every holiday is made better with the power of Elvira |
Howdy, y'all!
I hope your Easter (or, if you're not celebrating Easter, your Sunday) is going well.
I doubt I'll get to post tonight, so I wanted to tag in and wish everyone a good end of the weekend, a lovely Monday, and all that jazz.
We met up with Jason and Amy at Amy's recently adopted church in Central Austin. My folks came down, as did CousinSue and her daughter, Ciara. Quite a nice church, Central Presbyterian. I was impressed.
From there we headed north to my folks' place and met up with some longtime family friends as well as Matt & Nicole. The KareBear put out an enormous spread that could have fed a small army, but we did it justice, I think. They've also installed a water feature in their backyard that I found kind of mind-blowing. Basically, not having a small creek in the backyard was not going to suit The Admiral, and so, now he's got one.
All in all, a lovely day.
Yesterday I finally broke down and made the switch to propane. I am now the proud owner of a Weber 210 Spirit. My summer grilling is looking like it will not be the char-cooked mess of the last few years.
Anyhow, off to the store I go to get some meat to throw on the grill this evening. Wish me luck on the Maiden Voyage of the Spirit 210!
Grill it, Grill it good!
ReplyDeleteYou will all be glad to know that the first go-round on the Spirit 210 went off exceedingly well, even if I was bumped as grill master by Matty and his insistence that I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to food and flame (he's kind of right).
ReplyDeleteWe managed two kinds of chicken, potatoes, vegetable kababs, and corn. I think we're all sold on the smooth power of propane.
