dinner had the fire dept at our door!

the past couple of times when i attempted steak, it never was right. meat too tough or it didnt taste tt well. so last night, i finally got my steak right, it looked like it came from a restaurant. it was medium rare....i had the timing right, the marination right.....it was super super yummy. sooooo goooooood.

problem is, the apt was filled with so much smoke tt the fire alarm went off! and when we opened the apt door for the boy to run down to the concierge to tell him tt it's just us cooking and nothing's on fire, the smoke went out to the corridor and.....THE BUILDING'S ALARM WENT OFF.

next thing you know, the fire dept was banging on our doors. i mean the real firemen came...the big burly guys with all their equipment, like those u see on tv. there were abt 8 at our door, all were twice my size. however, when we opened the door the first question they asked was "mdm, are you cooking?" i think this happens all the time...hahahahaha! and then they walked in and asked about what i was cooking. hilarious.

i wanted a picture with them but was too scared to ask. so off they went....and we went on with our yummy dinner.



here's the boy in the midst of the smoky apt, trying to fan the smoke out the window.


and him making me dessert. with my chocolate muffin and chocolate ice cream!



so that's our saturday. the first saturday we decided to stay in because it was raining the whole day...and we have tv and internet now. so we stayed in, went to the nearby mall for a short while to have lunch and pick up books from borders, went to the gym and decided to have a good dinner and the drama happened. but it was super hilarious, one experience we will always remember.
