Give the preggo lady her steak!

Today, for the 4th time this month, we bought steaks.
We bought really nice cuts today, a brand new thing of A-1 Cajun Marinade, and some charcoal.

We come home, marinade the steaks, and light the grill. The charcoal lights right up and looks good. We were trying out a new kind, and so far so good.

5 minutes later I came outside and the charcoal was ready? Already? I thought it was strange. We grabbed the steaks, threw them on the grill. The charcoal didn't even look like it was COOKING the steaks.

Leo flips the steaks, and they were barely cooked. The charcoal had COMPLETELY BURNED OUT. In 10 minutes. It had actually gotten COLD.

Our steaks were ruined. We spent half an hour trying to salvage the fire, so we wouldn't have to return them. Try as we might, there was not a thing we could do.

Off to Fry's we went, to return our steaks and that garbage charcoal. Leo worked there 2 years ago, so he knew the manager that was in. It was a relief, because she didn't make TOO big of a stink about it. You could just tell she was really, really unhappy.
We didn't want our money back, we just wanted to get new steaks and a different kind of charcoal. The meal was $30.00. I was not about to just waste it, to throw the steaks out. No way, no how. We switched the steaks and charcoal out and left, but it just sucked.
The last thing I wanted to do was go to Fry's and exchange our steaks when we should have been eating them. When we got home, we were too upset to even cook them. We'll grill them tomorrow, but urgh.

So, I had chicken nuggets and bbq sauce for dinner. (:

Not bad, but not my ribeye steak. ):
