Kickoff

We did a pre-Memorial Day celebration this evening. Invited Jilda's brother Ricky, his wife Debbie, Samantha, and Jordan over for supper.

Jilda chopped up some orange, yellow, and red peppers with Vidalia Onions. We have a grill basket that is perfect for grilling veggies. We tossed on some hotdogs and Conecuh Sausage. The Conecuh sausage comes from Conecuh County, Alabama which is south of Montgomery. I'm not sure they sell these "up north" which is a shame because they are scrumptious.

Normally I have a beer when I do grill work, but it was a little early, so I had some sweet tea instead.

Talking ceased when the food hit the table. The only sounds clicking forks, and grunts that made it sound as if it were a time before language fully developed.

It was a great way to kick off the holiday weekend.

  1. I love grilled veggies. I would have had the beer anyway. Beer and grilling goes well together.
    Have a great weekend.

  2. Those vegies look great. Beer? Not my tipple. And (we don't have it here) I suspect sweet tea isn't either.

  5. Wow, I haven't seen a griller like that in years - I think we used them to grill chops over an open fire. In the Olden Days. lol
