The Grill Master

We have been having the most beautiful weather here in Seattle. The days are cool with lots of warm sunshine and lovely little breezes every now and then. It definitely is a treat to be able to enjoy being outside during the summer. Contrary to popular belief, it really does not rain that much in Seattle, especially not during summer. I think since we have been up here, it's rained maybe a couple times, but even then, it wasn't much.

In any event, we have been trying to meet up with Rob and Darcy since we've gotten up here, but they are apparently the two busiest people on earth! When Glenn called them, they pretty much said there were two days they were available to hang out. We took them up this last weekend and we had a BBQ over at our place. The morning of our BBQ, Glenn and I went down to Pike's Market to pick up all our fresh produce. It was so insanely crowded. I'm not sure what we were thinking, going down there on a Saturday morning. Anyway, we ended up coming home with tons of stuff. We got lots of fresh sweet corn, a head of broccoli, some asparagus, some wax beans, and a lemon. I love having all this yummy fresh produce just a short walk away from home.

Glenn is quite a skilled griller, or whatever you call a person who grills. The chicken was soooo juicy and perfectly cooked, and the corn was really yummy. I made the pasta salad. Not much skill involved there. LOL. Everyone enjoyed their food, we all enjoyed the company, and before they left we made sure to rope them in to a board game and we played Ticket to Ride. Glenn actually beat me by a few points! Earlier in the morning though, we played the Nordic Countries version of the game and I whooped his butt.

I hope everyone is doing well. We are happy as can be here, and I am about to head off to a job interview right now! :o)
