O.M.D!!!

You read that right! Oh My DELICIOUS!!! Honey and I were up and gardening early this morning! Poor guy, re-tilled the empty part of the garden. We commiserated over the wilty ones :( Talked to our local pros about it at the garden store and they looked at us like we were dumb. I am surprised that they didn't give some sort of Gardens for Dummies book. Well I will just tell you, by no means am I pro gardener, I am amateur for sure...but I have HAD gardens before. And they did great. So I suppose it is just a wait and see, touch and go marathon with our little veggie plants. Hopefully they will rally and pull out of their funk. After talking to my mamma last night, she gave me all sorts of tips and hope. Mammas are good for letting you vent. My aunt also had gardening tips, and said that sometimes they will wilt and usually come out of it. Fingers crossed!

We went to the garden store and bought some more plants to fill out our garden. I cannot WAIT for everything to be ready! The girls are loving the garden already (typical kids - carefree, yada yada, while I am trying to keep everyone alive!) After that job was taken care of, I made honey some lunch before he had to get going to work... Here is where the Delicious part comes in. He wanted steak - so I did some onions and mushrooms to go with it. Wow! They were SO good!

~Onions and Mushrooms~

1/2 can of beer your choice
1 large sweet onion
1 styrofoam container of mushrooms (whole)
Montreal Steak seasoning (McCormicks)
Salt
Pepper
1 T butter

I sliced the onion, and separated all the rings into individuals. I halved and quartered the mushrooms. put them in a bowl, poured half a beer on them, a little salt, a little pepper, and some Montreal Steak seasoning. I let them sit for probably about 30 minutes while I got the steak prepared and marinated. Put them in a pan, juice included and sauteed them with a tablespoon of butter, on high, until most of the liquid was evaporated. Then I turned the heat down until the steak was done and everything had the done-ness I was looking for.

Delicious, for real. I used a light beer (I don't like beer to drink, but cooking with it is incredible!) but a darker beer would have been even better. And I used regular white mushrooms, but I adore bellas...
