Summer Cookin'

I love summer. I love the sunshine, the green grass, working in my garden, going for walks, riding bikes, and wading at the beach. But what do I love most about summer? Barbecue!

Everyone loved it and said it's a keeper! It was tasty. And big . . . still have some left. In fact, I think I shall go and sneak myself a piece right now.



Dinner last night: heavenly halibut, cous cous, peas, green salad
