How I Celebrated

Today was such a glorious day. I don't think I can express how delicious my food was. Nate went to the neighborhood butcher and got the prime rib. He won't tell me how much he paid because he pulled a Molly and panicked keeping the butcher in business, just buying it cause we needed it and cause social anxiety makes you feel pressured to do anything to get out of a situation. I woke up to mouth watering smells and Nate searing the already slow roasted meat. He only cooked one of the two steaks and it looked rare and delicious. Since it was the night before/ he was preparing me my lunch for work, it was rare so that I could warm it up again in the microwave (so sad for a prime cut, right?) But I had a few bites off of the large chop of fat that Nate doesn't seem to like. I think I could have died right then it was that heavenly. Anyhow, my video shows it not so rare, along side a healthy helping of mashed potatoes. My half was now a bit dry from the microwave, but still 100% worth whatever ridiculous price Nate had to pay because I enjoyed and savored every bite. This actually might have been the first steak Nate has ever bought and prepared while we have been married!!

Punchbowl
 I always thought prime rib was something different than steak, not just a "choice" cut of beef.
