Bacon Cheese Avocado Steakburger!

Feast your eyes upon the most beautiful – and delicious – steakburger this household has ever seen!

It is a most masterful creation. And I can’t even take credit for this one. My mother lovingly crafted this baby and we almost didn’t want to eat it. We didn’t want to disturb its beauty and grandeur.

But we ate it anyway.

I mean, let’s see, we’ve got bacon (drool), avocado (good for you) and cheese (makes everything better) on top of a meaty steakburger.

I can’t see anything wrong with this picture.

Try this one yourself. But try to control yourself a little better than we did. We wished we had more time with it before it was gone.

Maybe you’ll have more luck.

But fat chance.

Enjoy!

Breakfast of Champions

September is All American Breakfast Month.

And that works for me. There pretty much isn’t a breakfast food I don’t love. So why not celebrate it all month?

But one thing is up in the air:  We can’t all seem to agree on what exactly makes an “All American Breakfast.”

I suppose it’s whatever makes you happy.

To some, it’s oatmeal, grapefruit, nuts, milk and juice.

For me, it MUST include bacon. And eggs. And toast. Plus orange juice.

But, I cannot forget about our friends who enjoy the mighty steak and egg breakfast. Especially Kansas steaks. Can you imagine USDA prime steaks for breakfast? My mouth is watering right now.

Or ham and eggs. Now THAT’S a breakfast!

We can’t forget about pastries, bagels and donuts also. And cereal!

So with all that swirling in your mind, what does the All American Breakfast mean to you?

The great thing is, if you don’t already know you can take all month to figure it out!

Cut Your Steak With a Knork

It’s a knife! It’s a fork! It’s super…

No, it’s a knork.

A what?

A knork.

Just as the name implies, it’s a cross between a knife and a fork. A knork!

It’s really mostly shaped like a fork but the bottom side is sharp like a knife so you can use one utensil to cut into your juicy steak and then eat it.

Supposedly it will not cut your teeth or your gums/tongue/cheek when you put it in your mouth. It has been tested and beveled to prevent that.

Pretty cool!

The knork has its detractors, though. Some feel that it encourages shoveling your food in your mouth. And “lazy eaters.”

But this new tool could prove to be very positive for disabled eaters who only have use of one hand. You can read more about knork technology here.

Me? I like the idea of getting to each bite of steak a little faster. That’s not a bad thing in my book.

I say bring on the knorks! I’m in!
