Speaking of steaks, i went to pick some ribeyes up on vacation, it was like 9:30 at night and Publix was out so they offered to take an order and cut them for me the next day when they were delivered.
I know **** about stuff like that so he asked me what size and I asked what he recommended. He said he usually cut them 1 1/4" so I was like ok sounds good. Went to pick them up the next day and it was like getting 4 roasts - $85. Some dang good eating tho.
Some people are just ****ty hosts. Wife has a friend like this. They invite people over for cookouts and tell you what everyone owes. When we invite people over I say bring yourself and that's it. That's how I run a cookout. I didn't have to go anywhere, I can drink as much as I want and don't have to drive, etc. All you can do is invite them over, show em how to do it right, and hope they catch on.
So my wife and I are friends with numerous other couples here in Las Vegas but there is one couple we spend more time with. So the wife is really cool but the husband and I really have nothing in common. So this past weekend they invited us over to grill out and have some drinks. There were 6 people there and he just happened to be grilling. We had brought muscles to steam and I made skewers of bacon wrapped shrimp. So when I went to put the shrimp on the grill, he was only cooking 3 steaks. That's all he ended up making!!! He cut the 3 of them up in small pieces and 6 people shared 3 steaks....
I was a little pissed because I dropped about $120 in seafood and we always have them over for thanksgiving and drop like $300-$400 in food and they bring a dip and what they drink.
As a man I would think he would provide enough steaks for everyone to have one but he didn't. Should I bring this up?? I find it strange and cheap. I know he makes good money cause he talks about it. I guess I'm just tired of dropping the majority of money on someone I really don't have that much in common with but our wives are best friends...
Any suggestions??
