Memorial Day Weekend

We had a relaxing Memorial Day weekend. No big cookout this year. On Saturday, we went to Cooper Vineyards for ‘Lucy’s Day’. Lucy is the hound they adopted from the SPCA. So we took the kids along. And since we still had Murphy, that made two SPCA dogs for us. The greys were a big hit. I always forget that for most people, greyhounds are still a rare site. We stayed for a little over an hour until the guys looked like they had had enough of the heat. We stopped off at the Miller Farm on the way back to pick up some fresh local goods. We got some squash, zucchini and some local meats (ground steak and baby back ribs). Gotta have some stuff to grill for the weekend. The ground steak burgers were great. We had the ribs for Memorial Day. They were my first attempt at slow cooking baby backs on the grill, and they were pretty tasty too. I think my next venture will be big ol’ beef ribs. Then I may move on to paella. That may consist of me needing to buy a special paella pan :)
