Grilling out, cooking out, or perhaps BBQing, which term do you use?\u00a0 Growing up we said BBQing but when I lived in NC, I quickly learned that if you said BBQ people expect a whole other type of item.\u00a0 So now it’s grill as in, “Hey let’s grill tonight.”<\/p>\n

Last night was a grill night!\u00a0 We have not sat outside and used the grill in a very long time.\u00a0 Dinner was all prepped and ready to go, the only thing I had to do was slice some potatoes for roasting.<\/p>\n

I sat with my laptop on the deck for a bit while waiting for my huns to wake up from his Sunday nap.\u00a0 When he got up we talked about getting dinner started because I was hungry.\u00a0 And I wanted some carby goodness.<\/p>\n

\"7<\/a><\/p>\n

7 grain pretzel sticks were perfect!\u00a0 I split this with Scott while we chatted.\u00a0 Then dinner!<\/p>\n

\"Steak<\/a><\/p>\n

I made a big honkin’ steak for Scott and had a small piece.<\/p>\n

\"Zucchini<\/a><\/p>\n

There were grilled zucchini slices.<\/p>\n

\"Eggplant<\/a><\/p>\n

Grilled eggplant slices.<\/p>\n

\"Green<\/a><\/p>\n

Also pepper and onion kabobs that got grilled.\u00a0 Peppers and onions go great with steak and potatoes!<\/p>\n

\"roasted<\/a>Roasted taters.<\/p>\n

\"Potatoes,Who loves their veggies?! ;)<\/p>\n

I had made coleslaw earlier but there was no room on my plate!\u00a0 I kicked almost all of that too!\u00a0 A few potatoes and peppers were left hanging around.<\/p>\n

Then I grabbed my laptop and poured myself a drink.<\/p>\n

\"Wine<\/a><\/p>\n

White wine + cranberry juice + seltzer + fruit = fun party drink!\u00a0 Sort of, it wasn’t quite what I was expecting but it was a nice drink with dessert built in.\u00a0 Fresh fruit can totally count as dessert!<\/p>\n

I think I have the basics of FB figured out.\u00a0 And I did figure out the link so you can find me here<\/a>.\u00a0 Whoo!<\/p>\n

\"Chocolate<\/a><\/p>\n

I had a few nibbles of dark chocolate chips with my drink and then by 11:30 I was off to bed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
