Fire-Works...

Okay, so Chris and I attempted to "grill out" for the first time alone in our new place here in the lovely new home...

and we almost set the house on fire. Not quite that literally, but you could smell fire in the house and the grill was in flamage...

I had the brilliant idea to buy a slab of heat and eat extra meaty baby back ribs from the Super Target (this is just an aside - but Jen Wade - I am HOOKED on ST!!! The one here rocks!) and some corn on the cob, too. So, we followed the directions wrapping everything in foil being diligent to follow exactly as we'd never attempted anything other than hot dogs and chicken on the grill before. So, we fire up the grill and load it all on and then the cardinal error of a rookie...we walked away...oh, only for a minute...but as they say, that's all it takes! LOL!

So, Emma had a nice hot dog and chips for her first fourth of July dinner at our new house and Chris and I had charred baby backs and blackened corn on the cob.

Happy Fourth!

But it ended up being really good meat. Live and learn... :)

That grill has a history!

The history remains!! At least there wasn't a backfire when it lit up... ;)
