She Who Waits

"They also serve who only stand and wait." - John Milton

Check.

I checked another thing off my 'deployment list' tonight.

I grilled a steak on our new grill. It was tender, juicy, and not overdone at all. :roof

Now, let me just say that I am the cook in the house. He likes it that way and I enjoy cooking, so it works for us. I usually do the grilling too, aside from steaks. Steaks used to scare me, especially on the contraption in our back yard which used to pass for a grill. I secretly think he liked it that way. Some sort of man pride thing about grilling or something ...

Today, I decided no more steak fear. The new grill cooked evenly, quickly, and reliably. :woot:

I can now confidently cook my husband a steak when he returns from Iraq. Check.

:secret I'll still forfeit steak duties if he wants them, but I'm grilling his first steak at home.

I find it particularly ironic that as I scroll down your posts your Ads by Google box has an ad for steaks in it...:giggle:
