Steak and Green beans

Another Sunday has come and gone.....along with it another tale. Now normally I talk about my family and how weird they can be about food or how they do something funny.. but this tale is all about "my man" Skinny. You see my family is "fluffy" or"healthy"...or "thin challenged"...or whatever you want to call it. We know how to eat and enjoy every bite of food that goes into our mouths. But my boy friend is a different story... he is thin, but he eats a lot.... like more than me in a day. He says it is his high metabolize,which I believe but someday it will slow down and he will have to beer belly and love handles, like the rest of us.
Anyway back to Sunday.... so since it is summer and the weather is usually great....The mother loves to grill, so normally we will have something from the grill for dinner... and this past weekend was no exception.... it was STEAK AND VEGGIE..... or specifically green bean, asparagus, and grilled peppers. The mother kind of went over board with the veggies..... she knows that everyone likes something different so she made them all. Plus they are all good for you, so the more veggies the better.... I guess she thought. So the grill is started and the meat is seasoned and heading for the grill. Everyone puts in their order for how they want their steaks cooked. Howie's is well done...his is the first to go on.....Next is The beau and Rands... medium please. Then comes Skinny's and mine.... medium Rare.....not to mention the mothers. Last but not least is A.B.... rare as can be... I think he leave it on the grill long enough for there to be slight grill marks on it... but you can still hear the cow moo-ing. Finally the food is on the table and we are ready to eat. Everyone is enjoying the meal..... we are talking and catching up on the previous week's activities, while also going over what is going on with everyone in the next couple of weeks. No one is really paying attentions to anyone else's food until Skinny..... asked for a second helping of green beans and his huge steak is gone..... this is a man who usually leaves food on his plate at dinner and never usually asked for seconds. But this night it was different....cause he loves.... and I mean he loves steak and GREEN BEANS. We all were shocked... I mean I make green bean at least a couple of times a week but I have never seen him eat so many.... my first thought was that he was just hungry,... but then the more I thought about it, maybe it was because they were fresh beans, instead of canned.
The best part was as we were clearing the table... there was still a half bowl of bean left, which he scooped up and continued to eat as his " dessert". It was crazy.... the only thing that the mother could say was " I knew you liked steak but now I know I should be making green beans on Sundays... that way I know you will eat a lot".
The best part of the whole evening...actually came the next day when Skinny was in the bathroom a ton of times.... from all the fiber he had had the night before.....see too much of a good thing can hurt you in the end.... literally!
