>>>>Between medium-well and well huh? Once upon a time I used to order my steaks really well done. When the server asked how I would like my steak, I would say, "I want to be able to write on the sidewalk with it." My tastes have changed, and now for me the perfect steak is between medium and medium-rare. I find it far more tender, juicy and flavourful that way. Damn! now I've made myself really hungry, and hospital food just falls a little short somehow.

>>Are you kidding? Hospital food is getting better all the time. Last night for dinner, I had something that very closely resembled chicken. And, with a little imagination, the grey jelly-like substance on it could very well have been mistaken for gravy.

>Is the hospital roast beef still as green as I remember?.

I haven't had the nerve to try roast beef yet. I keep picturing something from a shoe repair shop.
