Time for Dinner!

Today, I really really wanted something bold to eat.  I seasoned my steaks with minced onion, garlic, pepper, a sprinkle of salt and Lea & Perrins.  Then I pan grilled them in my trusty cast iron skillet.  Let me digress for a minute, I LOVE my skillet.  I really mean that.  I LOVE it.  It is one of those things I hope to take to my grave, unless of course it needs to be handed off sooner.  But anyway. It is my favorite cooking tool for now. 

I must also mention at this point, only one steak fit into the skillet at a time.  So, I cooked six steaks one at a time and it filled the house with a wonderful steak smoke smell.  During some of the cooking time I cleaned up the kitchen, and took out the trash and I could actually smell our steaks outside.  That was something special.

So, I served these babies up with a pile of herb green salad and finished it off with iced spice cake for dessert.

Some days, we just need something that not only "feeds the blood" but, also feeds the soul.
