Undas 2006

Just like every year, I went to visit the graves of my aunt, grandfather, and grandmother this Nov1. It's a family tradition in my mother's side, and for this year, my dad decided to go to Bicol to visit my grandmother's grave there. I always look forward to the tacos and arroz caldo which my family makes when we visit the graves. This year, though, the special item is me cooking steak.
I decided to cook a steak meal for my relative's lunch, thought they may like something different, and I'd get to practice on cooking steak on a charcoal grill. I requested my SO to make her mashed potatoes (my favorite), and some steak sauce for me to take and re-heat. It's really sweet of her, specially since she did this even when she just got her new cat (thank you! :D). So, the entire meal consisted of:
  • CAB (Certified Angus Beef) rib eye steaks
  • mashed potatoes
  • grilled asparagus
  • corn and carrots

Needless to say, it was a hit!
