Our sweet sleepy guy wishes you a happy Valentine's Day. :D
We had Jaden's beef and broccoli for dinner tonight. Tasty, easy, and worked for both Valentine's Day and the tail end of the Chinese New Year.

We went to a sadly disappointing Oktoberfest down in Puyallup this past weekend. The food was mediocre and overpriced, which wouldn't have been quite as bad if they didn't charge admission to the whole thing. There were a couple vendors, and a bean bag toss game set up, ...

Tonight we tried a new easy to use marinade - Jack Daniels Marinade in a Bag. I got some tri tip steak and gave the mesquite flavor a go. I marinated the steak for about 1.5 hours before grilling. The marinade smelled great in the bag and ...
