A Dinner

I am mesmerized by food photography. Some of the food blogs I love are Smitten Kitchen, Pioneer Woman’s Tasty Kitchen, Simply Recipes and For the Love of Cooking. So, without further adieu, here is my first food blog post.



I made a dinner of rib eye steak with a side of onions/peppers/mushrooms, and pear/arugula salad with balsamic glaze, feta cheese and goat cheese.

First I prepared the steaks with chopped garlic and some steak seasoning. They rested on the counter until they were room temperature.

While the steaks were marinating in their spices, the onion/pepper mix and salad was started.

Time to grill the steaks on my NEW gas stove!

The finished products! One of the steaks has crumbled blue cheese and the other a pad of garlic butter.
