I can’t say enough how much I love steaks. One of my favorites has always been Filet Mignon. You can’t get a better steak than one that has been cooked just right. But, we also have to consider what we are going to do with this nice piece of meat- are we going to add a little seasoning, or just go with good old A-1. Well have I have got a steak recipe just for you. I am a big fan of garlic also, I even take those little garlic pills. So why don’t we add a little garlic into our Filet and see how it goes…Here is the recipe:
2 whole heads of roasted garlic
1 cup red whine vinegar
3 shallots, finelly chopped
2 cups chicken broth
4 1-inch thick beef tenderloin steaks
1 teaspoon crushed black peppercorns
Combine: wine vinegar and shallots in a small saucepan
Boil until almost all the liquid has evaporated
Add the chicken broth-boil until you have about a cup left
Squeeze the garlic from the roasted cloves and puree.
Pour in the broth and puree and KEEP WARM 
Press the pepper into both sides of the steaks.
Rotate ina Flat Standard Basket for 15-20 minutes.
Now serve, topped with the Garlic and there you have it Gourmet Mignon.
I know what I am cooking tonight and I know exactly where i am going to be getting the steaks from.
Love this place and for the best steaks for your Gourmet Mignon there is no other.

If you are like me, then you are not much of a shopper and when it comes to my wife, I sometimes just don’t know what to get. Sure she can go to the mall and spend hours just browsing around the stores until she finds that perfect something. But, for me, I am lost the second I walk into the place. I am looking here and there and everywhere and I usually just want to “get out of dodge”. Well, in my opinion, that is what makes online shopping such a great idea. Now for us guys, the whole shopping for your wife’s birthday or maybe your anniversary has become a lot easier. But, you might say, ” How am I to know what to get ?” Well the first step is to just pay attention to the types of things your significant other likes. Does she watch QVC or the Home Shopping Network, if she does, well then, there you go. The next step is to be really blunt
” Honey, if I could buy you any perfume in the world, which one would you want?” I am sure that she will give at least one answer. Now all we need to go do, so that we never have to go to the mall again, is get online. A great resource for this that I have found, one that my wife especially likes, is this Strawberry store. Believe me, before you know it you will have ordered exactly what the woman of your dreams wants and in just a short time be handing it to her with a “Surprise” look what I got you 
Smiles all around and maybe if you splurged a little, you do love her don’t ya’, a little more…..Happy Shopping Guys, it has just got so much easier.

I just got set up with FIOS and I love it. The speed of my computer has changed drastically, it is a great service. I tell you, it is way better than my old verizon DSL setup. Now for about the same price of my old DSL I have 10MB download and 2MB upload speeds which is so much better than my old 3mb/765kb setup. Along with the verizon online account I also have the wonderul FIOS TV, this includes high definition. This is perfect for my brand new LCD television. With two standard definition boxes, one high definition set top box, phone service and High Speed Dsl, my price is around 120 dollars a month. This is pretty sweet! Why is it so great? Because, before I was paying the same amount for regular cable through Time Warner and an upgraded 3 MB DSL/phone service through Verizon. Actually, I was paying about 5$ to $10.00 more. So you can see why I am so excited about this FIOS Service. If you have the chance and you are located in an area with the fiber optic services needed for FIOS I would strongly recommend getting it. It will make your television/online/phone experience so much better.
So here is a recap of what I am getting for about $120 a month:
200 plus (almost 250) channels, excluding movie channels.
10/2 Download/Upload online speeds
The verizon freedom essentials phone plan with
a) call waiting
b) number recognition
c) complete online support
I just got started with the service so as I learn more by will definitely be writing about it.
For another view check here.
Edit:
So, checking through my service I have found that I have about 20 HD channels. I hope verizon keeps adding more because this just is not enough for the cost. But, they have said that they will be adding more and more high definition channels, especially since cable is going all digital soon(2009 here we come). So I expect to have more HDchannels added on within the next year. We will just have to see.
On a better note, the service does include on demand channels. This includes on demand HD movies, kids shows, music programs, recorded network shows (discovery, NBC, Smithsonian channel etc.) and much more. I really do enjoy this part of Fios because I can watch whatever I want, whenever I want without having to go to the video store or wait for a program to be airing.
Oh, the prices can be so high to fly anywhere in the world, especially with the luggage situation that is developing. During New Year’s it can get even worse. For a good run down of what is out there and some good search terms, check out this New Year’s travel post.
Found a good post on Rome. This one is on a more positive note. Check out the joke, lol. I tell you, those Romans think that they are all comedians. Oh, one more thing everyone should save up and go to Rome, just to see St. Peter’s basilica and the Sistine Chapel, they will blow you away.
