Welcome to our first July episode of SLAW Weekly, where 4 of us spice up our office lunch once a week, most weeks. Its Spa Day and based on texts and e-mails received from Spa yesterday, i knew what was coming our way.  Well, it was that and much more.  Slaw started on time, and by the time I reached SLAW table, everything was setup nicely. 
Spa brought:
MAIN COURSE: Grass Fed Boneless Rib-eye marianated in Slatherin Sauce (Original)
CHEESE: Prairie Breeze Cheddar
SALAD: Tossed Salad with Tomato, Red Onion, Cucumber, Mushrooms, Dried Cranberries, and Sliced Almonds.
DESSERT: Red and Blue Cookies (in honor of 4th of July)
Here is what I saw when i walked in.  Lunch ready!

Lunch was DELICIOUS and HEALTHY.  Less on carbs and high on protein and taste (ignore those cookies for now). Now here is why lunch was delicious.  First of all everything was hand selected or prepared by Spa.  She put alot of thought into it.  Starting with sauce for the rib-eye.  It was Slatherin Sauce  and like they say Slather it on. http://slatheriton.com/

Second, Spa prepared the steak on 4th of July.  She went to her local butcher in Brooklyn and consulted on meat. Once home, she prepped the meat and took pictures (posted on this blog yesterday).  After hours of cook time, Rib-Eye was ready to be sliced up.  To ensure perfection she even ate some of it last night. Now that's some dedication.   

On to Cheese.  The Prairie Breeze Cheedar was delicious. Milton Creamery gets two thumbs up from Team SLAW.

Besides food, our in-house DJ Cash mixed up our office lunch with some 80's tunes.  Today's song was Jukebox (Don't Put Another Dime) by The Flirts. Link: http://youtu.be/Kohs_nlQzpM

So there we have it.  An office lunch with great food, good music, company and the best part, Spa loved doing all the prep and cooking.  Although if I somewhat quote Cash, this SLAW would be perfect if there was atleast one more cookie each and a cup of coffee.  Maybe next time Cash.

Almost forgot, Mr X did describe how Mrs Cash did her hair back in the 80's (this while we watched the Flirts sing JukeBox).  Front straight up (thinking gel) and back buzz cut. And yes yes, I as always happily took away the leftovers as my pre-dinner snack.  Good stuff.
