jmb3450's Journal, 11 May 14

Had a great day today. Purchased a gas grill with my step daughter then put it together for her. Had a nice cookout with my wife's 4 kids and got to play with our grandson. Then went to visit with my wife's niece and her kids. My wife is separated from her family so much of the time so times like this are special. The weather was perfect, I think the first day like this in Buffalo this year.

Food was wonderful, I'm full but right at my RDI, very pleased with that. We picked up some fresh blackberries at the store, they must be in season, I think they're the best we've had. Happy Mother's Day to all!

We bought a grill a few weeks back - and it is great for introducing more veggies into your diet - which mine was sorely lacking :-( Enjoy the grill!

You really should it is beautiful and most people are lovely. It's very expensive though we got a shock when we moved back a few years ago.

Sure I'd be glad to put it together :) My step daughter asked the sales clerk how long it would take to put together, he said about 30 minutes. I thought to myself "you liar", been there and done that, it takes that long to upack it and decipher the instructions. Took about 2 hrs to do it.

Sounds like the time my husband put together our daughters bike! All you need is a spanner and 10min we were told! 3 hours of obscene language and banging coming out of the shed and we had a bike with wobbly handles!

Re: bbq. A great meal to grill is to wrap fish in aluminium foil that way you don't need to add any fat in cooking and you can put chopped garlic and some thyme in with it to save on salt! It works best with naturally oily fish like barramundi and salmon!

Did some zucchini big slices brushed with olive oil and sprinkled with Pico de Gallo seasoning last night, and some partially baked smallish gold potatoes cut in half brushed with butter and a bit of salt and pepper. Yummy. Had also bought a small t bone not so yummy. Did them on my little portable grill. New one is still partially in the box. :)))

Njashka8, one of my favorite meals is salmon on the grill. I marinate it then spray a non-stick cooking grate with Pam and grill slightly to the side of the coals, grill top on, till just done. It's out of this world good!
