I HAS A HAPPY thread

[penny0527]

the best steaks i think, are from texas. i went on a biz trip a few years ago, and it was...out of a dream, this steak. lol melted like butter, had such a delicious taste with no need for salt or pepper. makes me wonder why the steaks from there are so much better than other parts of the US...hmmm.

The best steak I have ever had is a tie between a particular dinner at Saltgrass Steakhouse near my house and The Keg in Niagara Falls Canada.

New username/acct because I signed up for the 100K Transformation Challenge, but took the pictures wrong. So that account was disqualified. Needed a whole new account to re-enter properly.

Hey now! I take care of those llamas and ****! But gov't doesn't pay me to do it. We vet residents get paid so effing little they give us a break!

^^Yup. I always go for Niman Ranch meat when I have a choice. Wonderful stuff. They carry it in quite a few of our local markets too.

Yeah I am a big fan of NR
there was a californian company that was trying to compete with NR I forgot the name but it was pretty close and a bit cheaper too

Congrats!!!!!



It's a steak place, and unfortunately it's Restaurant Week here in Philly so it's a limited menu, but nothing like a good filet and I know that's one of the choices. I am going to be very hungry when I get there so I will enjoy

I love steak!!!! Enjoy your filet

I love Saltgrass!!!


It's date night tonight with my man so I'm extremely happy

Might be Prather Ranch? I've had their stuff and they are good but the quality isn't as consistent as Niman. Prather is working a lot of the local farmers markets out here and also have a store front in the Ferry Building in SF now.

I finally got a shift change at work. It wasn't exactly what I asked for, but it's good enough for now. Mon-Wed I'm day shift and Thurs & Fri I'm evening. So I've actually been able to see and spend some time with my husband during the week this week. It's been pretty nice.

I love ya too and you know I do
concealed carry class?
ya know people like to say that a class reunion is not a good reason to lose weight and get in good shape
or bathing suit season or going on a cruise ...

why do they say this??is it a better reason then to just lose weight and exercise but yet have nothing interesting or fun to look forward to down the road???sh*t you just entered my world..months of doing this everyday all winter long with what to look forward to? spring?
Yes I do look forward to that. I like the little flowers that grow at Easter time.



Mrs. H
you gotta beautiful baby boy who is growing and changing a little bit each day
judging by that new AVI? your body is changing and you are feeling more confident and working hard on you
this in turn influences your confidence and you are looking Hawt
looking Hawt makes for a happy hubby

money struggles are always gonna be there..at least they have been in my world

[itsagoodday]

Thanks all for helping me celebrate the glorious land of BW dips

On another happy note, I now own my very first pair of lifting straps. $9.20 later and I'm so proud Usually my grip is pretty darned good, but it's failing me in my new program due to heavy stuff overload, lol. So it was time for straps. Can't wait to use them... come on Monday!!!

that sounds like a near perfect day...happy when things work out well like dat.

i've never used straps, but now that i'm lifting heavier with deads, i think they might help. i am afraid that i won't wrap them around right, and i'll drop the weight. lol i worry about stuff like this.


happy saturday everyone!!!

I am just happy to be off work today. About to fire up the grill and enjoy this unbelievable weather. February.... 75° and sunny.

[DaniGrrl]

My steak was amazing!!!! We had ordered a bunch of sides but they only brought the asparagus. Which was fine with me - the lobster mac and cheese and au gratin hash browns were not necessary. Though I'm sure they would have been amazing, too. But the chef visited our table and they brought us 3 additional desserts in addition to the desserts that came with our dinners. Being Restaurant Week, there was a set menu with dessert included in the price. They also brought us free adult milkshakes. Extra dessert always makes me happy

[BrotherWolf]

this made me laugh.. not happy but it's funny

Texas Roadhouse does make their steaks really good too. How do you prefer yours?
I will usually get mine Medium or medium well depending on the restaurant.

so true
