It actually faired pretty well with the steak!

Yes–the rain. I love it, though I prefer listening to it while having a nice cup of coffee indoors. =)

I love the stuff and it’s usually great value. With steak though? That’s surprising! What do you think made that work?

And, as a Pacific Northwest native I have to say rain is also underrated. :)
