LUMBERTON — Her’s another in “How I Do It” shorty.
If your wife is anything like mine, she takes the weekends off and puts me in charge of meals.
My go to is always steak and asparagus.
But while I could spend the next few paragraphs talking about the techniques of grilling steak, jut Google it.
Instead, I’m sharing a list of music I listen to when I’m making my favorite dinner.
As I’ve said before, any task — even thoses you enjoy (such as grilling steak) is made more enjoyable with a soundtrack. So, here is a quick list of my “steak music.”

‘Menopause the Musical’ is back
Here is some promotional material from an upcoming Broadway musical coming April 27 to the GPAC.
“Five years after their chance encounter in a department store, we set sail on a cruise ship with our beloved ladies for more high-jinks on the high seas.
“Menopause The Musical 2: Cruising Through The Change” is a hilarious and heartfelt look at the joys of menopause and friendship — plus hot flashes, mood swings, and memory lapses.
“This trip of self-discovery is backed by a new soundtrack of toe-tapping parodied hits from the ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s.
“For these four ladies, menopause was not the end, but the beginning of a beautiful friendship where love conquers all, and friendships never fail.
“It’s not necessary to see the first “Menopause” musical; the sequel invites new audiences, as the characters from the original are strengthened as they support one another through the chaos of dating, grandchildren, hot flashes, weight gain, and more. They celebrate the importance of friendship.
“The musical parodies classic hits of the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s – for example, “Holding Out For A Hero” becomes “Holding Out For A Vino,” “That’s Amore” transforms into “That’s Your Hormones,” “But I Do” switches to “I Don’t Know Why I Love Him,” and “Disco Inferno” becomes “AC Inferno.”
