How are you? I am thankful we are staying Sheltered in Place and we are safe and well. I hope you are too. I can’t think about all this for too long or I start to question the sanity of it all. But being Sheltered in Place is the right road to travel.
So we are all here. Together. Staying Entertained. Doing lots of Cooking which, for me, is a Wish Come True. Setting Up Dinners as Restaurant Dining. Sharing Moments. And taking Time to Listen to Each Other.

Tonight we are dining at a Fancy Steak Place. Having a Steak House Picnic. I hoped Cooking on the Grill would work…anything to get out of the house…but the Wind is Crazy, Steak on Top of the Stove will have to Work.
The Original Cooker Man is in the House.

Steak and Onions. Medium.

Fresh Carrots.

Fake Mashed Potatoes. I know…but, they’re easy.

Seasonings on Deck. Thank You Costco. $19.99 for All this. I miss you Costco. Just saying. 🙂

Caesar Salad. Prepared in a bag. Rocking some Mermaid Blue Polish.

Ready.
