Beef Gyros With Seasoned Oven Fries. Music From Meiko.

Just to wake you up, how about these pillows to make one’s nap more exciting?

I saw that image over at today’s musical guest Meiko’s website. Her music and more after the recipe.

I LOVED this dinner.

Gyros always make me think of Seinfeld which always makes me smile.

You won’t have to rush out of the Subway to get these fantastic Gyros. Easy as pie to make at home.

The Oven Fries are the easiest ever and deeeee-licious. The perfect side.

Meiko is my musician of choice today.

Anyone who describes themselves as “Singer, Songwriter, Shit Talker, Lover, Fighter, Over User of The Word “Balls” is ace in my book. Bonus is that she’s got a recipe up on her Website. Turkey Balls. Mmmm…gobble gobble.

On to the music.

This video is for a song from the new album coming out on May 15th. Very cool….all those records….and I want her boots.

How Lucky We Are is from 2008. Slower and shows what an inviting voice Meiko has. One of my stand by favorites.
Meiko-How Lucky We Are

Check out Meiko on her Website, where you can also buy the music. Spend some time looking around. Meiko’s posts are pretty funny and then there is that Turkey Balls recipe to think about.

Cheers!
