beef - its whats for dinner

ronnie called me randomly from work last week and asked if i wanted to go in with a group to buy a quarter of a cow.

as a girl that was raised on "homegrown" beef - i said yes.

(i'm sorry, but wal-mart beef is disgusting)

so $385 dollars later, ronnie and i have a ton of meat headed our way.

since our refrigerator is not big enough to hold all this, we decided to also purchase a deep freeze.

my mother and i spent most of the afternoon pricing and comparing freezers.  i decided that since i'm only 5'4 the chest freezers are too deep for me to comfortably use and i wanted an upright one (even though they are more expensive). 

sears ended up having the most options AND it was 15% off.  score.

we ended up with this kenmore upright.

for $405.

mother of pearl.

this is what i like to call an $800 steak dinner.

got beef?
