    I am going to try pairing some mulberry wood with chicken legs and thighs after I get done tilling the garden. The old lady bundled up a bunch of mulberry branches when we took a tree down a few weeks ago.

    We did a big batch of burgers and dogs over some hickory on the keyhole last night, gonna do a whole SLEW of chicken with vinegar/garlic spray over applewood tomorrow.......mmmmmm.

    Let's not forget why we celebrate this holiday everyone.....A lot of men and women died for our country. Those flags on the headstones at your local cemetery mean A LOT MORE than any of us can even imagine...

    God bless you all and have a safe Memorial Day weekend....

    I cooked a grilled cheese over the fire pit last night. I was sitting by the fire and the thought/craving hit me. It was hella good.

    Right where I want to be.
    It's already gone, but I did chicken breasts on the gas grill tonight.
    Nice big salad to go with.
    Perfect meal.
    I know.....couldn't have possibly happened.
    I'm pic-less on this. The rest of the pics look great.

    I remember back in 4th grade ( looooong time ago, and far, far away) having a Memorial service at the local Cemetery.
    I was tasked with reciting a poem. Don't remember the poem, but I do remember why we were there.
    God bless all service men and women (and families) who put their lives out there for the rest of us.

    I wouldnt mind a steak once in a while but its just too expensive! Even hamburg runs about $5/lb for the 93% meat blend.
    I spend about $125/month on groceries.
