I made brats, hamburgers and chicken over a charcoal fire with frash rosemary added for smoke flavor....served with baked beans, spicy Korean slaw, potato salad, very tender and sweet corn....(and rice )
Kimba- I am feeling the same way. I think I am getting burnt out from the computer. I go through the responses and I just don't feel like typing anything.
I do miss the daily back and forth but I just might need a break. Here's reps to all of my foodie friends. I wish I could send out group reps becasue right now I just don't feel up to typing anymore.
Whoosh, tired tonight, and it's only Monday. And the long days begin....
I'm sure sorry to hear of Kelsie's computer woes - that's something that scares me, too. I had a warning a couple of weeks ago - got the Scary Blue Screen o' Death with a "Kernel Stack" error, which I am told is even worse than General Chaos - and as soon as it rebooted, I demanded that my spouse give me step-by-step instructions for copying all of my files off to CDs. Did that last week, then our daughter the Tech Goddess (aptly named, as she is less than a year away from earning her Bachelor's in IT Networking/Security) took my laptop away for a day and worked some kind of magic on it so it runs like a little bunny now. Sure wish I could ship the T-G down to Kelsie for some in-person tech support!
Say, Cyn, your beloved man's woes sound like they could be serious, and I join the chorus of "knock 'im out and haul his heinie to the doctor" - that could just be too much salt in the diet, or it could be something a whole lot more ominous. Play that good old "aw, honey, if you won't do it for yourself, will you do it for me?" card, bat your eyes at him, and tell him if it's nothing to be concerned about, he's free to laugh at your fears - AFTER the doctor says he's ok.
We got a bit of a surprise in the mail today. Spouse's brother sent him a b-day card, and happened to mention in passing that their younger daughter got married about four months back. Aaaaaaaaallll-righty-then. This is the same branch of the family that didn't tell anyone else that their other daughter was in intensive care for ten days until four days after she died, so I guess it's all much of a muchness. But it still baffles us. They say you can't pick your family, but I guess you can un-pick them. And that seems to be what they've done with everyone in my spouse's family. Funny thing is, though, that our kids have connected with two of their kids through Facebook, and are exchanging all sorts of conversation that would probably horrify the parents if they knew about it. No, I don't take any sort of evil glee in that.... not at all, not a bit.
Supper tonight was a hot-n-garlicky shrimp stir-fry, very tasty, with the last of the sugared-down strawberries from Saturday for dessert. Tasty, satisfying, and not even too terribly sinful.
Dishes await, then bed, so I'll bid you all goodnight. Have a wonderful week, health and good food to all!
OK....Letting you all know now I have a very busy week ahead and am fine I will not be online much this week but we are going to be VERY busy!!!! LOL.... tonight was a total FRIDGE cleanout for dinner... tomorrow...???? Don't know... Hubby has the week off and we have a wedding and rehearsal dinner this week.... tons of food to be had!!!! Have a great week!!!!!!!!! Enjoy yourselves and I will catch up when I have time....... but know I am alive and well.... hahaha....

SCGuy you may miss breakfast a lot but your suppers sound good.
PassTheChocolate you'll have to explain to me what Panzanella is I don't watch Ina and have terrible times with Internet searching.

Think it could be just the time of year where we all are busier outside too. At least that is what is happening with me keeping me away from the computer. Then when I do get online my threads are so long it takes forever to read them all it seems. I've noticed in some of my threads the "flow" in them has changed too so I am just chalking it up to being summer busy times.
Tonight we had our first handful of green beans out of the garden and I do mean a large handful. I must of been busy when I put them on to cook because I over salted them b-a-d-l-y. DD ate them she likes salty things. Made tuna casserole as I have a large pot of ham & beans cooking also. Will finish cooking them tomorrow then divide them up to take to a few people plus us.
MWBW sorry you are getting ready for the very busy season try to get some rest to endure it.
Ha! My DH gets up after me in the mornings and I'm already thinking about dinner when he gets up after reading here. I ask him what he feel like for dinner and he just kinda growls and says "coffee"!!
