Mike the BBQ Chef

We have used the Webber BBQ grill sooo much this summer. It’s really nice to cook outdoors and keep the kitchen nice and cool. Mike has been perfecting his grilling technique and last night we had a great dinner – all prepared on the grill.


Mike firin’ up the briquettes in my lovely apron.


Everything’s cooking...steak for Mike, salmon for me, roasted corn and skewers of red potatoes and onions.


Time to eat!

love the apron. everything looks delicious. wish i'd remembered to give you that bag of charcoal i told you about. i will try not to forget next time.

going to the ice caves with the neighbors today. they've never been there and since we weren't able to going camping, it will be fun to at least show them around.

have a great weekend. i'll e-mail soon.

I love that purposeful look on Mike's face, he looks like quite the chef!

teresa - Ahhh yes, the cow spot apron...I have a whole collection of cow spot stuff. I used it as a marketing tool in my real estate business. I should post about that some day.

Bliss - Yes, Mike enjoys his BBQ...he is doing so much better than when we were in Guaymas. And if he wants to cook I say that's fine with me! And I'm glad you saw the "teresa post." Afterall, it was your blog that "introduced" me to her!

That looks delish Cynthia and Mike really looks like "Thee Chef" in that apron. He looks so serious. I like the life you and Mike lead Cynthia. Can I come for dinner now?? Tee Hee. Have a great Sunday and week ahead. Hope you enjoyed your din din. Take care.

......and some apples for dessert. It took me a while for my eyes to adjust and not see them in 3D. It's the heat, I tell you.

Señor Zapata – No invite is necessary for you. You and Lady Zapata are welcome at any time.

Gloria – And you and your hubbers are also welcome at Casa Nickell! And I see that your Just Faces project (painting 40 faces in 40 days) is coming right along…nice job. You are very disciplined.

Maria – We love those placemats! We brought them from Salem, Oregon and were able to get 1 more matching one here in Seattle. How you can stand that San Carlos summer heat (on the water no less) is beyond me. It’s good to hear from you!
