Apartment #1034 Weekly Din-Din Thread

[Ugly Bastard]

For those of you not aware, Orgazmo, tonguegina, f3lix, and myself share an apartment in Muncie, Indiana. In this apartment we have the tradition of taking turns preparing a weekly meal for the rest of the group. This thread will be used to track the meals that are prepared, as well as the ratings given by the other members of the apartment to the preparer's meal.

I will simply update this post each week with the new meal. Note that the appetizers, beverages, and desserts are not necessarily required.
