We were basically outside from the minute I came home from work until about 10:00!   And I beat Hannah in baggo – first time ever!

I ended up going to the farmers market after work and luckily found a parking spot right away.  It’s a small market – the most popular station was the cheese station, although the woman who worked the booth could not have been less friendly.  This old woman walked up and pointed to swiss cheese and asked “what kind of cheese is this?”  The lady responded “you’ll have to wait your turn!”

The flank steak turned out really flavorful.  I marinated it in this combo since breakfast, but could easily be marinated overnight too:

  • 1/3 cup olive il
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1/3 soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
for medium rare, it doesn't take long - maybe 8 minutes total
