Diner

Tuesday, August 18, we watched Diner and made Meatloaf Sandwiches.

5 dudes in a Diner clinging to their youth. Steve Guttenburg, Daniel Stern, Mickey Rourke, Kevin Bacon, and Tim Daly play 5 friends that return their hangout at Christmas as they are dragging their feet over the crossroads to adulthood. Ah, typical boys: the playboy with a gambling problem, the groom-to-be with cold feet, the married friend stuck in a rut, and the nice guy who knocked a girl up who just doesn't like him. "If you don't have good dreams,... , you got nightmares." In the end, they all accept their lives and move forward-well, at least until next Christmas...

These meatloaf sandwiches were well worth the wait! We used bacon instead of pancetta, but the sauteed onions and grilled tomatoes are must-have toppings.

In attendance: Barb and Lindsey

Ratings: Movie = 3, Dinner = 4.5!
