June 30- It’s a Short Week, After All!Not to go all Disney ride on you, but, it’s a short week, after all
Not to go all Disney ride on you, but, it’s a short week, after all
(NOT “small world!” believe it or not, I actually DID get stuck on that ride- it ground to a halt- but only for a minute, so I wasn’t totally brainwashed!) With this Friday off, and the three-day Fourth of July weekend this year, I’m guessing a lot of people either will be bailing out early this week- or just taking the week off.
I had a busy past few days- Friday we were in the studio, taping a bunch of stuff, Saturday was, of course, Flashback Weekend (more about that in tomorrow’s blog) and Sunday was the one day off I had to try to catch up on the usual weekend chores- so, getting that extra day later this week actually will be a welcome thing…
For a lot of people, the Fourth of July is kind of a warning day- that summer is already about a third over, and you’d better start taking advantage of it- or it will be gone faster than
the last cheeseburger left on the grill. Mmmm-cheeseburger. Speaking of which, I recently got some chipotle ketchup that is the perfect condiment for those cheeseburgers. Believe it or not, it comes from the barbeque and restaurant company owned by WWE wrestling announcer Jim “Good Ol’ J.R.” Ross. He also has some tasty barbeque sauces and even beef jerky-none of which leaves you with the sensation of being hit in the mouth with a steel folding chair-quite the opposite. If you’d like to check it out, go to jrsbarbq.com .
I always have enjoyed grilling- started doing it at my folks’ house, and they had a great built-in gas grill by their patio.
We’d cook all sorts of stuff there, and I liked doing the cooking.
I still enjoy it- though it almost seems that I do more of it when we’re on vacation than when we’re at home! I love to do barbeques country ribs- the ones without the bones. Another favorite is kabobs- with beef, chicken, or especially scallops.
Barbequed chicken and steaks are always a welcome addition to the diet…granted, the steak is not something I should have a lot, as a person with heart problems, but, once in a while…like…when I’m on vacation…I’ve even done barbequed salmon, which is much healthier for me, on the grill…but NEVER- I repeat NEVER- rubber chickens. Enough with that already!
So- let’s count down the few days until that 3-day weekend. Don’t worry- there will still be a Sven show in the air Saturday, holiday weekend or not!
