Memorial Day BBQ Roundup 2017
For most of us Memorial Day marks the “unofficial” start of summer which means just one thing: It’s time to crank up the grill and get cookin’. I love to grill. I love all the delicious flavors created by grilling. Food tastes so much better. I’ve gathered a few of my favorite outdoor dining ideas from the blog including grilled meats and vegetables, salads and desserts. I’ve got you covered. I hope your holiday weekend is full of fun with family and bright sunshine. Sounds perfect doesn’t it? As for my Memorial Day, my daughter and I will be flying home from a fun weekend in New York City to celebrate her senior year (more on that later; weep, weep). I’ll likely be too exhausted to do much more than crash, but I’ll be thinking of you as you enjoy your holiday fun!
