And the Steak Jumped Over the Moon

A little chart for ya on this educational Friday.

For the older kids, this chart’ll help you learn where each cut of beef comes from on the cow. Take notes, because there WILL be a test later.

And for you younger ones, well, just enjoy an age-old nursery rhyme involving a cow jumping over the moon.

That’s enough learning for today. My head hurts now.

And I’m hungry.

Happy Friday, everyone!

How Do You Like Your Steak?

This photo chart from the Sheraton Hotel in Akron, Ohio, is a helping hand for guests when deciding how they want their steak cooked.

It also might serve as a subliminal message to, in fact, order a steak. It sure makes ME crave one!

So cool! I’m thinking of framing this and putting it over my mantel. Yum.

I found this online steak guide on Pinterest. I’ve said it before — if you haven’t yet checked that site out . . . DO IT! It’s so entertaining!

Happy cooking, everybody!

Steak in a Nutshell

 

I found this cute little “Brief History of Steak” online and thought you might like to see it.

It’s all the basics of steak in a neat, concise package. Looks like a school project.

I’m wishing my school projects had been so much fun. I remember styrofoam solar systems which included planets that are no longer planets now.

My how things change.

Check out this sweet little page here – and share it with your kids. It’s educational!
