The Best Steak You Ever Had! Oh and a Secret Ingredient share too!

I am totally not exaggerating when I say 'The Best Steak You Ever Had' I used to think my dad made the best steak ever then I told my husband a few tricks my dad did and he started making the best steaks ever!
Heres our secret...

 This is simply the most yummy marinade ever and let me tell you.. We always marinade for at least 48 hours! It makes it sooo tender and every bite is infused with the yumminess!
 My hubs is such a good sport! Here is is with all the necessities to grill the best steak ever!
 We always pour all the extra marinade in a bowl and baste the steaks with every turn! We generally always do ribeyes! YUM
The trick is to first do each side for 5 minutes then turn the steaks every 3 minutes until done to your liking!
This makes the most tender, perfect steak ever!
 I am also a fan of mushrooms and onions with my steak!  I saute in a lil bit of butter and my special secret  ingredient that I generally try to add to as many things as I can because I love the flavor!...
 Yep this is it..... My secret ingredient! lol its so yummy!

And there you have it... The best steak ever!  Marinade for 48 hours, turn every 3 minutes and enjoy!

Hair Mask Fail

Ok so we all see these incredible and unbelievable before and after hair mask photos! You know the ones where you mix household ingredients and get luxuriously shiny and beautiful hair from a frazzled mess?
Well.. I tried it.. It was stinky and kinda made me gag a little... Notice the scalp and the chunks of egg?  I know right?! Haha EEWWW

 The after did seem a little softer.  I guess I have to do it more often to really see a difference?

Have you done a hair mask before? Did it work?  What are your recipes?
This one was 2 eggs and 3 tbs of olive oil....

Water Challenge!


Drinking water has been a challenge for me! Especially Drinking enough water! 
 I saw this idea on pinterest and yesterday decided to try it for my self!  I put 1 band on for each bottle I needed to drink for the day and at the end of each bottle removed 1 band until they were all gone!
Drinking half your body weight in fluid ounces is the best and its often hard when you weigh over 200 lbs but its doable!  Yesterday I got to 10 pm and still had 1 whole bottle left! Eeeeks!  I ended up not finishing but my challenge to myself and my getting healthy friends for this week is to drink all your water every day for this week!!!! 

Who is with me? Can you drink all your water? Half your weight in fluid oz?  IE if you weigh 160 you need 80 oz?!
I got this!!!!
