Affordable Labels
Wine bottles are just a pain in the ass. What I am on about is the volume, 750ml, is a bit too much to be healthy for a single person and yet not enough for two people in a sitting.

McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning Allegro Marinade Good meat (avoid big box stores like Walmart) Season both sides of the meat with the seasoning and pat to stick the seasoning down. Place the meat in a ziplock… Read more →
