    Short and sweet and Lemongrass Beef recipe

    This is going to be a short post. Been having a busy weekend. Went to the Island Creek Oyster Festival yesterday and it was amazing. I will post about it this week. Today is a bloggers potluck and I get to meet lots of new people. I will post about that too.

    For now here is a Lemongrass Beef recipe that went with our Cambodian dinner. This is good and makes a good simple meal served along with some rice.

    Really simple marinade and you got most of the work done.
