Food That Tastes Particularly Good in the Summertime

 Wednesday, June 10, 2026

Very warm and very humid today and yesterday. We've had the central air on for the first time this season. Dale and I were craving hamburgers today so we headed to Lund's and got ourselves a couple of 'em and grilled 'em up!! They tasted so good and so did the cole slaw, potato salad, and baked beans. It's feeling like summer for sure.

Yummy.

Brats At Last

 Monday, May 25, 2026

We stopped by the store ealier today and picked up some more brats. Dale cooked them up on the grill...

...and they were delicious.

We also had baked beans, cole slaw, and potato salad. It's really starting to feel like summer. 

Cigar, Cocktails, and Then Dinner

 Sunday, May 24, 2026

Cigar and an Old Fashioned in the back yard this afternoon. As we got closer to dinner Dale joined me. He had a glass of wine. 

Beautiful day to sit in the yard. It was warm enough to feel like summer rather than spring. We were gonna use our new grill and make some brats we got just a week ago. They were fully packaged and in the fridge, however, when Dale opened them up the stank that was released was so nasty there was no way we were gonna eat 'em. And, they were still a few days away from the best-if-used-by day too! Dale had just gone to the store to pick up the fixings he was gonna make with the brats and, understandably, didn't feel like going back. However, he did grill up the asparagus for tonights dinner and we ate it as an appetizer. We ordered Chinese from our neighborhood take-out place. It was delicious. We'll pick up some more brats tomorrow.
