Going out for lunch after church today with my husband, daughter and grandaughter. I was just putting in the food I was thinking of ordering and don't know if I'll order what I was thinking or not. I was thinking of sirloin steak with a side salad and two sides of broccoli. Sounds like alot for one meal.

I often have steak and salad, or steak and broc when I go out to lunch...but not generally both - cause for me the steak is very filling. (be sure to ask them if the steak is "pre-marinated" or if it is 'clean'. marinades will have sugars! So tell them you want yours plain...or with a dry spice rub...and put a little pad of real butter on your hot steak...delish!) Enjoy your lunch out :)

Well, you could always get a "doggie" bag. I find steak to be really filling. And you could make a steak salad sandwich with the leftovers. I find that a very delicious meal. Enjoy!

Cindy, I usually do one or the other, but not both. Just too much food. Try getting a take home box at the beginning of the meal, and take part of the steak, part of the veggie and put them in the box before starting your meal, then you can have both the salad and the veggie, with enough for a late lunch later. Now, what is going on with the granddaughter and the emergency clinic?

Well, we didn't make it to church this morning because my grandaughter has had some kind of virus since just before Christmas. When we took her to the clinic this morning they said that she has Infantigo. Probably spelled that wrong. If I was transcribing I would have to look that one up for spelling. Anyhow, we had a nice drive to Rockford. Listened to praise music all the way there and back. The drive up highway 2 is beautiful even in the winter. The river is partially iced over and the trees are dead but the scenery still reminds us of an awesome God. We decided not to go out to eat. Cliff will bring home some steaks and we will grill them at home. I'll make the side of broccoli and something for the baby. Cliff will probably bake some of his bread. Still have a hard time when I smell homemade bread, however it is getting easier to resist the temptation. Wound up having an Atkins shake for breakfast. Hope it doesn't stall my weight loss. Hope everyone is doing well. I'll check journals later. Probably play some Yahtzee with the family and finish a gingerbread house with Olivia later. We leave tomorrow to head back to St. Louis. Talk to ya'll later.

Homemade steaks are even better without so much oil and butter. I heard they brush so much of both when they grill it in the restaurants. And you can also control sodium way better for homemade broccoli. Enjoy your lunch, Cindy. Hope your granddaughter gets well soon. And have a safe trip back tomorrow!
