One day I stumbled on a YouTube video that promised an excellent steak dinner, in my hotel room – cooked with an iron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yes, clothes iron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I watched the video and decided to try it, as a lark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I thought I would amaze Jody – or at least make him laugh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I hid my make-shift kitchen behind a half-wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The smell of seared beef wafting through the room certainly caught his attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When I presented him with a perfectly seared steak dinner he wondered how I did it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Combined with a Caesar salad, a glass of Cabernet, and a finale of dark chocolate he was impressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When I held up the iron, he was even more impressed…and made me promise not to tell our friends.<\/p>\n\n\n
