A Night with the “Bigstew”

My guy best friend Alex also known as The Bigstew came to pick me up to go to the gym last night. I was excited because I had turkey burgers marinating in the fridge so we can have a nice dinner when we were done. We worked out LEGS together. It’s always a pleasure to workout with The Bigstew, he is super knowledgeable, hard worker, fun to be around with and last but not least he pushes me to my limits. I got in his face a couple of times last night and pushed him as hard as he pushed me. After a long two hour workout I was pooped and very light headed, but couldn’t wait to get home to cook my turkey burgers. I put my skillet on med/high heat in order to get the pan hot. I forgot to turn down the heat after I put the burgers in. Suddenly, after a few minutes I couldn’t even see Alex’s face because of all the smoke. I thought my house was on fire. But no…it was the burgers. Of course Alex gave me crap about it, but as usual he will eat anything which I think it is awesome. At least he still thought they were yummy. He called up his mom aka Martha and told her what happened, she is a trip and we are very much a like. LOL I hope some day when I have kids, my kids grow up to eat anything and everything.
