Although it’s sleeting here today (and freezing rain, and snowing now and then,) the weatherman is forecasting 64 degrees tomorrow! I’m ready! I’m getting out the grill!
I’ve spent two days thinking about what that first grilled meal is going to be, so I’ll be prepared when that warmth strikes. I’ve got my shorts all picked out, and my sandals dusted off. Cleaning up the iced tea maker, and lemons are on my grocery list. I’m thinking marinated london broil sounds tasty, along with some pocket potatoes, roasted with garlic and rosemary…maybe a little sprinkling of dill. Mmmmm….I can smell it already! Maybe I’ll even whip up a fresh berry salad for the occasion! Oooo—with fresh whipped cream on top! Yeah, that’s what I’ll do!
AND we’ll walk to the local ice cream shop for dessert! My girls begged me to take them on opening day (Saturday) but I couldn’t bring myself to get bundled up in 28 degree weather to sit at a picnic table and eat an ice cream cone. Call me crazy.
Gonna get an extra super tall vanilla softy, dipped in chocolate and sprinkles…..Mmmmm! And the babe’s gonna LOVE his first taste of summery yum! I can hardly wait!
