheeses and pastries. When we asked S what he’d have, he shrugged and said “soup and grilled cheese”.</p>
<p>Some woman is going to get an easy husband someday…</p>
<p>Chocolate chip cookies, hot fudge sundaes, a box of Godiva chocolates, and a gallon of milk. (notice a common thread there?)</p>
<p>Liver.</p>
<p>Seriously.</p>
<p>I love the stuff.</p>
<p>Second choice is eggplant – either eggplant parmesan from an Italian restaurant or eggplant with garlic sauce from the Chinese takeout; it really doesn’t matter.</p>
<p>And if that doesn’t work out, I’ll settle for Kraft macaroni and cheese with salsa mixed in.</p>
<p>Obviously, I don’t shop or cook for others based on my own tastes in food.</p>
<p>How about we spice this up a bit? So you’re on death row, and tomorrow you’re going to get executed. You have an uncommonly sympathetic warden. You can have any meal WITH anybody you want, followed by a private overnight romantic encounter with that same person. I’m gonna have to go with eggplant parmasean, fried oysters, a Greek salad, homemade peach ice cream, & a bottle of decent red wine with Kate Beckinsale. If that’s not possible, then a Big Mac combo meal with Denise Milani.</p>
<p>Definately seafood-I love all kinds; shellfish, salmon, flounder, talapia, doesn’t matter. And chicken marsala. I also love any kind of Mediterranean food; Italian, Greek, etc. And peach cobbler (although I love blueberry and apple, too). Maybe some carrot cake. Definately an ice cold beer (not frozen, though–I hate it when it turns to slush).</p>
<p>I think I’d have prime rib rare, a baked potato as big as your fist with real butter, an ear of corn on the cob, fresh sourdough bread, and a bottle of a dry German red wine.
Dry red Germans are very hard to find here.</p>
<p>I have no idea, there are too many choices. I am drooling just thinking about it.</p>
<p>*****PLEASE NOTE, on this thread all meals will be made with the most fattening ingredients possible. All milk will be replaced with heavy cream when possible. The butter is European, you can see the calories! All cheese dishes are double cheese. Meat portions are prime, extra fat, cut in huge slabs. Fish is fried if you prefer. Ice cream products are super premium.</p>
<p>Would definately involve mounds of Malpeque oysters and some fresh Maine clams, bellies intact. Both deep fried, of course. A side of king crab. White pearl onions in cream sauce. Five or so pounds of egg & potato salad. Maybe just enough Diet Pepsi (flat, so the carbonation does add any air to the digestive track) to wash anything stuck down. A cheesecake, NY style.</p>
<p>So much for the appetizer.</p>
<p>Hand me a feather and it’s time start on the main course… somebody had rare prime rib?</p>
<p>If I going down, I’m going down happy. ;)</p>
<p>Can I have that pearl onion recipe?</p>
<p>Barbecued chinook salmon (made with a sesame lime marinade recipe I have), peas fresh from the garden, hot homemade bread, fresh Oregon strawberries, and chocolate cheesecake for dessert. ( or perhaps hot fudge sundae with whipped cream and a cherry on top–I’m flexible on dessert, as long as it has chocolate.)</p>
<p>Tuna Helper and peas.</p>
<p>Some man is going to get an easy wife someday…</p>
<p>Only one???</p>
<p>A hamburger and coffee shake from Cook’s Seafood (I’m following UCMary’s ‘fattening’ theme!)</p>
<p>Chicken Marsala, green peas, nan, and other yummy indian foods - mango lasse, chocolate chip cookies… marguerita. Not exactly a single-themed meal, but soooooo good! ;)</p>
<p>Sesame chicken dripping in that take-out sesame sauce, fried rice with that same sesame sauce, and a big pile of egg-rolls to be dipped in the sesame sauce. For dessert, forget the fortune cookie, it’s pecan pie.</p>
<p>I’ll have crab legs, scallops and jumbo shrimp and a lobster tail… all premium quality, of course. For dessert I think I’ll have some Banana’s Foster with french vanilla icecream. For my after-dinner drink I think I’ll have some Bailey’s on crushed ice. That should do it.</p>
<p>Marian, I love liver too (foie de veau with a balsamic reduction). That makes two of us in all of cyberspace.</p>
<p>As for last meal, it would depend on my mood and what I’d eaten lately. There are sooooooo many excellent last meals one could pick.</p>
<p>(1) EXOTIC: Indian food. Chicken Korma, lentils, cauliflower, anything. No dessert (indian desserts leave me cold). Tons of cold beer. And I would keep going till I had achieved death by naan.</p>
<p>(2) SUMMERY: Grilled lobster with drawn butter, skinny french fries, grilled asparagus & a warm multi-fruit cobbler (with almond paste in the topping) and MOUNDS of whipped cream. Okay, also vanilla ice cream.</p>
<p>(3) FRENCH: Steak tartare, more skinny french fries. Goat cheese broiled on croutons atop arugula. 5 assorted strong and fantastic cheeses with sliced pears. Chateau d’Yquem & and warm dense chocolate something with whipped cream.</p>
<p>(4) PMS A: An entire batch of raw tollhouse cookie dough with one galllon of milk. Actually I might cook the second half of it. Followed by Ben & Jerry’s Creme Brulee, one pint.</p>
<p>(5) PMS B: An entire bottle of bourbon and an immense bag of potato chips, or maybe tortilla chips & guacomole.</p>
<p>(6) CIVILIZED & LADYLIKE: A large frosty gin martini. Shrimp Louis in an avocado. Make that two. Another martini. Followed by cheesecake (my recipe).</p>
<p>(7) GROOVY: Sushi-- at Matsuhisa. All kinds of exotic combos, chef’s call, but for sure tuna sashimi and eel. Insane amounts of wasabi.</p>
