An hour late.

So my friend said, again, again.  Again, again, I said, that being an hour late means I was exactly on time.  He still chuckles.  Pulls him right out of his grump.  On to Maddox.  He ordered the bison ribeye, I ordered the beef ribeye.  We were supposed to share fifty fifty, but he changed that, and just wanted to split a quarter out.  No sweat off my back, that.  I decided to eat the bison first.  I didn't think it would be as good, and is probably better hot. 

To be honest, I wasn't expecting much.  Don't get me wrong.  I truly enjoy venison.  Deer, elk, bison, probably others I haven't tasted.  If it were more readily available, of I could hunt, I would eat it often.  Make no mistake, however, for pure flavor, nothing... no thing... beats beef ribeye for me.  Lobster is probably the next best thing, to my tastes, if it is in good shape, fresh, and cooked live.  It's not a distant second, but it is second place.  I have seen other try to create cuts from venison, various steaks or roasts and ribs.  To me, venison is just venison.  Because of the lean, and usually smaller size, all cuts were just... venison.  Which I do enjoy, but not like ribeye of beef.  Okay, bison ribeye is good, and isn't just venison.  Live and learn.

The beef ribeye they put on the plate there, though...  That is better than bacon, better than anything else.  And they are, as far as my many travels and dining experiences, world class.  I have never tasted better, only once having comparable.  Meat candy.  Two of those, one put on to cook as the first comes out to be eaten, a half gallon of whole milk, and I would be good.  For a feast, I might be able to eat another one or two, but I would need more milk.  It's rich.  Hmm... next time I go, I may see if they will give me a meal price cut on just the steaks and milk, if they have whole... or allow me to bring in an half gallon.  It's got to be whole milk, the rest is wash water.  Love that beef ribeye.  The bison wasn't bad, and it truly is a different cut... not just venison.  But I go their for ribeye, and beef is simply better.  Now I know.

Right... tonight?  Probably not much.  I hope to take some pictures, then add the software to the laptop and process them.  I then have to figure out how to transfer... oh, right, I do have flash drives, extras.  I might even try to post a few snappies, even tonight, or not.  Maybe a load of laundry will go in before all that.  I'm not going to do a lot.  But I might get a couple of loads of laundry, pictures and an installation, and some other minor things. 

Tomorrow was going to be a day off.  I thought it was Friday, today.  Not so much.  I may try to get back into town.  My friend needed to do some shopping.  I want to return some packages.  And, if I can get in early, I would like to figure out his printer problem.  It works on everything but the one thing he really wants and sometimes needs.  So... I'd like to figure that out.  I'll call him.  He should still be awake.  He likes sooner rather than later.  These days, I am sometimes able to deliver just that.  Then... the weekend is pretty much downtime.  I might do a little cleaning and straightening.  Perhaps tinker with the camera.  And work on omelets, after practice flipping a towel, and maybe other things, in the frying pan, probably several pans of various sizes.  Hey... it's fun.  If it is more result oriented fun. 

Later.
