So we were on this little weekend getaway and nothing fancy at all, just us trying to relax and eat good food, and of course, I had this idea in my head like why not cook something special instead of ordering food again, and everyone looked at me like, ” Really now, but I was like, ” Trust me on this one

And guess what my first try well it wasn’t perfect at all because I almost burned the garlic and the steak was a bit overcooked and I remember thinking wow typical me messing things up at the worst time but then something surprising happened because the smell alone made everyone come into the kitchen asking what’s cooking and suddenly it didn’t even matter that it wasn’t perfect
