As promised...

Here is my flank steak marinade.

It really is amazingly delicious...

I got it from my friend Cathy, who lives a few miles from my house and who was the first person to really embrace me as a friend when we moved to Spokane. She used to watch my babies for me so I could go to bible study.

This marinade is perfect to make when you buy your flank steak - and then freeze it all together. When you pull it out of the freezer, the steak will marinate as it thaws.

Cathy's Flank Steak

1/2 c. soy sauce
1/2 c. olive oil
1/4 c. honey
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 Tablespoon dried rosemary (or 3 Tablespoons fresh)
1 1/2 Tablespoons pepper (this will seem like a lot... don't skimp!)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 to 2 1/2 pound flank steak

Combine all marinade ingredients and pour over steak.

I usually try to let it marinate at least 8 hours...

Slice on the diagonal and grill or broil to desired doneness.

My brother Steve once said "It's better than candy."

It's perfect with a great salad and some yummy asiago cheese bread...

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...

Good morning, peeps. It's Friday. There's frost outside this morning. *FROST!* This week has been ridiculously chilly. I'm having mixed feelings about blogging lately. Mostly because I feel like all I've been doing is whine about being tired. Or overwhelmed. And because comments are lacking. And because I can't seem to think about anything to write about except Tejan. And because some of the thoughts I'm having are too private for the blog - or too repetitive. Or too unformed to turn into actual words you all could understand. So I'm struggling a bit. And yet, I'm committed to documenting the process I'm in. So I'll keep writing when the words come. And when they don't, like this morning, when I looked at that intimidating blinking cursor and my mind went blank and I started to break out in a cold sweat and began by talking about the weather... well, then, I'll just gracefully (or not so gracefully) back out of the room... tail between m...
