creating sunshine

The weather has been gloomy. Dark, humid and gloomy. Some days it rains, some days just overcast.

I've been envious of those people blogging about picnics, summer and sun!

I decided to make my own sunshine. I bought some hamburger, added some chopped green onions and white onion. Added an egg and mixed everything up.

Then, since we're not allowed to cook on our lanai, I cooked up 4 patties in my frying pan on the stove.

I toasted some french rolls, and spread some mayo on them after they came out.

Then I put some sanchu (Korean lettuce), the patty and some kim chee. (I actually put a LOT of sanchu. Be sure to eat over your plate as the juices from the kim chee and burger will drip like crazy!)

I served this with some potato salad, leftover 3-bean salad and Leffe Brown beer.

I liked the beer (smokey and easy to drink but not watery) and it went nicely with everything.

Though the weather will be cloudy or rainy over the next week, these picnic foods cheered me up.
