Memorial Day BBQ Roundup 2017

For most of us Memorial Day marks the “unofficial” start of summer which means just one thing:  It’s time to crank up the grill and get cookin’.  I love to grill.  I love all the delicious flavors created by grilling.  Food tastes so much better.  I’ve gathered a few of my favorite outdoor dining ideas from the blog including grilled meats and vegetables, salads and desserts.  I’ve got you covered.  I hope your holiday weekend is full of fun with family and bright sunshine.  Sounds perfect doesn’t it?  As for my Memorial Day, my daughter and I will be flying home from a fun weekend in New York City to celebrate her senior year (more on that later; weep, weep).  I’ll likely be too exhausted to do much more than crash, but I’ll be thinking of you as you enjoy your holiday fun!
