She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage. ... she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her.
-Benjamin Franklin

My Creation

*Note - If y'all haven't figured it out yet, I'm gonna let the secret out. I've decided to title all my blog posts with song titles. They might be from any artist, any genre. It's how I've finally figured out how to dedicate my little corner of the internets to one of my chief loves: music. It works for me!

*************************

So, I'm writing this post on the evening of Vacation Day III (Saturday). I'm sipping on a glass of Trio Cabernet Sauvignon 2007 Reserva. I was right: it was the perfect pairing for tonight's meal.

Tonight's meal consisted of grilling happiness. The red mead was gently sprinkled with sea salt and green herbs. The womenfolk both had prime cuts of Beef Tenderloin, while I had a bison Ribeye. I also had a marinated - lime, wine, lemon pepper, and Emeril's Essence - grilled shrimp I invented on the fly (womens don't like shrimp. Something's not quite right with them...). We also had prosciutto-wrapped grilled asparagus that was Momma-slap-good. The Wifey picked up a little roll of Buffala Mozzarella with prosciutto and basil that she sliced and put on Jewish Rye before toasting it.

Your mouth watering yet? If not, LEAVE MY BLOG RIGHT NOW INFIDEL!!!

Y'all, we ate like royalty tonight. I could eat like this every night, provided I actually win the lottery sometime.

Sorry if I'm all over the map tonight. That was just a damn good meal. Srsly. IMHO, that is hands-down the best tasting meal I have ever cooked. Hooray me!

  1. Mouthwatering, indeed. Good song, too, from a great album.

Feel free to drop a line. You don't have to keep it clean - God knows, I won't - but keep it above the belt.
