Just a bit of this and that

Bente made the most fabulous steak and lobster on the grill last Saturday.  I cannot remember the last time I had lobster….what a fancy feast this was!  The steak was meltingly tender too!

I think she is studying under Isadora Duncan

Ryah is playing with the Birthday gift we gave her, the little sing-song cake.  Twice in the video you can hear her blowing out the candles.  I didn’t mean to continue recording this long, but I could not get enough of Ryah’s spontaneous dancing.  She has just had her bath and always has an air bath afterwards.  At the end of the video, it was a bit unexpected, but then what can I say?  Just try not to giggle!

Bente marinated the beef, I cut it up in pieces and whacked it with the back of the knife blade and in the dehydrator it went.  It was so much easier than I thought it would be.  I had always wanted one of these and this was my first chance to try it.  I haven’t tried a piece yet, but Bente and Mikey both liked it.

Ryah always stacks her food in her hand and eats them that way.  cracks me up.  The red on her neck is just magic marker.  We may have an artist budding.
