Steak Enthusiast

You want some of this???

Yeah, there’s nothing like a steak and salad to just make your day. This happens to be a Kansas City Strip butterflied slightly and drizzled with EVOO (that’s Rachael Ray speak for extra virgin olive oil) then finished off with a little salt and pepper to taste.

Simple. Yummy. Perfect.

You can go all fancy (which I do like to do at times). Or you can keep it simple and just let the steak do its thing.

This particular strip was prepared by my mama. She likes things straightforward and unfettered. And I love her for that.

Happy Mother’s Day this weekend to all the mommies out there! May your day be simple, yummy and perfect, too!

No matter what your personal politics are, don’t you always wonder what really goes on in the White House? Here’s what Bill used to do when Hillary was away. If she becomes our next president I’d imagine he won’t be able to keep this hush-hush for long.

Quote from sogoodblog.com:

Meal the White House chef would secretly make for Bill when Hillary was away: 24 oz Porterhouse steak with Bernaise sauce and fried onion rings.

This cracks me up. Why was this such a secret? Was it the size of that baby that she was ashamed of? Perhaps she would have approved of something more dainty like a thin-cut ribeye or some beef tenderloin tips?

I say if you wanna hang with the big boys you’d better eat like one.

It makes perfect sense to me.

I want to know . . . do you eat steak for breakfast?

This photo I took of the soft play area at my local shopping mall has immortalized the T-bone on a plate with eggs sunny-side-up.               

It’s obviously a breakfast plate.          

So, tell me your “steak for breakfast” stories. I need to understand more about this phenomenon.       

You see, I’m strictly a “steak after 12 pm” kinda gal. It’s not that I completely shun the idea of steak in the morning. I’ve just never tried it.    

I want to hear from those of you who have. And give it to me straight. What is the deal?
