Attempt Number Two: Moroccan Strip Steaks

After attending my four year old Nephew's birthday party last week Saturday, I began to feel a little sick. I thought nothing of it, just the wear and tear of coming out of the holiday season.
Apparently, I was mistaken.
This was no side effect of stress...this was the side effect of hanging out with a dozen small children that are harbingers of communicative diseases!
So instead of preparing my Moroccan Dry rub and preparing my Niman Ranch Sirloin Strip Steaks like I had planned...I spent the day in bed watching the second season of the Tudors on DVD (Jonathan Rhys Meyers scares me. Kinda like the Sham-wow guy, but without the aggravated battery charges.)
Well, it's Thursday now. A LOT has happened in the span of just a few days, and I am now able to climb out from the yolk of illness and stress and take some time out to enjoy myself in my kitchen.
So tonight...
