Cell Phones are NO replacement for a Camera!

Okay, I cooked two of the finest Missouri Legacy Beef Ribeyes imaginable...and where is my camera? Florida. Okay, I admit, I have a little mad money file set up to fix that new camera bug but I did grab the cell phone and took a chance.





The result? A really poor picture of a great pair of steaks...corn on the cob, fresh steamed asparagus, some off the deli counter green onion egg potato salad (tastes like regular potato salad) and some Grape Soda...


We didn't spoil these bad boys...just some light ground garlic and parsley, some fresh ground sea salt and a fresh ground 4 pepper combination...seared at about 700 degrees on both sides, set off to rest for 15 minutes and back on the grill for another 2 minutes per side...medium rare at it's finest.


Then it was off to the Gym for a couple light games of racquetball with my son and a few laps in the pool...got to maintain that 45 Pound loss I have going you know. Keep On Eggin'!

Spatchcock flop and St Louis Cardinals

My son D is visiting this weekend and I cooked up some spatchock chicken (bone in chicken breasts with rib meat). They were HUGE and took forever to cook...I guess I am rusty using the egg just once ever few days, I ended up slicing them open to even get them to cook through...that was frustrating althought they eneded up just fine overall...they were NOT picture worthy however.

The thing that IS picture worthy was our trip to the Kansas City Royals St. Louis Cardinals baseball game at BUSCH STADIUM on Sunday and then our walk under the St. Louis Arch (just before getting ran off by the rain).

Tonight we're doing some legacy beef ribeyes...you can bet I'll get them done right...and hopefully they will be picture worthy. Keep On 'Eggin!

End Of Year Ballet - Fabulous!

Well, what can I say...my daughters end of year ballet performance was a wonderful experience. While I won't have pictures or DVD of the peformance for a few weeks, we did manage to get a great family shot after the performance.

Tonight is PROM...so if we can corral the kids in one location the 'plan' is to get some pictures...first however we have to get the kids to decide exactly where we are going to meet and at what time; you know what it's like dealing with those arrangements I am sure. Keep on Eggin in the meantime.

Sunfest 2009

What a weekend. Our Son's band Wait For Green was featured on the Coors Light Stage Saturday night at Sunfest in West Palm Beach. It was almost sureal to see him on stage playing drums at such a huge venue.

Of course it's their dream to hit the big times and who knows. It was a huge moment for them and a real rush to ol' proud papa here. Look them up on myspace/waitforgreen or on youtube.com search wait for green for some videos...and keep on eggin' (Hoping to get in some cooking this week some night, I'm having BGE withdrawal).
