Last night my wife came home around 9:30 and we talked for a bit. After a few minutes she said "do you know what day it is?" I had no clue, so being a smart-ass I said it's "come home smelling like onions and kiss me day?"

I was then told that is our anniversary. That's some I've never forgotten and I usually remember weeks in advance. If we weren't broke, I'd send her flowers today at work. I'll probably regret asking on this forum, but anyone have an idea on how to make up for this?
Watching the Hawks game tonight is must and money is an issue so going out to dinner is out too....

Get a new job that pays more.

Open up a pot shop, or at least, become a master grower. Just like liquor stores are everywhere, pot shops will be one day soon.

That $1M plus start up money just to get a state permit is tough to overcome. Maybe is we all chip in here?

Good idea, Grimson raised huge money for the taint punch tour or whatever it was.

Back when I was in college and would cook for my dates (wasn't making a ton of money and spent most of it on booze and partying) I would do a chicken parm with baked spaghetti and meat sauce.

Tater if you don't know how to make chicken parm from fresh ingredients go to the store and find the frozen chicken tenders (the big ones if you can get those. I used to get them from Costco, huge bag for cheap. Cook the tenders almost all the way, season and brown the ground beef and add tomato sauce to it. Again depending on your cooking skills a jar of the Prego/Ragu/Bertolli Sauce will do if you don't want to venture on making your own. Cook the pasta...Throw the pasta in a casserole dish with the chicken tenders, either put them off to the side so you can serve them separate or right on top. Cover the pasta and chicken with the meat sauce, top it with a cheese blend and bake it in the oven until the cheese has been melted with a nice color. And that's how you do a poor man's chicken parm. Grab a bottle of two buck Chuck and you will be on the fast track to the Hershey Highway.

Damn that's expensive. I suppose being in Colorado had its perks. Lots of guys didn't need that. Not regulated like it will be in future states I suppose.

....and your point is?

Maybe I missed what you were loling about?

Is it because I suggested he use chicken tenders? If so I never claimed it to be a five star meal or something that you would get dining out, although a lot of skeevy Italian restaurants do this claiming they are making fresh chicken parm.

Or is it because I assumed he didn't know how to make chicken parm from fresh ingredients? Believe it or not some people are not comfortable in the kitchen and cooking with fresh ingredients can be intimidating. For me I prefer fresh ingredients but that because I don't mind the prep.
