Grill baby grill

We have a grill!

This weekend's pleasant abundance of barbecued delicacies inspired us on our way back from Portland (did I mention I went to Portland? I went to Portland.) and we stopped at a Lowe's to check out our options. We ended up picking out a nice portable charcoal grill on a semi-collapsible stand instead of a tiny table-top version, and set it up Tuesday evening for the inaugural grill. On the menu? Cumin and olive oil cauliflower kababs and salmon, with spinach cous cous on the side. It'll take a bit of finagling to figure out how to get the temperature up faster, but even if I have to wait 45 minutes for salmon again it was totally worth it. I'll just be sure not to skewer my fingertips next time on any goll-durned cauliflower.

Tomorrow we leave for Philadephia and the Devon Horse Show. Now where did I put my jodhpurs...
