I bought three small steaks at Safeway the other day and have been treating myself to steak and mashed potatoes over the past couple of days. Man does not live by frozen meals alone.
My "default" is to poke holes in the steak, dump a bit of Worcestershire sauce on top, add a couple of garlic cloves and pepper, and broil it up. I go for rare but it usually winds up medium rare. The mashed potatoes are Idahoan packaged (freeze dried?), but they're really good, especially after I add a big dollop of butter.
What did you have for dinner last night? How do you like your steak (assuming you eat steak)?

You're supposed to cook the whole lady, not just her fingers, Amelia... I thought I'd told you it's a waste to just cook the fingers.

@TheHorse Ladyfingers are okra. Don't you remember your girlfriend's hand I rescued from the soup you were making?

@vandana7 I can't believe pony is going on his trip without taking you with him... I thought he was "rewarding" you for all your hard work.

Let me see... we had rice and corned beef omelet (yes, this was dinner, not breakfast 
), and some mushroom soup. 
I... don't think I've ever had steak. At least not the thick kind that I see on those youtube videos from other countries... So, I don't really know what is rare, medium rare, medium,...
The closest to a steak that I've probably had is a pork chop. 
And when we cook that, it's always probably what you'd call well done. And I know from the videos I've seen that most people think "well done" is ruined. 
But whatever. That's the way we've always eaten it.

I love me some mushrooms soup. What was in it, aside from mushrooms?

I had a bowl of watermelon for dinner last night. It's been too hot to eat.

@TheHorse No. No problems besides eyes swelling up. If you could put out your forest fires, that would probably help.
Pretty and I make up pickle juice for me to drink if I get charley horses.

I did not have a steak. I made a salad. And I wrote a post about it that was almost a recipe. It turned out delicious!!!
Sometimes one of my dinners begin with something I hear or read. In this case, it was a post made by @sharon6345 . I thanked Sharon and went to the...

I made frozen pizza from Trader Joe's and had that with a pickle on the side. It was Margarita pizza. I don't remember getting it before. Wasn't a huge fan of it. Their other pizzas are better.
I've never poked holes in my steak before.

@TheHorse I’m from NYC but that’s not a NYC thing. It’s a Lena thing.

Lunch was Meals on Wheels. Didn't eat it because we were going out to eat after my doctor's appointment. Just posted an update if you're interested. I had rigatoni with a 5-cheese marinara and grilled chicken at the Olive Garden. We also had their salad and bread sticks.

@TheHorse Glad your blood pressure was good. I wish I would have taken the leftover salad home.

I was in England last night... I think. There was a big clock in a tower and most people sort of spoke English, so I think it was England...so I had a German Chocolate Cake for dinner. It took 4 and a half hours to get there because Germany is so far away but it was good.

That's superb meal. Last night, as usual dined with grilled tuna belly with chili sauce and celery. Stomach full.
