Feast has been feasted.

Dessert is still to come.

We are running behind on the feast!

But at least have Independence Day in the backgroundd

I want to show that but it's a rent or buy issue and we're still on Hamilton so....

Not this year.

Grilling on charcoal didn't work as planned but it was a good learning experience for me.

Good to look on the bright side

In fact, now that it's finally going, I have finished off the chicken on the grill (had to bake some of it) and am doing some bratwurst for an upcoming meal. As long as the coals are there.....

Nice. Food heree is ready

Enjoy!

Grilled Asparagus, Corn on the cob, and Ribs

NOM

I know right? I admit, did not think I'd like Aspragus, but grilled right? Nice

DH actually -likes- Asparagus when wrapped in prosciutto.

Mmm may have to try it that way at least once

Highly recommend. Toss the 'gus in olive oil/salt/pepper, wrap 3-4 stalks in a piece of prosciutto, and roast.

And about to vanish for a late 1776

Hugs Happy 4th

Heh. Tried to do some low key sparklers and pop its and smoke bombs with a sparkler fountain at the end.... didn't make it that far. Things got chased inside by the Big Neighborhood Bangs.

And tomorrow or so I'm going to make sure we have Benadryl for Jewel in the future. I wasn't sure if fireworks would set her off but.... yep. Again, all this storm and noise anxiety is relatively new.

Poor Jewel

Yeah, she's got her shirt on and is upstairs under DH's chair (with him in it).

DH is a good man

Well, yeah. She came down and shared her attack with me for a while till I thought to fill her Kong with spray cheese and cookie-treats. She's busy with that now.
