You can get the kind of buffalo wings that are drumsticks. I know this as they're the only kind one of my coworkers will eat lol.
MsA: ooooh is it one of these?? 
That's the kind I have. Oddly enough I got it for my birthday one year (edit: because I'm a kitchen geek like my grandmother) XD works AWESOME.

Yup that's it.. am happy for so many recipes( plus the new baby food recipes I got include some with zest...yes I will be making all Johnny's baby food I do not believe in giving babies yuck in a jar)
That way when I make stroganoff tonight( and I mean real stroganoff with beef tenderloin in sherry and shallott reduction with a tiny bit of sour cream to thicken not ground beef with globs of sour cream over egg noodles) I can make rosemary lemon potatos to go with and not have to try and zest on a grate.. YAY
I do feel badly that I only had time to make regular bread this week so it'll have to do. If I'd had time I'd make some nice french bread to go with.

Hehe. You guys are great.
I can handle the not liking marinara and alfredo. It hurts my heart to hear it but its okay. Roxy and I actually both make the same type of saue for our pasta. Its just a little butter and chopped garlic (sauteed of course). Easy peasy and fast.
The not liking pasta thing is hard for me to imagine. I think I could eat pasta every day and ever get sick of it.
But rugbug is my fellow ranch pizza person! So I'm in your corner!
I'm def a salt person. As opposed to a sweet tooth I have a salt tooth. Chips, pretzles, dips It's all good!
I can't wait to try the recipe! Thank you!!
This was a bit all over the place... sorry for that. Welcome to my brainzzz!

Love me some pesto. 'Cept I won't eat it too often because of the oil content. And really, I don't like pasta so there's not much reason. I figure it I don't like something that's not all the great for me, I'm not going to keep trying to eat it. :D
Also, I don't cook. My oven has been on two times in 4 years. My stove? Maybe 10 times. :D Not that I can't cook. It's just a waste of time to me...and it leads to dishes. I HATE dishes.
FLTx: I should've said "normal sized" drumsticks. I don't get the mini-ness of buffalo wings. That's what makes them a pain.
Avery: thanks for the Ranch-bye. I won't abuse it. Besides...more pasta for you!

Me too! Sweets just go to waste when their around my place. For instance I always buy candy on halloween just in case some kids decide to trick or treat at the apartments. I've yet to get a single trick or treater :-( So, I still have a half bag of mini-snickers from Halloween 08 in my desk at work. I have a few twix and a bunch of milky ways left from Halloween 09. That's how little sweets interest me.
RugBug, you need to stop talking about your food habits. You're like double dead to me now. How can you not cook for yourself? It's usually healthier, cheaper and you can make stuff however you like it. It's so rare for me to actually go to a restaurant it's kinda scary. I don't even see much time convenience in restaurants unless I'm already out and they're on my way home or they deliver.

Don't worry, hon. I'll let you cook for me.
I just don't eat "meals". For example:
Today was:
Breakfast:
String Cheese
Tangerine
4 crackers with Peanut Butter
Water (blech)
Lunch:
Sandwich from my friend's lunch program (todays is turkey, provolone with lettuce and tomato on a whole wheat bagel)
Water (blech)
Dinner:
Raw veggies (snow peas, baby carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, cucumer and grape tomatoes) with some ranch dressing as needed (that cauliflower is hard to choke down on its own).
One Diet Coke with Lime throughout day and a about 1/2 Diet Caffeine free Coke at night...
There is also some dark chocolate involved in my day at some point. I LURVE sweets. Would eat them 24/7 if it wouldn't put me into a diabetic coma.
See...no cooking necessary.
Weekend evenings are for splurges. I usually get Taco Bell one night and something from one of out other local 'step above fast food' restaurants. One of my favorites is called "Cabo San Lucas" and is fresh Mexican and SOOOO delicious.

It's just melted cheese really. I'm not a massive fan of regular cheese, but now and again I'll be in the mood for some. I can eat non-melted cheese most of the time. That goes for real cheese and processed alike. All the fake rubbery cheese slices and the wee triangular wedges kids get... and cheese flavour crisps are sometimes alright too. But melted cheese... blech. Something about it I just abhor.
edit: I missed the whole salt/sweet discussion going on. I'm definitely a lover of my salty foods. Chips, crisps, pretzels and so on... but I also hae a very sweet tooth. I cant help it, I love both. I clearly just want to die young.

See this is why you make your own pesto Rugbug then you control the oil content:) Also you can use it as the pizza base:) ( veggie pesto pizza with smoked provolone is to die for)
Also sweety your menu has some nutrition holes and could result in major osteoporosis later.. you need more lean protein and whole grains big time
Cool ponder though... what is your menu for today??
Mine is
Breakfast- Greek yogurt ( nonfat) with organic granola and 1 tsp honey
Lunch - salad with 9 vegetables, homemade chicken soup, 2 tangerines
Dinner- Beef stroganoff, potatos, homemade bread, and green beans:)
Ok Pesto (which doesn't involve the stove or the oven and takes less than 3 minutes.. and you can dip veggies and bread into it:)
2 handsful basil leaves
2 cloves garlic
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1/2 cup pine nuts ( can sub walnuts or almonds)
juice from one lemon
olive oil( or some olive oil some chicken broth)
Put leaves , garlic and lemon juice in blender. whir around until leaves mash up some. Throw in pinenuts and paremesan. Hit frappe and stream olive oil or broth/olive oil mixture ( 1 part oil to 2 parts broth) in until paste like consistency is achieved.. EAT:) To love someone is to see a miracle invisible to others.

And who's fault is that exactly? I'm going to go ahead and blame you. You need to eat. Put some meat on those bones. Food is good for you. Well some of it is anyway.
