Season of Grilling

Jord finally unboxed the grill and got it ready for the season. I’ve only had charcoal on my grocery list for the last month, but Jord kept telling me not yet. I was so anxious to have a real grill! We’ve been using a little Smoky Joe for the last five years since we didn’t have space for anything larger at the apartment. We donated that to Sarah and went out in search for a grown-up version. I thought Jord would be interested in a fancy apparatus, but when it came down to it he chose a classic Weber.

I had grand ideas of hosting a BBQ to kick-off the summer with family and friends. Who was I kidding - we kept it simple the first time around with just hot dogs, chicken and shrimp for two. We don’t have outdoor furniture or even a suitable space in the backyard to plop down. I guess we’ll have to wait to throw any summer parties until I can find some acceptable outdoor furnishings. In the meantime, we’ll continue our ritual of grilling every Sunday for just us two.
