Halfway Through September Weekend Recap
Howdy-eth Do-eth? Anyone else in the 90's today and the rest of this week? 🤬 It's like summer is getting out its last wrath or something. Not to say when the calendar flips to 'official' Fall that it will suddenly drop in temps but I did see low 80's on the horizon even though my body is quite ready for 60's, sweatshirts and fuzzy socks. But I know at least one or two Indian summers or whatever people younger than me in the PC realm call Satan bursts await in October. I am happy to say I was able to get into the basement Friday and that pic from Friday's post is actually a reality on top! It still looks like steaming garbage on the floor but I do what I can. Saturday we decided to drive and find a Town de la Podunk and see what we could get into. When we arrived at said place, we had a swing and a miss for an old fashioned donut shop. For the love of God, they are not dinner rolls dunked in DQ chocolate dip cone sauce....
All of those are my must haves for sure. Potato salad would have been the only extra side at cookouts when I was a kid and I didn't like it much as a kid but sure love it as an adult.
ReplyDeleteWe get 95% ground chuck, the Hebrew beef dogs. Always get poppy seed dog buns. My mom makes the potato salad, everything is chopped super fine. So fabulous!
ReplyDeleteWe have not cooked out once yet this entire year, which is so unusual because that was about 75% of our cooking no matter what the season. But schedules haven't allowed for it so far. When we do grill, it's steaks, chicken, pork chops that I make a fresh pico de gallo for (yum!), burgers, and when the temps are comfortable, I make a cheesy Italian loaf that is amazing on the grill. Tomato and onion salad is on the side if we do cook any type of hot dogs or sausages because I love to put that on the bun. I agree with Dawn...poppy seed buns all the way!
ReplyDeleteSteak and brats! Also, baked potatoes!
