But grilling here in summer is an unpleasant task, it has been 108 degrees for almost a week. I think your temps are much better being farther north and near the ocean. Yes, it is a bit cooler here. It was over 90 yesterday, which for this area is very hot. No air conditioning...but today it was a bit cooler. It doesn't get as cold here in winter as in IN, but it does get too cold to comfortably grill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Administrators HappyChristian Posted July 24, 2018 Lady Administrators Share Posted July 24, 2018 We grilled again tonight. Hubs cooked burgers, keilbasa, and fish. He enjoyed his supper. =D And our beef is at the butcher's. We'll be getting it on Monday. So, more grilling. =D Jim_Alaska 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Administrators HappyChristian Posted August 5, 2018 Lady Administrators Share Posted August 5, 2018 Potluck at church today. Sadly, I will be missing it. I've been sick for a couple of weeks now with a pretty bad cold. Ugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted August 5, 2018 Administrators Share Posted August 5, 2018 Sorry about your cold HC. Summer colds are the worst because that is always when all the good stuff goes on that you miss. I'm batching it tonight but have every intention of grilling burgers for myself. The deer here, so close to the river are amazing. They walk right by me within a few feet while I am grilling, take a quick look and move on for more apples. My presence doesn't bother them one bit.

Advanced Member Invicta Posted August 6, 2018 Advanced Member Share Posted August 6, 2018 Baked beans with chorizo slices on toats sprnled with grated Cheddar cheese on top. Too hot to have anything but the toaster and micowave on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted August 6, 2018 Administrators Share Posted August 6, 2018 I can't imagine it being too hot in England, but I have never been there, only heard about its weather. How hot was it Invicta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Administrators HappyChristian Posted August 7, 2018 Lady Administrators Share Posted August 7, 2018 We are grilling tonight. Steaks and burgers - from our just-received beef. First of the batch. And our son is coming over for dinner. Looking forward to that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How hot was it Invicta Nowhere near as hot as there. but it is far too hot for me and too humid, It has cooled down the last couple of days, I have to keep out of the sun as I burn easily. Because of my skin condition I have to always wear a hat when I am outsude. I don;t know what the temperature was, a bit over 30C I suppose, they had 45C on Portugal several days ago. I wouldn't have survived that. Edited August 8, 2018 by Invicta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted August 9, 2018 Administrators Share Posted August 9, 2018 Here in northern California we have had a month of 100F or over. We also have lot of smoke from forest fires. It never goes away because of the great number of fires. It does vary some depending on wind direction. Sorry to all for posting off topic, I should know better. Invicta 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cous cous is actually North African, but it is popular in France. I do like French food. Here we are about ½ way between London and Calais, including the channel. Although I always worked in London, I rarely go there now. Not at all since my daughter and her family moved from Battersea to Ashford, much nearer here. We often go to Calais for the day. It is much easier driving and probably much cheaper than going to London by the time you have paid the congestion charge, the polution charge and parking.

Lady Administrators HappyChristian Posted August 18, 2018 Lady Administrators Share Posted August 18, 2018 We celebrated our 32nd anniversary this week. It was actually Thursday, so my hubs grilled steak and burgers (our son was supposed to come over but was unable to). Hubs wanted to go out for dinner, too, though, so yesterday we went to Silverdale (the "big" city closest to us...it has places like Olive Garden...). We ate at Red Lobster. We love their Chicken alfredo linguine. We shared a key lime cheesecake-ish dessert. It was delicious, but just spending time with my hubs was priceless. It was an adventurous journey...I'm posting the details in another thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
